"Provider could not perform the action since the context was acquired as silent" error while using EFS from Smart Card

Hi All,

I have a x.509 user certificate with EFS capability. EFS works fine when the certificate is stored in the personal store of the user which means that there is no issue with the certificate. I installed the minidriver of the smart card now it is listed in device manager. But when i try to encrypt a file it asks for the PIN and after the correct input PIN it displays the following error.

"Provider could not perform the action since the context was acquired as silent".

Please guide me on this issue.

Regards

Scott Thomas
