certutil: List all certificates in a database.
$ certutil -L -d .
try on your machine

The command "certutil -L -d ." is used to list the certificates in a specified directory.

Here's what each part of the command does:

  • certutil: It is a command-line utility in Windows used to manage certificates, certificate trust lists, and certificate revocation lists.
  • -L: It specifies the action to list the certificates.
  • -d .: It specifies the directory where the certificates are stored. In this case, the dot (.) indicates the current directory.

So when you run this command, it will list the certificates present in the current directory. The output will include details about each certificate, such as its issuer, subject, serial number, etc.

This explanation was created by an AI. In most cases those are correct. But please always be careful and never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
