DESCRIPTION

By default, one is guided to create a Self-Signed Certificate.

A certificate is imported by either specifying a CertificateFile and PrivateKeyFile, or specifying a PfxFile with an optional PfxPassword.

A certificate request can be created by specifying a RequestFile path to output the request to.
