My Touch ID is completely gone from my settings after the most recent update, how do I get it back I had touch ID on my Mac desktop computer up until the most recent update. Now I go into settings and the fingerprint icon only shows "login ID has been set for this computer", all the touch ID information is gone. How do I get it back?

Thank you. To reinstall the fingerprint icon I needed to turn off/on the keyboard.
