RDP on Win10: Password entry 2x required

[MGR1]

Hi,

we use duosecurity for RDP Sessons. On Windows 10 we have the issue (since about 1 month), that the user is required to enter the password 2 times.

Once in the Windows 10 mstsc.exe UI (screenshot: above) and then in the remotedesktop Session before the Duosecurity UI is shown (screenshot below):

Update to the current Version of DuoSecurity didn’t help.
It wasn’t the case about 1 month ago - it worked fine then with only 1x password input.

This could have something to do with:

• windows 10 Creators Update
• Windows Components/Remote Desktop Services/Remote Desktop Connection Client/Do not allow passwords to be saved Enabled (GPO)
• Control Panel/Personalization/Enable screen saver (GPO)
  Enable screen saver Enabled
  Force specific screen saver Enabled Screen saver executable name %windir%\system32\rundll32.exe user32.dll,LockWorkStation
  Password protect the screen saver Enabled
  Screen saver timeout Enabled 900

Please advice how to solve this annoying issue…

@PatrickKnight , was there a solution to this? I am facing the same issue

@DaniAvni The original issue from 2018 was around LiveID’s I believe.

If this issue in from version 4.0.7 of Windows Logon and later, you should try upgrading to v4.2.0 we just released today. There are a number of bug fixes including one for the scenario you’re asking about.
