KeyName Property

Description

Name of the key container that contains the private key of the certificate.

Property type

Read-only property

Syntax

Visual Basic
Public Property KeyName As String

Remarks

The key name is also useful when deleting the key pair associated with a certificate. You cannot recover a key pair once it is destroyed. A new key pair needs to be generated and a new certificate needs to be issued. This is recommended for advanced users only. See the Microsoft Crypto API documentation for more information.
