Windows can already have some virtual smartcard readers installed, like the one provided for Windows Hello. To ensure your YubiKey is the correct one used by scdaemon, you should add it to its configuration. You will need your device's full name. To find out what is your device's full name, plug your YubiKey and open PowerShell to run the following command:
```` powershell
``` powershell
PS C:\WINDOWS\system32> Get-PnpDevice -Class SoftwareDevice | Where-Object {$_.FriendlyName -like "*YubiKey*"} | Select-Object -ExpandProperty FriendlyName

**Note** Agent forwarding may be chained through multiple hosts - just follow the same [protocol](#remote-host-configuration) to configure each host. You may also read this part on [chained ssh agent forwarding](#chained-ssh-agent-forwarding).
## macOS
To use gui applications on macOS, [a little bit more setup is needed](https://jms1.net/yubikey/make-ssh-use-gpg-agent.md).
Create `$HOME/Library/LaunchAgents/gnupg.gpg-agent.plist` with the following contents:
```
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN"
"http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">

You will need to either reboot, or log out and log back in, in order to activate these changes.
# Remote Machines (GPG Agent Forwarding)
This section is different from ssh-agent forwarding in [SSH](#ssh) as gpg-agent forwarding has a broader usage, not only limited to ssh.
