The code below works pefectly to install a pfx on the current user. I want to install it on another user, by giving the username and password (without having to log in with that user). I did this a while ago with a batch file, how could I do this using C#? I've tried a few things, including impersonation but couldn't make it work. X509Certificate2 certificate = new X509Certificate2("C:\\teste\\cert.pfx", "password"); X509Store store = new X509Store(StoreName.My, StoreLocation.CurrentUser); store.Open(OpenFlags.ReadWrite); store.Add(certificate); store.Close(); Update: Thanks to Bill's code,

I'm trying to use the Remote Desktop API on a remote machine that I have Administrator rights on, however the WTSOpenServer call always returns error 5 ("Access denied"). I even tried calling WNetAddConnection2 to establish a session, which works fine (I can connect to IPC$ or C$) on the machine). I can also use the Remote Desktop client to actually start a terminal session to it. The remote machine is running Windows XP Pro SP3 and I'm running Windows XP Pro x64 SP2. Check the value of HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\TerminalServer\AllowRemoteRPC, it is set to 0 by default on

I have a list of computers from a SQL table Computers (with columns computerid guid, computername varchar(80), TeamviewerID varchar(30) ) and I want to create a web app that links teamviewer id and can start a teamviewer session. I have read and search lots of documents but did not find any way. Can anyone please suggest me or provide me any example that can help me in this. In ASP.NET you could generate something like a grid, with a list of computers, TeamViewer IDs and a "Connect" button. This button should just open a browser tab to the following URL: teamviewer8://remotecontrol?connectcc

I want to copy a file from my local C:\filename.png to the remote computer to which I am connected via remote desktop's C:\ drive. Is it possible to copy using powershell or anyother terminal command? I am using windows 7 (local PC) --- Remote Desktop (Windows Server 2003) Thomas Lee If your host's c: drive is injected into a terminal services session, it just gets a new drive letter in the remote session. On my network, my host machine's drives are injected into a VM and C: becomes M:. So in that case, in the remote session: copy c:\file.png m:\png BUt perhaps a beter way - from your host:

I've just created two Windows VM's in Azure, one 2012 Datacenter and a 2008 R2 SP1 and i am not able to connect via remote desktop to either of them. Both machines are running under the same cloud service and the RDP ports are mapped to two distinct public ports. Every time i try to connect i get the error message "The logon attempt failed". Using NMAP in a Linux VM i also have there, i was able to check that the port 3389 is OPEN in both machines. Also, the public RDP ports respond correctly (e.g. are open). I tried to enter using two different Windows 7 client machines, also with no lock.
