Correct way to replace a certificate thats about to expire in RDWEB Webclient (HTML5)

Question

Hello,

Can someone point me in the right direction (MS article maybe?) for replacing the certificate on RDWEB Webclient thats about to expire.
Do i simply run this again? Import-RDWebClientBrokerCert <.cer file path>

Thanks for the help.

Hello @van Daalen

1. Delete all the old certificates in the personal store of the RD Webserver
2. Reboot the Webserver
3. Generate a new certificate request in IIS Manager https://www.techwithahammer.com/2017/07/27/windows-20122012-r2-remote-desktop-services-new-or-renew-certificate/
4. Imported it into Certificates - Local Computer > Personal in certlm
5. Export the .pfx file for the Connection Broker
6. Redeploy the certificate using the Server Manger / Remote Desktop Services / Deployment Overview / Tasks / Edit Deployment Settings

Hello Karlie,

Thank you. But what you are explaining is for normal RD Deployment, i know how this works.

The question im asking is for RDWeb Webclient (HTML5 client)
I know how to place the certificate, but how do i renew it when the certificate is about to expire.

Thanks.
