Description
This policy setting controls whether the NFC tap location indicator is displayed on the logon screen.
The NFC tap location indicator is a visual overlay that shows users where to tap their NFC security key or badge on the device. It appears when an NFC-capable credential provider is selected and the device has a configured NFC antenna location on the device screen or bezel.
If you enable or don't configure this policy setting, the NFC tap location indicator is shown when applicable.
If you disable this policy setting, the NFC tap location indicator is never shown, even if the device has a configured NFC antenna location.
