How To Set Up ANY CAC Reader For Windows/Google Chrome | Zoweetek CAC Reader 12026-3

Hello friends! This is a quick tutorial to set up your personal CAC reader from home! Setting up a CAC reader works the same across all branches: Army, Navy, Marines, Air Force, Coast Guard. I personally needed my CAC reader to access my AF Portal/AFVEC from home on my Surface Book (64-bit Windows) using Google Chrome.
Depending on your base, you do not have to spend money on a CAC reader, just talk to your supervisor and ask for one :) Drop a comment to let me know if this helps you!

Omg it worked after struggling for the past day thank you so much!

[@inkos91]

You’re amazing! Thanks sooo much!

[@isaac11037]

THANK YOU for starting me down the right path i was sooo over it omg

[@travisroach8847]

It’s still not working, I followed everything to a tee with my cac reader, but no certificates pop up

[@outis_406]

I installed everything with Root but none of my information shows up when I go under personal tab, and can't continue. please help.

[@tommytwopants4335]

WORKED ON THE FIRST TRY!!!!

[@WingmanResources]

Heck YES! THAT'S what I like to hear!!! So glad this could help you!

[@thegrandlevel313]

I worry that all these Chinese electronics with proprietary Foreign software might be a National Security risk.

[@mrxrp3070]

Exactly!!!! This is absolutely crazy!!! Do you know how much information is in your CaC chip? The nation-state could use this peripheral to infiltrate our systems and exfiltrate data. This product should be pulled from Amazon if it wasn't cleared by the DoD.

[@hazardltg]

Lol stop it.. are you harboring classified information? If not then you'll be fine

[@jpas61904]

Thank You for the support. Really helped me out

[@MakeInItClean]

hell yes thank you!

[@WingmanResources]

I'm glad this helped! 😁

[@wilsonmcwatters5890]

I did this step, but only one certificate is showing up, got any recommendations??

[@DonovanPerez]

This isn’t working for me I did all of the steps but there are no certificates in the task bar thing.

[@WingmanResources]

Shoot me a message on instagram @birdiesbootcamp and we can troubleshoot :)

[@damienjohnson4784]

@@WingmanResources I'm having the same problem. I completed all the steps, yet no certificates.

[@ShadowWizard]

some i think some card reader are like most PC mousses u just plug it in and it automatically downloads and instill drivers, i think its like this with all tech

[@macbrebonicks8668]

But how do you know which certs to select?

[@ryanjeffery7236]

Looks like the install root link is not working any longer. :(

[@michelleleanos1993]

hi got to the step where i need to click "autorun" however it tells me to choose an application to open it. What application would i need?

[@WingmanResources]

Message me on Instagram @BirdiesBootcamp :)

[@Clickclackshred]

The Certs show up but say windows doesn’t have enough info to verify, how can I fix this ?

[@kamidyer6718]

what's the link for the second website?

[@anothertodd]

Thanks! This was a big help.

[@meep881]

Ugh I did it all and nothing was in my certificate thing

[@johnhernandez7666]

Thanks

[@oliviaharris277]

Bless you. seriously

[@rubenruiz2703]

you mentioned configuring your browser, how do you do that?

[@anthonypicciano3803]

Mine keeps asking me for a “pin”

[@bgskr9633]

You should have a CAC pin

[@hazardltg]

Um.. that means it works

[@anthonypicciano3803]

@@hazardltg yeah the office I went to for my cac made me a pin and didn’t tell me what it was. It’s why I was confused. I got it sorted

[@684avatar]

For some damn reason my computer decided to not let me into any government sites and make my certificates useless.

[@Evildragonfirez]

Does it work on Ubuntu/Pop OS 20.04???

[@ahmedsherif2788]

How to write on the card ?

[@marioangelo7248]

Hello does this work for afvec?

[@WingmanResources]

It sure does! 😊

[@mattb5056]

Can you try this on an Android phone?

[@ryant3295]

With this CAC reader, can you use it to log into your mypay account?

[@WingmanResources]

Yes you can! :)

[@ryant3295]

@@WingmanResources Awesome. I bought a CAC reader from Amazon and had to return it today because it wouldn't work. I will try what you did here, for my Chromebook. I'll let you know how it turns out.
