Virtual Smart Card backed by vTPM

Hello,

I'm trying to create a virtual smartcard on Windows 11 following this article: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/wi...rted#step-2-create-the-tpm-virtual-smart-card but I'm getting an error that the file cannot be created:

Code:

Using default PIN: 12345678
Creating TPM Smart Card...
Initializing the Virtual Smart Card component...
Creating the Virtual Smart Card component...
Initializing the Virtual Smart Card Simulator...

Waiting for TPM Smart Card Device...
Failed to generate the filesystem on the TPM Smart Card.
        (0x80070002) The system cannot find the file specified.

Already tried taking ownership / clearing the TPM but it had no effect. Has anyone had success creating such a thing in a Windows guest system? Are there some additional settings that should be done?

 

I solved my problem - it was caused by the /generate option. Issuing the creation command w/o it works fine!
