Okta Verify window behind GP login window fix

Hello All,

To fix the issue where Okta Verify appears behind the GlobalProtect window during initial authentication, open the Registry Editor by pressing Win + R, typing regedit, and pressing Enter. Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Palo Alto Networks\GlobalProtect\Settings. Right-click in the Settings pane and select New → String Value, then name the new key saml-browser-order. Double-click on this key and set its Value data to no. Close the Registry Editor, and restart the GlobalProtect client if necessary. This change ensures that Okta Verify will not open behind the GlobalProtect window, providing a clearer user authentication experience.

This works for 11.2.x and 6.3.3

Hope it helps!

Thank you for this 🙂

i have searching for "saml-browser-order" in the docs, but there is not any technical document about ALL registry or deployment. Is there any hints where i can find the complete list of registry-Settings?
