## How to get Digital Certificates working on a computer without an Internet connection

To migrate your Digital Certificates onto another machine, follow the following steps:

2\. Browse to Trusted Root Certification Authorities \> Certificates.

3\. Select all certificates in the list (CTRL+A), right click and choose "All Tasks - Export".

4\. Choose "Personal Information Exchange - PKCS #12 (.PFX)". Click Next and enter a password.

5\. Click Next and enter a filename e.g. "Trusted Root Certification Authorities.pfx". Click Next, then Finish to export the file.

6\. Transfer the exported "Trusted Root Certification Authorities.pfx" to the computer with no Internet connection.
