InitializeGids.exe fails in Windows 10 #5

Closed adricasti closed 7 years ago

The InitializeGids.exe is working fine in Windows 7 but fails in Windows 10 Anniversary Update (at least when they are both running in a VMware Fusion virtual machine). Would you like to share the source code for that tool and I can have a look and send a pull request so it also works in Windows 10?

What is the exact error message ? Do not go too fast to the conclusion. You cannot reinitialize a card and there is also a cache from previously formatted card. The program just send APDU.

You have also the OpenSC part which initialize cards which is open source.

Thanks, in Windows 10 the resource manager stops working (it shows the SCardUIDlgSelectCard dialog where the reader appears empty even if a card is on it), but in Windows 7 it works fine. But good idea, I can test the OpenSC option to see if the problem is related to the virtualization rather than the tool.

You are right, I tried again with an HID Omnikey 3021 contact reader connected to the Windows 10 virtual machine and it's working fine, but other readers fail; in particular contactless readers.
