Use the thumbprint to identify which certificate to remove. The thumbprint is unique to each certificate. The user performing the removal must have read and write permission on the store where the certificate is located. If the certificate isn't in the store, nothing happens, not even an error. To uninstall a certificate from a remote computer, use the `Session`parameter, which was added in Carbon 2.1.0. You can create a new session with the `New-PSSession` cmdlet. You can uninstall a certificate using just its thumbprint (this functionality is new in Carbon 2.5.0). `Uninstall-CCertificate` will search through all certificate locations and stores and uninstall all certificates that have the thumbprint. When you enumerate all certificates over a remoting session, you get a terminating `The system cannot open the device or file specified` error, so you can't delete a certificate with just a thumbprint over remoting. .EXAMPLE Uninstall-CCertificate -Thumbprint 570895470234023dsaaefdbcgbefa Demonstrates how to delete a certificate from all stores it is installed in. `Uninstall-CCertificate` searches every certificate stores and deletes all certificates with the given thumbprint. This functionality was added in Carbon 2.5.0. .EXAMPLE '570895470234023dsaaefdbcgbefa' | Uninstall-CCertificate Demonstrates that you can pipe a thumbprint to `Uninstall-CCertificate`. The certificate is uninstall from all stores it is in. This functionality was added in Carbon 2.5.0. .EXAMPLE Get-Item -Path 'cert:\LocalMachine\My\570895470234023dsaaefdbcgbefa' | Uninstall-CCertificate Demonstrates that you can pipe a certificate `Uninstall-CCertificate`. The certificate is uninstalled from all stores it is in. This functionality was added in Carbon 2.5.0. .EXAMPLE > Uninstall-CCertificate -Thumbprint 570895470234023dsaaefdbcgbefa -StoreLocation CurrentUser -StoreName My Removes the 570895470234023dsaaefdbcgbefa certificate from the current user's Personal certificate store. .EXAMPLE > $cert = Get-CCertificate -FriendlyName 'Carbon Testing Certificate' -StoreLocation LocalMachine -StoreName Root > Uninstall-CCertificate -Certificate $cert -StoreLocation LocalMachine -StoreName Root Removes the certificate with friendly name 'Carbon Testing Certificate' from the local machine's Trusted Root Certification Authorities store. .EXAMPLE Uninstall-CCertificate -Thumbprint 570895470234023dsaaefdbcgbefa -StoreLocation LocalMachine -StoreName 'SharePoint' Demonstrates how to uninstall a certificate from a custom, non-standard store. .EXAMPLE > Uninstall-CCertificate -Thumbprint 570895470234023dsaaefdbcgbefa -StoreLocation CurrentUser -StoreName My -Session (New-PSSession -ComputerName remote1,remote2) Demonstrates how to uninstall a certificate from a remote computer. #> [CmdletBinding(SupportsShouldProcess=$true,DefaultParameterSetName='ByThumbprint')] param( [Parameter(Mandatory=$true,ParameterSetName='ByThumbprint',ValueFromPipelineByPropertyName=$true,ValueFromPipeline=$true)] [Parameter(Mandatory=$true,ParameterSetName='ByThumbprintAndStoreName')] [Parameter(Mandatory=$true,ParameterSetName='ByThumbprintAndCustomStoreName')] [string] # The thumbprint of the certificate to remove. # # If you want to uninstall the certificate from all stores it is installed in, you can pipe the thumbprint to this parameter or you can pipe a certificate object.
