Delete a certificat

To remove a certificate from the list, click on the button to the right of the certificate.

Please note! Deletion is immediate: no confirmation is required.

 

The http-server certificate is installed by default during installation. It cannot be removed as it secures the Watchdoc DSP server. To delete this certificate, it is therefore necessary to generate or import another, then designate it as the current certificate before deleting the other.
