How to programatically install a Root CA certificate on a Windows phone? This question is analogous to this one: How to install root certificate on Windows Phone 7?, Though, I'd like to know how to programatically do this.

Thank you.

  • This is really the kind of thing that an OS shouldn't let any application do silently, without explicit consent from the user (preferably from a settings interface in the OS itself). – Bruno May 02 '12 at 11:21

As said in the question you linked, there is no way to install a certificate programatically.

  • This answer doesn't add much to the question... :-( – Pedro Rolo May 02 '12 at 09:54
  • Well, you said you want to know how to programmatically do this, the answer is simple: you can't. The best workaround I can suggest is to store the certificate on a web server. When the user starts your application for the first time, display an explicative message, then use a WebBrowserTask to open the certificate with Internet Explorer, so the user can install it. – Kevin Gosse May 02 '12 at 10:10
