All certificates in the certificate store can be exported individually as a file and subsequently used for Windows or other applications. An exported certificate can also be re-imported into.
To export a certificate, first select the desired certificate in the table and then
click the button
in the toolbar for the certificate store.
If you wish to export a certificate without a private key, a dialog that lets you save the file opens immediately.
If the certificate to be exported has a private key, there are some options.
First, you will be asked if the existing private key should be exported as well. If you answer "no", the certificate will be saved immediately, just like a certificate without a key.
If you answer "yes", then you must enter the correct password afterwards. The correct password is the password used when importing or generating the certificate. If the password is correct, the certificate can be saved as a PFX-file. This file is password protected and contains the certificate and the private key.
If the password is incorrect, the certificate will not be exported.
Under certain circumstances, a certificate with a private key may be stored, however the key is not password protected. In this case, the certificate can only be exported without a private key. You will then be notified accordingly.
