| | Can I disable the "Certificate Propagation" service? I bought a Smart Card reader. Its instruction manual directs the user to "disable the 'Certificate Propagation' service from Service.msc in order for the card reader to function properly under Windows 7." Should I do that? |

| | Is the smart card reader labeled as plug and play? If yes, see the first note in this TechNet bulletin: Certificate Propagation Service |

| | Well try the Smart Card Reader first. If it doesn't work with the Certificate Propagation enabled, then go ahead and disable it. |

| | After reading the Technet bulletin that marsmimar provides a link to, which points out that the scope of the "Ceritificate Propagation" service is only confined to the plugging-in of a Smart Card into a Smart Card Reader (not something system-wide), I tried, as SlasherIT suggests, disabling the service. And my card reader now works fine. Thank you, people. Last edited by drkh; 19 Jul 2011 at 11:07 PM.. |
