Gets the location of the X.509 certificate store.

public:
 property System::Security::Cryptography::X509Certificates::StoreLocation Location { System::Security::Cryptography::X509Certificates::StoreLocation get(); };

public System.Security.Cryptography.X509Certificates.StoreLocation Location { get; }

member this.Location : System.Security.Cryptography.X509Certificates.StoreLocation

Public ReadOnly Property Location As StoreLocation

Property Value

StoreLocation

The location of the certificate store.

Examples

This section contains two examples. The first example demonstrates how you can open standard X.509 stores and list the number of certificates in each.

The second example demonstrates how you can add and remove single certificates and ranges of certificates.

Example 1

This example tries to open each standard store in each standard location on the current computer. It prints a summary that shows whether each store exists and, if so, the number of certificates it contains.

The example creates an X509Store object for each combination of standard name and standard location. It calls the Open method with the OpenFlags.OpenExistingOnly flag, which opens the physical store only if it already exists. If the physical store exists, the example uses the Name, Location, and Certificates properties to display the number of certificates in the store.

using System;
using System.Security.Cryptography;
using System.Security.Cryptography.X509Certificates;

public class Example
{
    static void Main()
    {
        Console.WriteLine("\r\nExists Certs Name and Location");
        Console.WriteLine("------ ----- -------------------------");

        foreach (StoreLocation storeLocation in (StoreLocation[])
            Enum.GetValues(typeof(StoreLocation)))
        {
            foreach (StoreName storeName in (StoreName[])
                Enum.GetValues(typeof(StoreName)))
            {
                X509Store store = new X509Store(storeName, storeLocation);

                try
                {
                    store.Open(OpenFlags.OpenExistingOnly);

                    Console.WriteLine("Yes    {0,4}  {1}, {2}",
                        store.Certificates.Count, store.Name, store.Location);
                }
                catch (CryptographicException)
                {
                    Console.WriteLine("No           {0}, {1}",
                        store.Name, store.Location);
                }
            }
            Console.WriteLine();
        }
    }
}

Example 2

This example opens an X.509 certificate store, adds and deletes certificates, and then closes the store. It assumes that you have three certificates to add to and remove from a local store.
