Applies To: Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2003 R2, Windows Server 2003 with SP1, Windows Server 2003 with SP2

To copy a certificate

  1. Open the Certificates console for the user, computer, or service you want to manage.

    Tip

    For instructions on creating a Microsoft Management Console (MMC) that allows you to manage the certificates of a user account, computer account, or service account, see the appropriate article from the following list

  1. Manage certificates for your user account

  2. Manage certificates for a computer

  3. Manage certificates for a service

  1. In the console tree, select the correct store that has the certificate you want to request. For example, under Certificates – Current User, expand Personal, click Certificates.

    Note

    For information on the different view options, see Certificates Console (https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=209851).

  2. In the details pane, click the certificate you are copying. (To select multiple certificates, hold down CTRL and click each certificate.)

  3. On the Action menu, click Copy.

  4. Click the logical certificate store where you want to copy the certificate.

  5. On the Action menu, click Paste.

Note

  • To perform this procedure, the view mode must be organized by Logical Certificate Stores. For instructions on changing to Logical Certificate Stores view mode, see Display certificate stores in Logical Store mode.

  • You can only copy a certificate within certificate stores in Certificates. For example, you cannot copy a certificate to a folder in Windows Explorer. See Related Topics for information about importing and exporting certificates.

  • Information about functional differences

    • Your server might function differently based on the version and edition of the operating system that is installed, your account permissions, and your menu settings. For more information, see Viewing Help on the Web.
