Logging into KPAW troubleshooting

2 minute to read

Do not use a saved desktop shortcut. Instead, delete it and always access Keypoint by downloading a fresh link from login.keypointanywhere.com.

To make access easier in the future, I recommend saving the site as a Chrome bookmark:

1. Go to login.keypointanywhere.com.

2. Click the (star) in the address bar.

3. In the pop-up, choose Bookmarks Bar and click Done.

4. You will now have a quick link on your Bookmarks Bar.

Additional Troubleshooting Steps

If you are still experiencing issues logging in, please try the following:

1. Delete the RDP Cache Folder

   • Navigate to: C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Terminal Server Client
   • Replace username with your Windows username.
   • Note: the AppData folder may be hidden. In the address bar, type appdata\local and press Enter, then delete the Cache folder.

2. Flush DNS

   • Open a Command Prompt (type cmd in the Windows search bar).
   • Type: ipconfig /flushdns and press Enter.

3. Try a Different Browser

   • If available, switch to another browser.

4. Use an Incognito or InPrivate Window

   • In your browser, click the three-dot menu in the top-right corner.
   • Select New Incognito Window (Chrome) or New InPrivate Window (Edge).

5. Clear Browser Cache

   • In your browser, click the three-dot menu in the top-right corner.
   • Select Delete browsing data.
   • Set Time Range to All Time.
   • Check: Browsing history, Cookies and other site data, and Cached images and files.
   • Uncheck anything you do not want removed.
   • Click Clear Now.

6. Handling RDP File Errors

   • If you see an error, click OK.
   • Then, go to your Downloads folder and open the most recent .rdp file.

Final Notes

Understand Connection Status

• After logging in, the window may show Securing.
  • If you see this, the connection is in progress; it can take up to 3 minutes but generally completes within 30–45 seconds.
• If you see an error or it gets stuck:
  • Sign Out from the site completely and try logging in again.

The key is to remain persistent—sometimes multiple attempts are necessary to log in successfully.
