I wonder if there are other people that are having this issue.
I think, ever since I upgraded to catalina, my touch ID does not work. I set it up and then when I wake up my macbook pro the next day then the touch ID configuration is gone or deleted and I have to enrol again.
This is very frustrating. Anyone else had/have this issue?
Thanx
Regards

Hey there dracosveen,
Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities. I understand you’re having issues with Touch ID on your Mac. I’ll be happy to help.
Have you tried restarting or taken any other steps for this? If not, start by powering your Mac off and back on:

If the issue continues, do an SMC and NVRAM reset on your Mac and test again:

Reset NVRAM or PRAM on your Mac
Also, test this in a new user account as well and see if the issue continues there. This can further isolate the cause of this:

Hello,
Thank you for the reply.
It seems that the NVRAM reset was the solution. I haven't had a problem since I did that.
Thank you
