credential provider

About this tag
The credential provider framework in Windows handles user authentication and logon scenarios, including fast user switching and custom credential providers. A known issue in Windows 10 Insider builds fixed NPLogonNotify API notifications from the credential provider framework. Developers working with credential providers on Windows 7 may encounter LogonUI problems when managing credential lists and calling OnConnectStatusChanged in a loop. The tag covers troubleshooting, development, and updates related to credential providers across Windows versions.
