Resolve
Disable enhanced identity privacy or Windows trust for the resource partner in question
This error occurs only if the trust policy (trustpolicy.xml) file has been modified without the use of the Active Directory Federation Services snap-in. Enhanced identity privacy and Windows trust cannot coexist. Disable either enhanced identity privacy or Windows trust for the resource partner in question.
To perform these procedures, you must be a member of the local Administrators group, or you must have been delegated the appropriate authority.
To disable enhanced identity privacy on a resource partner:
- In Notepad or another text editor, open the trustpolicy.xml file, which, by default, is in %systemdrive%\windows\systemdata\adfs.
- Change the value of the UseEnhancedIdentityPrivacy element from false to true.
- Save and close Notepad.
To disable Windows trust for a resource partner:
- In Notepad or another text editor, open the trustpolicy.xml file, which by default is in %systemdrive%\windows\systemdata\adfs.
- Change the value of the IsWindowsRealm element from true to false.
- Save and close Notepad.
