Essentially, I'm trying to streamline the Managed Home Screen so that user just types in their UPN/Email Address and then they're prompted for their Security Key along with pin.
However, I can't seem to find what the correct value of "Preferred authentication configuration" should be. Heck, I'm having a hard time finding something other than "qrpin".
The exe does essentially just run the ps1 file.
For the record, I am NOT using PSADT for this specific task. I'm just curious how they've pulled it off.
I need a particular PowerShell script to run every 3 minutes via task scheduler. But if even if I change the WindowStyle option, it will still flash the console window for less than a fraction of a second.
However, if I used PSADT in silent mode and just have the commands in the Invoke ps1 file, nothing gets flashed.
Any idea how they've done this?
I have this:
$TaskName = "Automation"
$Action = New-ScheduledTaskAction -Execute "powershell.exe" -Argument '-ExecutionPolicy Bypass C:\Automation\Automation.ps1'
$Trigger = New-ScheduledTaskTrigger -AtLogOn
$Principal = New-ScheduledTaskPrincipal -GroupID "Builtin\USERS" -RunLevel Highest
$Settings = New-ScheduledTaskSettingsSet -AllowStartIfOnBatteries -DontStopIfGoingOnBatteries -StartWhenAvailable
Register-ScheduledTask -TaskName $TaskName -Action $Action -Trigger $Trigger -Principal $Principal -Settings $Settings -Force
However, I need it to run again every 3 minutes after login. I tried doing
$Trigger = New-ScheduledTaskTrigger -AtLogOn -RepeatIndefinitely -RepetitionInterval (New-TimeSpan -Minutes 3)
but that didn't work. Anyone have any suggestions?

According to this page Google System Services Release Notes - Help , NFC Authentication is meant to work natively for CTAP2. Do a search for "nfc" or look at Security & Privacy under January 2026. It states authentication via NFC should work for CTAP2.
I have tested on multiple different Android devices, newer ones, older ones, Galaxy S25s and the latest Pixels. The NFC option does not appear for any of them. The phones are all up to date for both the "Google Play Services" app. The "Security update" is on 5 April 2026 and the "Google Play system update" is on 1 Marsh 2026.
I've created a post on Google's Issue tracker here: According to the release notes of Google Play Services v26.03, NFC Based authentication should work for CTAP2. It doesn't. [492805146] - Issue Tracker and added a comment to an older one here: Urgent Request to Address NFC Support in Android’s FIDO/CTAP Implementation [406833082] - Issue Tracker.
Even more annoying, there's multiple (Most likely AI Generated) articles and LinkedIn posts that talk about how the feature is available and I suspect none of them ever even tried it, just taking Google's word as gospel.
We can't use the Fido Bridge App by Token2 since our devices run in a shared mode setting from Intune which prevents adding an additional provider for authentication.
We can't use USB because our FIDO2 keys are cards and even then, the devices are Zebra Devices where the USB-C slot is covered and difficult to get to.
The fact that Google still haven't addressed this after four months is completely ridiculous. This is a feature iPhones have had since 2019! Does anyone know any other avenues I should be pursuing to get this on Google's radar? I know Fido2 on an Android phone in NFC form is a fairly niche thing hence why it might not have gotten much traction yet but I would have expected something after 4 months.
