This is my first question in this site.

I wann to create a .cer file from scratch. I know I can use makecert. But I want to create it from my C#. I'm already doing it using Process.Start to start makecert. is there anyother way to do that? I'm using .NET 4.5 in my C# code.

With thanks

Use bouncy castle library, that is an open source project originally written in Java and ported to C#.
