Recently I ran into situation where I needed to access the Certificate Store scoped to a specific Windows Service. If you’re not familiar with this, the Certificate Store on Windows can be scoped to different levels. There’s the global store that’s scoped to LocalMachine, then there are user-specific stores which default to the CurrentUser.

It’s a bit overdue, but I’ve begun work on ACMESharp 2.0 or what I’m branding as ACMESharpCore. The goal of this version is to address a few shortcomings and changes that are either necessary or desired. Some folks have questioned if the ACMESharp project is still alive and I wanted to let people know that the project is alive, but also what they can expect and when.
