Touch ID on MacBook Air

I've read and tried many of the suggestions. My fingerprint ID was working. Now it is not. I have a new MacBook Air, Sonoma 14.4.1.

Touch ID is not working and if it does it is really slow MacBook Pro M2 My touch ID is not working on my MacBook Pro and if it does work it is very slow. I have deleted the fingerprint multiple times. One thing I notice when I go to add my fingerprint back in it takes a really long time to recognize it. Once it finally does it's the same outcome. I have shutdown the computer multiple times and same thing. I have updated to Sonoma 14.1.1 so not sure if that has anything to do with it but I noticed it after the updates.

Touch ID not working since update macOS 13.5.1 Firstly the touch Id stopped unlocking mac. So I tried restarting, didn't work. Then I tried to remove existing fingerprints, and register new fingerprints, but couldn't add any. It gives failure when trying to register fingerprint. Failed Unable to complete Touch ID enrolment. Please go back and retry. Device: Macbook M1 Pro OS: Ventura 13.5.1

Thanks. I called Apple Support and they arranged an appointment at the Genius Bar tomorrow. Hope it works!
