Why do I see a notice about “LicMgrEP.exe”?
The “LicMgrEP.exe” is part of GuardedID® protection license manager. If you are installing or using GuardedID® for the first time, the notice may come from your internet security software. Allow LicMgrEP.exe to continue as long as it is properly signed from StrikeForce Technologies.
Why do fields change color when I click into them? What is CryptoColor®?
The CryptoColor® feature changes the background color of a text field to let you know that your keystrokes are being encrypted from the keyboard.
Why does the toolbar show a red “Off” when the cursor is not in a field that I can type into?
Inside the browser, GuardedID® is only active when the keyboard cursor is in a text input field. If you click inside a web page where there is no input field, GuardedID® will show RED “Off”. Once you move the cursor into a text entry field on a web page, GuardedID® will turn “On” and protect your typing.

Every time you type into one of these programs you will see numbers in sequence (e.g., “1234”) instead of what you are t…
Why does the toolbar show a red “Off” when typing in the fields at the top of the browser?

The toolbar is only active when the keyboard cursor is “inside” the data section. The top bar fields are protected by the GuardedID® “Desktop Protection” agent. The flashing “G” in…

If not, please [create a support ticket][1] to get help resolving this issue. ### ** ** [1]: http://strikeforcecpg.hap…
