FRP release 5.1.0.209 - Does it fix/remove the "Synchronizing user data" prompt?

[FA1]

Good Morning! 🙂

With FRP 5.1.0, this prompt started appearing each time a user unlocked their machine. Also see https://community.mcafee.com/t5/Encryption-PC-and-Mac/FRP-5-1-Dialog-quot-Synchronizing-user-data-qu....

Is this fixed in the current version? I do not see a reference in the release notes.

Thank you!

Ok, 

tested it. it is not fixed yet.

This is an actual show stopper for the deployment. our users will not tolerate Also, the dialog stays there quite a long time if the machine is not connected to the company network.

@FA1 Thank you for choosing McAfee Support Community

When User based keys are assigned and if authentication is based on OS authentication is chosen in the moment when user login to their machine FRP gets Synchronized based on OS Authentication to load Keys automatically.

If not then we have to choose other Authentication type like Password based authentication which asks user to enter user name and password to load keys manually.

This is happening as per design as the encryption keys will get loaded only after successful authentication with either of the authentication method is chosen at-least once whenever a machine is restarted so its an expected behavior. However in FRP Authentication policy you can configure enable "Require authentication using Active Directory credentials at first logon" to avoid continuous prompt even after first login.

Let me know if you have any further questions !!
