Better Certificate Management in Powershell via CertificateHelper

If you’ve read my previous post here , you know powershell can do some basic certificate management via the certificate provider. However, the certificate provider has some limitations. The certificate provider can’t create,delete,copy or import/export certificates. This annoyed me so I’m creating a powershell module called CertificateHelper that will provide these missing features. So far the module implements: New-Certificate Remove-Certificate  CertHelper can be found on codeplex . You install it like this: (You must have hg installed) PS C:\>cd $home\Documents\WindowsPowerShell\Modules PS C:\Users\igord\Documents\WindowsPowerShell\Modules> hg clone https://hg01.codeplex.com/certificatehelper destination directory: certificatehelper requesting all changes adding changesets adding manifests adding file changes added 5 changesets with 8 changes to 4 files updating to branch default 4 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved
