Guys, I didn't think of this until now, but I pulled up the
documentation for the scdaemon and the gpg-connect-agent.  Juggled
some commands around in Command Prompt and well whadayaknow...
cd C:Program Files (x86)GnuPGbingpg-connect-agent.exe helplearn
--force
BAM!   Done, that command above "learn --force" pulled the "shadows"
of the private keys from the smartcard...I guess these "shadows" are
what tell Kleopatra to look at the smartcard for the secret
key...guesses there since I'm figured this out on the fly and reading
up on things as I run into problems.
So I guess as long as these "shadows" don't contain any parts of the
private keys, but are indeed only "shadows" that say to look at the
smartcard then I'm good now  :-)
Guess I'm really looking forward to GnuPG v2.3 when the smartcard
support is may be going to be better cuz ummmm this should've been
automatic and not needed me to go into the Command Prompt to tell the
already running agent process to learn a card when it's inserted into
the reader.  I'm not complaining but only saying that others won't
figure this out in the future...

Well, thank you guys
