SCARD_E_NO_ACCESS
SCARD_E_NO_ACCESS The selected smart-card file exists but the caller is not authorized to access it. This differs from a missing file and generally reflects card security rules, PIN verification state, or issuer-defined access conditions.
What to verify
- Check the file or application access rule in the card profile and the required authenticated role.
- Verify any required PIN or secure-messaging state before accessing the object.
- Do not respond by creating a new file or changing filesystem paths; the object may be intentionally protected.
