Windows Authentication is not working in Chrome

In my MVC5 application Windows Authentication is not working. When the application is opened in IE it is prompting for credentials each and every time (after clearing temp data, cache, cookies) when the application is accessed.

In IIS, below configurations are done,

  1. Windows Authentication Enabled
  2. Anonymous Authentication Disabled
  3. Under Authentication -> Windows Authentication -> NTLM alone enabled.

In Web.config

<location path="Home">
<system.web>
  <authorization>
    <deny users="*" />
    <allow users="?" />
  </authorization>
</system.web>


<authentication mode="Windows">
</authentication>

Now the actual issue is, Chrome not at all asking for credentials when the application is accessed

Solution

  • After some analysis, I found there are some chrome.exe running in background. After killing the task Windows Authentication works in Chrome.
