by Aashish Koirala

Build Status

PFX Tool is a command line tool that does stuff with and around PFX certificates.

Installation

PFX Tool is a .NET Core Global Tool that is built to run against the .NET Core 2.2 runtime. To install:

dotnet tool install pfxtool -g

Usage

The basic usage is as follows:

pfxtool <command> <options>

The following commands are currently supported:

  • import: Import certificates and keys from a PFX file to a certificate store.
  • export: Export certificates and keys from a certificate store to a PFX file.
  • remove: Remove an existing certificate and keys from a certificate store.
  • list: List all certificates in a certificate store or in a PFX file.
  • show: Show details of a certificate in a certificate store or in a PFX file.

The following commands are not currently supported but are planned:

  • create: Create a PFX out of given certificate and key files (a-la openssl).
  • explode: Explode a PFX into its constituent certificate and key files.

For details, run pfxtool without any options to get usage instructions.
