SimpleCAPI

The “Certificates” snap-in available for the Microsoft Management Console is a useful tool that can display the status of the Windows certificate stores. However, this display is limited in its ability to check certificate revocation. Additionally, the console interface is cumbersome for advanced users when trying to add or remove multiple certificates, as each operation requires clicking through a wizard and confirming the action. SimpleCapiUI not only provides the ability to quickly check the revocation status of certificates stored in CAPI, but it also provides drag-and-drop functionality so that a user can install certificates into CAPI by dragging a certificate, PKCS#12 key file, or PKCS#7 signature file onto the interface. Additionally, an entire folder may be dropped into the application, and SimpleCapiUI will scan the folder recursively to find certificates to install. By reducing the complexity of dealing with the Windows certificate store, SimpleCapiUI streamlines the process of testing PKI-enabled software.

Note: SimpleCapiUI will allow you to save your PKCS#12 passwords, but these are not stored securely. ONLY use this feature for test certificates!
