Question:

I know that Windows has a GUI interface to manage digital certificates. I have seen it on another computer but I cannot find a shortcut on my system at home, even though I have admin privileges. How can I start the Certificate Manager on Windows XP?

Answer:

The certificate manager is implemented as a Management Console Snap-in Control (MSC) file. The application can be started as certmgr.msc

Below is a list of other management console Snap-in controls. They are all in \Windows\System32

You can start them from the start menu, by clicking on 'run' and then entering the desired command, e.g. certmgr.msc.

C:\WINDOWS\system32>dir *.msc /b
certmgr.msc
ciadv.msc
compmgmt.msc
devmgmt.msc
dfrg.msc
diskmgmt.msc
eventvwr.msc
fsmgmt.msc
gpedit.msc
lusrmgr.msc
ntmsmgr.msc
ntmsoprq.msc
perfmon.msc
rsop.msc
secpol.msc
services.msc
wmimgmt.msc

After a few weeks of non use of my PC a message appears when I activate my yahoo
e- mail, saying 'the security certificat for this website (yahoo. com, I assume) with a recommendation to renew the 'certificate#'or close it all together! Plse advise what could be the reason for this and what can I do to reactivate my programme.
