When I generate a certificate using MakeCert.exe, I want to change the key size

  • 0

When I generate a certificate using MakeCert.exe, I want to change the key size from 1024 to 2048.

Is this possible? Or do I need to setup a certificate authority (CA)?

    Here the following syntax is used:

    makecert -pe -ss MY -$ individual -n 'CN=your name here' -len 2048 -r 

    Sorry I cannot test it, since I don’t have Makecert.
