Modified on Mon, 23 Sep at 8:32 AM

Yes, you can generate Rublon Passcodes (Time-Based One-Time Passwords or TOTP) using desktop applications. This is especially useful for users who prefer or require a desktop environment for their authentication needs.


Recommended Desktop TOTP Applications

1. WinAuth: WinAuth is a versatile TOTP generator for Windows. It supports multiple multi-factor authentication providers, including Rublon, and provides an easy-to-use interface for managing one-time passwords.

2. OTPClient: OTPClient is an open-source TOTP application for Linux. It offers a simple and secure way to manage your TOTP credentials, including those from Rublon.


Setting Up the Passcode Authentication Method (TOTP) With a Desktop Application

To generate Rublon Passcodes using a desktop TOTP application like WinAuth and OTPClient, follow these steps:

1. Install the Desktop Application: Download and install the desktop TOTP app.

2. Enroll the desktop app with Rublon: You can do it via Rublon’s third-party authenticator enrollment process. For step-by-step instructions including screenshots, refer to How to enroll a third-party authenticator app?

3. Verify the TOTP: After completing the enrollment, the desktop application will generate passcodes. Verify the setup by entering a generated Passcode to confirm everything works correctly.


By following these steps, you can successfully use desktop applications like WinAuth and OTPClient to generate Rublon Passcodes, providing an alternative to mobile-based TOTP generators like Rublon Authenticator, Google Authenticator, and Microsoft Authenticator.
