Ifthere is no smart card present, the driver library calls the reader driver's smart card tracking callback function, and the reader driver starts looking for the smart card. After initiating smart card tracking, the driver library marks the request as having a status of STATUS_PENDING. The driver library completes the request.

I can enumerate the certificates present on the inserted smart card but how can one decide that the certificates present in the windows certificate store are related to smart card even when there is no smart card inserted?

If the property returns true then the key is stored on a smart card and most likely but not necesaary will propmpt a PIN when you try to access the key. This will work if the key is stored in the legacy Cryptographic Service Provider CSP. Modern cards support modern provider types called Key Storage Provider KSP which is poorly supported in .NET. This means that if the key is stored in the hardware KSP, then HasPrivateKey property of the X509Certificate2 object will return True and PrivateKey will be null. In this case, you will have to do some extra work by calling native CryptoAPI functions in the NCrypt family. Though, starting with .NET there are several extension methods in X509Certificate2 class which can be used to retrieve provider information X509Certificate2 Extension Methods. answered Apr 4, 2016 at 1918 gold badges40 silver badges69 bronze badges
