Certificate template name not shown in workgroup computer?

Hi. I was trying to enroll a certificate from our CA server for SCCM related tasks to a workgroup computer following this tutorial: https://www.petervanderwoude.nl/post/how-to-install-a-configmgr-client-on-a-workgroup-computer-when-the-configmgr-site-is-in-native-mode/. The import was successful and I can see the certificate shown in the mmc. However, the "certificate template" column fails to show the right template name. Instead, it shows that the template name as "1.3.6.......", which is the oid of the certificate. We want to have the template name shown for proper management. Anyone knows how can I have the template name shown in the console for workgroup computer instead of the oid shown? Thanks a lot.

First, this really has nothing to do with ConfigMgr. Next, to my knowledge, what you are asking for requires the system to have access to the AD forest where the templates are published which of course a workgroup system doesn't have. Why does this matter? The name itself has no functionality.

Hi, @CUCOOPE-7170
Thank you for posting in Microsoft Q&A forum.
For me, I followed below guidance to deploy the Client Certificate for workgroup Computers, and the clients show the right template name:
