Recently I managed to add an extra certificate store to Windows by mistake, as I accidentally left out a command line argument when using makecert. Unfortunately, the Certificates MMC snap-in doesn't seem to provide a way for you to delete a certificate store, so I had resort to a more technical approach in order to get rid of this new unwanted certificate store.

Windows Certificate Store. This type of digital certificate locks the ID to a user on a particular computer and cannot be copied and imported to another computer. ● Windows Certificate Store (Windows only) Stores the digital ID to a common location from where Microsoft Office programs can also retrieve it. If you are on Mac OS, you won't see these options.

Digging around in the Windows API, I found the CertUnregisterSystemStore function that allows you to delete a certificate store programmatically. So I spun up my copy of LINQPad so that I could quickly script in C# and PInvoke that function. (Incidentally, if you don't have a copy of LINQPad and you're a .NET developer, you need to get yourself a copy immediately. It's invaluable.) Unfortunately, CertUnregisterSystemStore takes a flags parameter, and the actual values of the different flags are defined in C++ .h files, which are not available from C#. So I punched out a few PowerShell commands to search the .h files in the Windows SDK for those #define lines.

I've also included the flags needed to delete stores from the local machine (as opposed to the current user account) in the script above, in case anyone ever needs to do that.

Adobe Acrobat uses the term 'digital ID' for digital certificate.
