Hello,
The problem is with the Certificate on the Server not your client. It is
either a bad cert or the bad cert registry settings. First make sure you
are logged in as Administrator when trying to generate the cert request.
The following step have resolved similar issues in the past. PLEASE
remember to backup the key as the instructions say before proceeding.
1. Click Start, click Run, and then type "regedit" (without the
quotation marks) to open the standard Registry Editor.
2. Locate and click the following registry key:
HKEY_USERS\Default\Software\Microsoft\Cr
yptography\Providers\Type 001
3. Click the Providers key, click "Export Registry File" on the
Registry menu, and then type the location where you want to save this
file. Save this file to a location where you can easily access it at a
later time if necessary.
4. Press DELETE, and then click Yes to confirm that you want to delete
this registry key.
5. Restart the server. You are able to perform any of the tasks which were
formerly not possible because of the Cryptography APIs issue.
