hardware settings according to the way you work
with the computer and the peripherals you use.
TOSHIBA
Accessibility
The TOSHIBA Accessibility utility provides
support to movement impaired users when they
need to use the TOSHIBA Hot-key functions. In
use, the utility allows you to make the FN key
"sticky", that is you can press it once, release it,
and they press one of the "Function" keys in
order to access its specific function. When set, the
FN key will remain active until another key is
pressed.
TOSHIBA Face
Recognition
TOSHIBA Face Recognition uses a face
verification library to verify the face data of users
when they log in to Windows. If the verification is
successful, the user will be logged into Windows
automatically. The user can thus avoid having to
enter a password or the like, which makes the
login process easier.
