WINBIO_E_DATABASE_CANT_CREATE

WINBIO_E_DATABASE_CANT_CREATE means the storage adapter could not create the biometric template database required by the selected unit. In WBF, the storage adapter owns template database operations.

What to check

  • Check the configured storage location, its availability, permissions, and free space.
  • Review the vendor biometric driver and storage-adapter logs for the underlying file or device error.
  • Do not create or edit biometric template files manually; repair the driver or enrollment configuration instead.
