Answer 1

The Fingerprint Sensor you are using supports a Microsoft Developed Windows Biometric Framework that can enable you to use this device to create Client Applications to save and process data feed from the device.

You can read more about the framework at the following links

Answer 2

There is a WBF (Windows Biometric Framework) driver for ES603 from 6/2/2015. You can download the correct driver from the provided link below. http://www.catalog.update.microsoft.com/search.aspx?q=egistec I tested the driver and it works well with WBF. There are some minor problems with the provided EGISFP.inf file and driver. The driver is not signed and you should disable the driver signing for your operating system also you should remove some lines from EGISFP.inf file provided with the driver. I do not know the purpose of these lines but without removing them it was not possible to install the driver. You can edit the EGISFP.inf file provided with the driver with a notepad or some other text editor.

Removed lines from EGISFP.inf:

Answer 3

No that device is not supported by WBF. I have tried it already, no go.
