Hey guys,

Need some help identifying if a smart reader is installed and what hardware name it has. i.e. Broadcom

I know the service name is scardsvr.exe so I have relevance to find if that exists on our computers.

q: (service name of it, exists image path of it) of services whose (service name of it as lowercase contains 
"scardsvr") A: SCardSvr, True   q: (service names of it, image paths of it) of services whose (service name of it as lowercase contains 
"scardsvr") A: SCardSvr, %25SystemRoot%25\System32\SCardSvr.exe

But I also need to know the hardware name of the smart card reader. Any advice would be appreciated.

thanks,

Baraq

I googled for “smartcard broadcom wmi” which lead me to

this page

.

From that I would guess that this WMI query might point you down the right path:

selects “* from Win32_PnPSignedDriver Where DeviceClass = ‘SMARTCARDREADER’” of wmi

On my machine I get results if I leave off the “where” clause… but I don’t have any smart card readers installed so I don’t know if that will actually work.
