Hello - I've imported a certificate into my "Trusted Root Certification Authority Store." The certificate icon has a tiny key image in the upper left-hand corner so the certificate appears to be associated with a private key. However, when I try to add
a reference to the WCF service that uses this certificate the system returns the following error message:
"It is likely that certificate 'CN=RootCATest' may not have a private key that is capable of key exchange or the process may not have access rights for the private key."
Any idea what the problem might be? Based on googling it appears I should be able to right click the cert in my MMC and select "All Tasks" > "Manage Private Keys". However, this menu option is not available for my certificate for some reason. My understanding
was that if the cert is in the proper store and it has the key image in the top left corner then everything should be go but this does not appear to be the case....
