what would disable certificate export?I have several certificates in my user store. When I inspect them with
MMC snap-in, I can see that I have the private keys. When I try to export them, it doesn't let me export private keys. I am pretty sure that private keys are marked exportable when I first got these certificates. I wrote a c# program to export the certificates but when I run that, it gives me "key not valid for use in spefcified state" error. If it matters, OS is XP Professional. Do you know how I can export my certs? Thanks. If the keys were not set with the exportable flag, you cannot export them.
You would have to manually (programatically) decrypt the raw protected key blobs and re-construct the PKCS #12. -- Show quoteHide quoteDavid B.
