Question
I want to put my certificate into specific store, but I don't now the name of this store as the parameter for the -ss option of makecert.exe. Where I can find all the possible parameters for each option of this tool? Neither MSDN nor -? (help option for the tool) can help.
For example, what is the -ss equivalent for the "Trusted Root Certification Authorities"? And another certificate stores also?
Solution
You can find a list of store names at http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.security.cryptography.x509certificates.storename.aspx. Use the value in the "Member Name" column under the "Members heading". Note that not all certificate stores may be available in all operating systems.

drive in PowerShell. Just cd cert:
