DSACryptoServiceProvider.UseMachineKeyStore Property

Definition

Gets or sets a value indicating whether the key should be persisted in the computer's key store instead of the user profile store.

public:
 static property bool UseMachineKeyStore { bool get(); void set(bool value); };
public static bool UseMachineKeyStore { get; set; }
static member UseMachineKeyStore : bool with get, set
Public Shared Property UseMachineKeyStore As Boolean

Property Value

true if the key should be persisted in the computer key store; otherwise, false.

Remarks

Setting this property to true is equivalent to passing the UseMachineKeyStore flag to a CspParameters object. The UseMachineKeyStore property applies to all code in the current application domain, while the CspParameters object applies only to classes that explicitly reference it. These settings are useful when impersonating or running under an account whose user profile is not loaded.
