# Configure Windows clients protected by another Credential Provider

If another credential provider (such as, McAfee or Symantec) overwrites Windows login, you must add a new Windows registry key to enable Smart Login with Identity as a Service.

note

For Windows passwordless integration, if you are using Microsoft Intune you must permit Bluetooth advertising and Bluetooth proximal connections for Windows workstations. For more information, see <https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/mem/intune/configuration/device-restrictions-windows-10>.

## Permit Bluetooth advertising and proximal connections

If using Microsoft Intune, enable the required connections, as follows:

1. Go to the applicable **Endpoint Manager** **Intune Portal:**
   - <https://endpoint.microsoft.com> (for Commercial customers)
   - <https://endpoint.microsoft.us> (for Government customers)
2. In the navigation pane, click **Endpoint security**.
3. Under **Manage**, click **Attach Surface Direction**.
4. Select the **Device Control** policy that applies to the device.
5. Click **Properties**.
6. Next to **Configuration Settings**, click **Edit**.
7. Ensure that the required services are not blocked.

## Add a new registry setting to allow Smart Login

1. Add a new **String Value** Windows registry key with the key name EntrustSmartLoginProvider under `HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft/Windows\CurrentVersion\Authentication\LogonUI`.
2. Modify the value to the **GUID** of your credential provider. You can find this value under LastLoggedOnProvider when a user logs in to Windows.
