Client certificates & Windows accounts

If for security purposes you are planning on reducing an end user's permissions profile from Administrator to a
limited user, you must first uninstall the CPDMS.NET client certificate before any Windows account changes.

You may uninstall a certificate while logged in as the current user:
  1. Internet Explorer -> Tools -> Internet Options -> Content -> Certificates
  2. Click on Personal and select the client cert issued by CPDMS.NET CA
  3. Click Remove -> Answer Yes -> click Close -> click OK
After this step, you can change the user's Windows permission settings and then log back in as the user and re-install the client certificate. For client certificate installation instructions please click here Failure to perform the above, will lead to a user not being able to log in to CPDMS.NET. Unfortunately, the browser is not specific. It simply says Page can not be displayed.
