Turning on and off FIPS Compliance Checking
First Method

1.Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Local Security Policy
2.Enable the setting for "System cryptography: Use FIPS compliant algorithms for encryption, hashing, and signing"

OR

Edit the Windows registry by setting the following value to 0 (disable) or 1 (enable)

HKLMSystemCurrentControlSetControlLsaFIPSAlgorithmPolicy

Alternatively you can copy the following lines into a registry script file (.reg) and run it.

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESYSTEMCurrentControlSetControlLsa]
"fipsalgorithmpolicy"=dword:00000001

NOTE: "Using Registry Editor incorrectly can cause serious, system-wide problems that may require you to re-install Windows to correct them. Microsoft cannot guarantee that any problems resulting from the use of Registry Editor can be solved. Use this tool at your own risk."
