Your Password is needed to enable touch ID On my MacBook Pro 16" (macOS 12.5, MacBookPro18,1) I receive the message "Your password is required to enable touch ID" everytime. Not just after a restart, reboot, etc but everytime the screen is locked. How do I correct this issue to resume using touch ID?

MacBook Air not accepting password to add Touch ID My MacBook Air is saying ‘Your password is required to enable touch ID’. It is not accepting either my apple login password or computer password, both of which I messaged to myself when I set it up a week ago. Any advice please? [Re-Titled By Moderator]
