WINBIO_E_DATABASE_READ_ERROR

WINBIO_E_DATABASE_READ_ERROR means a read operation against the biometric template database failed. The actual cause is usually below WBF: storage I/O, device communication, permissions, or a provider defect.

What to check

  • Find the first underlying storage-adapter, device, or file-system error at the same timestamp.
  • Check that the backing store remains available and that the biometric unit did not disconnect.
  • Do not confuse this with a biometric non-match; matching may not have begun at all.
