When you do malware analysis of documents or office files, it is important to have Microsoft Office installed in your Lab machine. I am using flare VM and it doesn't comes with MS Office. Since Microsoft is promoting Microsoft 365 over the offline version, finding the offline installer is not that easy. Here is the list of genuine Microsoft links to download the office .img files.

The fingerprint reader on my laptop was not working properly since last couple of month. Suspecting after some update from Microsoft. It was not completely working, sometimes it work perfectly and often sometimes not. Especially after my laptop goes sleep.
So i uninstalled and reinstalled the driver with the latest update, did some googling and couldn't get a solution. However, i though of checking the power management settings. And unchecked the "Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power" under the device's power management (From Device Manager). The issue is fixed and the fingerprint reader is working fine.
Thought of sharing this as some of my friends had the same issue. Also i can see a lot of queries in the internet regarding this fingerprint reader malfunction. Always keep your OS and the drivers up to date and don't download any third party tools to fix issues with your machine.
