Starting in version 2.99.0, the Windows installer includes a command-line tool that supports a list of instructions for the Windows authenticator. This tool also helps support MDM deployments. The tool is available after installing the authenticator at:
- User install location: C:\User\username\Local\Programs\BeyondIdentity\Tools
- System install location: C:\Program Files\BeyondIdentity\Tools.
Some instructions require Administrator access, so they will require the user to run the command prompt as an administrator.
The following table describes the available commands.

| ./BIConfigure --uninstall |
