Yes, exactly!
My problem is because of not disconnecting card reader from windows.
Now, how should I connect the reader directly to the VM as any USB device?
Since, upon connecting the reader to system, shared reader icon appears on the
VM task bar!
Indeed, I have problem in VM setting to recognize the reader just as a USB
device.
Could you guide me about this?
Best Regards.

VMWare uses a trick to show the smart card reader in the VM without
disconnecting it from the host.
VMWare uses PC/SC on Windows to access the reader and shows it as a
fake CCID reader in the VM.
It is strange that you can get the ATR using pcsc_scan but not using
"opensc-tool -a".
It is also possible to connect your reader directly to the VM as any
other USB device. It will then not be available from Windows.
