Answer 1

hello,

Please configure the group policy:

1. Locate to Computer Configuration -> Administrative Templates -> System -> Logon.
2. In the right pane of the above-shown window, look for the policy setting named Assign a default credential provider.
3. Set the its value as {8FD7E19C-3BF7-489B-A72C-846AB3678C96} (smartcard credential provider).

Note: You could search the registry entry below to know the credential providers and their GUIDs.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Authentication\Credential Providers

And see if it helps,

Thank you
