Touch ID missing on new iMac with M4 chip

My touch ID disappeared on my new iMac with the M4 chip. When I go to touch ID & password all I see is a button to change my password which do not want to do. I'm up to date with all updates. It was there this morning. Please help.

Have you tried restarting?


If that doesn't work, try booting into Safe Mode then restart normally. Sometimes that will fix anomalies.
