Introduction
This article documents a way to recover virtual smart card devices which are simulated smart cards that uses the Trusted Platform Module (TPM) to perform cryptographic operations. It has been observed that created virtual smart card readers which operates virtual smart cards can be uninstalled by user, i.e. from the Device Manager by choosing Uninstall device, and the uninstalled devices will never being searched by Windows which reinstates from the uninstall. Because of this irreversible action, manual installation of virtual smart card readers is required in order to reinstate the use of virtual smart cards that have their card readers uninstalled.
Symptoms
A virtual smart card reader is uninstalled from Device Manager by choosing the Uninstall device operation. While actual smart card is not destroyed, the virtual smart card is no longer readable because the respective card reader device is missing. Using the Scan for hardware changes option cannot reinstall the smart card device.
To preserve the card, the system administrator does not run the "tpmvscmgr destroy" command against the virtual smart card that has had its reader uninstalled from Windows.
Solution
On a system that has a virtual smart card reader installed, backup the registry for a random installed reader device, or use the template below.<syntaxhighlight lang="registry" line="1"> Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
