Windows Hello on a desktop PC

[popuptoaster]

I would like to get Windows Hello working on my desktop PC but I am struggling to find answers, thought you guys on here were probably the best people to ask!!

I have a reasonably modern system that should be compatible with Windows Hello, it's a 6700k Z170x box running W10 Home (build 16299.309)  and a Logitech Brio webcam which is compatible according to Logitech although they can provide no advice.

The windows hello section of the sign in options just tells me that Windows hello isn't available on this device and that's it as far as it's concerned!

I did get on to Microsoft technical support but the advisor wanted me to roll back to an early version of W10 and then disable updates which is not a method I am interested in, he seemed to think it has been disabled in a patch at some point.

I'm not so sure it can have been disabled or there would be a lot of laptop owners complaining so, looking for suggestions? Can i foll my OS into thinking it's on a laptop and get Hello working that way? Is there a way to enable it that I don't know about? I've had no luck with Google so far so maybe one of you W10 geniuses knows how to get around whatever is disabling it.

Cheers for any help.

As far as I know Windows Hello on a desktop is just not a thing

And you're sure you have all the proper drivers installed?

You can buy cameras and fingerprint scanners to make it work on computers without those items built in so I see no reason its shouldn't work on any W10 PC.

The follow up question to that then, is how do I make W10 think that it's on a laptop?

Logitech don't provide drivers for the Brio they say let W10 download and install drivers for the camera.

Any more ideas?
