If required, you can remove an existing Digipass Authentication for Windows Logon (DAWL) installation. You can also add and remove single product components. If files have been corrupted, deleted, or lost, you can repair the installation.

Before you begin

  • If you configured Windows Group Policy to block additional credential providers, you need to disable that Group Policy setting before uninstalling Digipass Authentication for Windows Logon. Otherwise, the specified credential providers remain excluded, which might leave your users unable to authenticate and log on to the client workstations. For more information, see Block available credential providers.

  • If you configured Windows Group Policy to protect the Digipass Authenticator for Windows Logon client installation from being removed, you need to log on with an administrative user account that is member of the allowed Active Directory user group (see Protect the client installation).
