Remarks
  • SearchToken can be a certificate common name, a certificate serial number, a certificate Secure Hash Algorithm (SHA-1) hash, a requester name (that is, domain\user), or a user principal name (UPN) (that is, domain@user).

To recover an archived private key

Syntax

certutil-recoverkey [-f] [-user] [-gmt] [-seconds] [-split] [-v] [-pPassword] RecoveryBlobInFile [PFXOutFile] [RecipientIndex]]

Parameters
  • -recoverkey Recovers the archived private key.
  • -f Overwrites existing files or keys.
  • -user Uses the HKEY_CURRENT_USER keys or certificate store.
  • -gmt Displays time as Greenwich mean time.

  • -split Splits the embedded Abstract Syntax Notation One (ASN.1) elements, and saves them to files.
  • -v Specifies verbose output.
  • -p Password Specifies a password.
  • RecoveryBlobInFile Specifies the input file that contained the recovery blob retrieved from the CA.
  • PFXOutFile Specifies the file where you want to save the recovered key and associated PKCS #12 certificate.
  • Password Encrypts PFXOutFile to a password.
  • RecipientIndex Specifies the index of the key recovery agent (KRA) certificate to be used for decrypting the private key blob. If you do not specify this parameter, certutil tries all of the KRA certificates.
