I then run the Windows Azure PowerShell under administrator credentials

However I get the following error

Get-AzurePublishSettingsFile : Class not registered

    You need the private key of (or on) the certificate in order for this to work correctly. I found this out after a lot of trail and error.

    But in short if your certificate manager does not have a little key icon over the certificate (the second certificate in the screen shot), it means you don’t have a private key, and that means that Powershell will not be able to connect to Azure.

    I noted down the things that I learned over here:
