Running win8.1 rtm (MSDN). I've downloaded the sdk to
'C:\Users\foo\Downloads\Windows Kits\8.1\StandaloneSDK'.
No errors the first time I ran it ... attempting to re-run tells me all features are uptodate. I've re-booted.
Attempting to execute the makecert tool:
makecert -sky exchange -r -n "CN=myDevLaptop" -pe -a sha1 -len 2048 -ss My "myDevLap.cer"
and get:
makecert : The term 'makecert' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program. Check the spelling of the name, or if a path was included, verify that the path is correct and try again.
Suspect that the path's length is preventing further appendage.
I believe I'm going to need to cull my path a bit. The following explicitly entered path solved the original problem.
set-location 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\8.1\bin\x64\' makecert -sky exchange -r -n "CN=myDevLaptop" -pe -a sha1 -len 2048 -ss My "myDevLap.cer"
