  1. How can I retrieve a deleted certificate from a CAC card?


    I just recently received a new CAC, and I tried to log in on it. It wouldn't let me because it was trying to log into the old one. I went into my certificates in internet options and deleted all the certificates. Now the CAC won't even appear on the websites I use to log in. I used the reader on a different computer and it works fine, but how do I fix this issue on this computer?

    :)

    Cannot delete certificate

    Because it's a personal computer I'm not using a CAC. But the way CACs work is by authorising you against the central domain, which is effectively what I'm doing anyway (because I'm not on a domain-managed system).

    I've elevated to Admin but the certificate disappears: this is an intended behaviour. It's clearing the 'R' attribute that I need help with.

    I may try SuperUser unless anybody has any suggestions?

    Smart Card not reading CAC

    Hi,

    After a microsoft update a few months ago my smart card reader no longer recognize my CAC. When I would try to log onto military sites, it would say no certificates present. On activclient (middleware), it would say no card reader detected. I am using a
    SCR331 and a Stanley global as card readers. However, I know my CAC and the readers are good because both work with no issues on my laptop and at work. I also know my desktop (which is the issue) use to work fine until I did the update. When I rolled back
    the update, the issue was still present.

    I have read and used all the steps and tips I could find on Military CAC to no avail. Under devices, I can see both smart card readers and both have newest drivers. Under services, certificates and smart card readers are running and automatic.

    I have seen this very issue posted many times on the help forms and the few actual suggestions I have tired. Helping to find a solution would not only help me but many others with this same issue.

    Please help! Thank you.

    CAC Card Certificates not showing up on Windows 11 Home edition.

    CAC Card Certificates not showing up on Windows 11 Home edition. Long Story short I just purchased a Surface Pro 9 to use as a work computer. (Found a good deal). I am in the military and need a CAC Card Reader to access different websites for work. I have downloaded the drivers and updated the Firmware for my CAC Card Reader but not been able to log on to the websites I need to. Every time I try, I get the no Certificates found error. When I look at my certificates in the internet setting the certificates are present like they should be. I have never had this issue Windows but now cannot seem to get things to work. Has anyone else experienced this? If so, how did you fix the situation to get your CAC Card to work?
