What's the basis for "automatically select the certificate store based on the type of certificate"?
When I import a certificate, I'm offered the option to "automatically select the certificate store based on the type of certificate".
What basis does Windows use? Which types of certificate end up in which stores?
Solution 1:
Certificates are encoded with intended uses and I would assume those would be the best way to categorize the certificates.
Here's more info on the usages:
