This sample shows how you can use UserCertificateStore class to add and delete a certificate in the user's User Personal certificate store (also known as the MY store). The UserCertificateStore parallels the CertificateStore class which represents the App's certificate store.
This sample demonstrates the following:
- Enumerating all certificates and identifying the app certificates and user certificates.
- Moving a certificate from the app certificate store to the user certificate store by adding it to the user certificate store and deleting it from the app certificate store.
- Moving a certificate from the user certificate store to the app certificate store by adding it to the app certificate store and deleting it from the user certificate store.
In order to use the UserCertificateStore class, the app must have the sharedUserCertificate capability.
