Can you use Touch ID to bypass system password prompts?

Touch ID on my new MacBook Pro is pretty great, but I only seem to be able to use it to unlock the machine, not bypass/replace my system password once I'm in.

Is there a way to enable this?


Solution 1:

I have been able to use it for things like deleting an app from the Applications folder and occasionally installing software. It seems to be related to whether a developer has implemented it yet or not. In the past few months, I have had the option more frequently, but still only about 30-50% of the time.
