Is a storage location considered like an actor in use case diagram?

Question

I'm creating diagrams for software which check if there is a certificate in certificate stores (Windows), then import it. My question is can I consider certificate stores as a non-human actor in use case diagram?

Answer 1

An actor in a uml diagram represents a role that interacts with your application. So, if your certificate store interacts with your application then it can be considered an actor. If it doesn't interact then it is really just a node in a class diagram.
