PFX is a common certificate format for Windows servers. The file in this format contains the certificate associated with its private key and, if applicable, intermediate certificates that sign the domain end-entity certificate. As a rule, it has a *.pfx or *.p12 extension. Basically, creating a PFX file is the only way to export a private key from a Microsoft Windows server on which the CSR code was generated.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Follow these steps to perform the certificate export:<\/span><\/p>\n<h4 id=\"pfx_creat\"><em><strong>Creating a .pfx file<\/strong><\/em><\/h4>\n<p id=\"pfx_mmc\"><em><strong>Creating a .pfx file in MMC<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Launch Microsoft Management Console.
