Touch ID IS a MAC Failure!!!!

Touch ID does not work after doing everything Apple has suggested. I have scanned 3 of my fingers. OS is up to date. I have followed Apple suggestions on checking my system preferences, cleaned my finger scanner, rebooted my machine multiple times, and it still does not work consistently. It works twice out of ten times. This MacBook Pro is less than a year old. Any Suggestions?


Should never have bought this MacBook Pro. I am so frustrated with the TouchID.

MacBook Pro 15″, macOS 11.6

Refer to these suggestions: If Touch ID isn't working on your Mac - Apple Support. In Step 6 you can register the same finger multiple times. Touch ID won't know or care if it's the same finger. Perhaps that will work.
