issues with fortiauthenticator agent for windows

Hi all,

We are slowly moving to password-less based login for our users. We have already piloted YubiKeys as our primary method of authentication. As a failsafe we are now testing also FortiAuthenticatior agent for windows since we already have it on-premises. The login with PIN and Token works fine without any issues. What is happening is, that from time to time (once, twice, multiple times per day, or maybe not even happening) login screen starts behaving erratically not displaying login screen at all. In the event logs I can see, that it was caused by crashed LoginUI.exe and Fac_AgentCredentialProvider.dll and ucrtbase.dll.

 

Here is the log:

Has anyone else encountered this issue? And if so, how did you manage to solve it?

 

Thank you very much for your answers and help.

Kind regards

Hi Tibor

As agent 6.0 is new and not patched yet, I'd recommend to try agent 5.3.

Hope it helps.

Hi,

 

Can you confirm if FCT v7.0.13 is install on that PC.

Further share the snapshot of the reg from the PC facing the issue.

Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Fortinet\FAC_Agent_v1.0

Thanks, Salon

@AEK We are running FAC 6.6.2, FAC Agent 6.0 on Windows 10 22H2 latest version

@sjoshi FCT stands for what? Here is the registry screen shot:

The solution was to downgrade to 5.3 version. Works without issues.

Thank you all
