How to identify is a certificate is in a smart card?
-
Hi All, How can we determine if a user-certificate is contained in a smartcard or if it is installed in the system itself? I wasn't able to find a .NET class that does this? Thanks in advance...

There is no inbuilt class for smart card in .net , you have to use winscard.dll wrapper . go through the below link in CP A Smart Card Framework for .NET[^]

As much as i know even if a certificate comes in a card then also it has to be installed in your personal store. While reading the cetificate you need to insert the smart token in order to execute
ComputeSignature. And if you set the silent parameter tofalsewhile usingComputeSignatureit will automatically reads the card and asks for password for the certificate (if any).
