Question

I have a certificate generated via MakeCert. I want to use this certificate for WCF message security using PeerTrust. How can I programmatically install the certificate into the ‘trusted people’ local machine certificate store using c# or .NET?

I have a CER file, but can also create a PFX.

Answer 1

I believe that this is correct:

using (X509Store store = new X509Store(StoreName.TrustedPeople, StoreLocation.LocalMachine))  {    store.Open(OpenFlags.ReadWrite);    store.Add(cert); //where cert is an X509Certificate object }
