title: .cer and private key
body: <p>I imported a .cer that was given to me by a vendor into the local machine (Trusted root to be specific). I was told the private key is inside. I opened up the cert using some .Net code and it is reporting the cert has no private key. Have I done something wrong? I always thought private cert must be imported through a .pfx file. Thanks for your help in advance.</p>
