Yes, you can if you are the Primary User. Go to OtaniumSuite Control Center>SmartCard Options and de-select the option for Enable OtaniumSecure and then restart Windows. From this point on, OtaniumSecure will not require the SmartCard to log onto Windows or unlock the system. However, you will still be prompted for the SmartCard and SmartCard Password to open the Control Center and encrypt/decrypt files/folders. OtaniumKey and OtaniumEnabler are still functional as normal since they are separate components from OtaniumSecure.
