As the name of the option gives away, this parameter is only meant to be
meaningful for the EAP type *EAP-TLS*. It does not / is not supposed to
have any effect on *EAP-TTLS*.

Well, never touching that option is extremely likely going to make
things work.

Now, since you have deleted it but it still does not work, maybe there
was a residue left, and maybe the installers still consider that residue
when they should not.

Quite frankly, you shouldn't have set this option in the first place.
But of course it should not do any harm if set, because it's about
another EAP type.

As a first workaround, you could delete the *profile* (not the entire
IdP) and create it anew, without setting the EAP-TLS option.

In a second step, we'll investigate where those side-effects come from.
Our developer for the Windows installers, Tomasz Wolniewicz, will get
back to you when he's back in his office.
