Hi, After the Big Sur update, I can't use my Touch ID for unlocking my computer and password auto fill even though the option is enabled in the Touch ID System Preferences pane. What is going on? That is three problems I have come across with this Big Sur OS. Can anyone help me please?

toggle preferences and come back to your preferred settings.
Touch ID —Try resetting the SMC https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201295
if no resolve Try resetting NVRAM/PRAM http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1379
If you still have an issue you can remove all finger prints and set it back up.

Resetting the SMC fixed this issue. Thanks!
Deleted my save fingerprints and now I cannot set new ones.
