- Hiding credential providers via group policy only work in windows 7 Professional and Ultimate and Windows 8 Professional and Ultimate. This is not work in Windows Home Basic and Premium version.
- Hiding credential providers via group policy also applies to UAC and RunAs authentication dialog boxes.
- Hiding the Generic Provider {25CBB996-92ED-457e-B28C-4774084BD562} and the NPProvider {3dd6bec0-8193-4ffe-ae25-e08e39ea4063} may result in a state, where authentication against websites or applications that require “Basic Authentication (HTTP 401 Challenge)” or “Digest Authentication (HTTP 401 Challenge)” may fail.
- Make sure you unhide the hidden credential providers again if you plan to remove GoSafe Login Credentials from your system. If you leave them hidden, following removal of GoSafe Login Credentials, the Windows Logon User Interface does not provide you with a credential provider to authenticate,and the Windows credential providers remain hidden.
