**NOTE**: Some older servers may not have the **CredentialProviders.admx** GPO template installed. This template is included with newer versions of Windows Server and Windows 10 (version 20H1 and later). If the GPO is missing from your server, follow **Option Two** below.

### Option Two: Add a Registry Key

* To enable security key sign-in using a registry key, deploy the following registry key to all your Windows clients using your preferred deployment tool.

```
REG ADD "HKLM\SOFTWARE\policies\Microsoft\FIDO" /v EnableFIDODeviceLogon /t REG_DWORD /d 1 /f
```

### Create a Device configuration profile

### Option 1: Settings Catalog

* Sign in to the Microsoft Intune admin center
* Browse to **Devices > Windows > Configuration profiles > Create new policy**.
