Hi,
I have been shipping your licensing solution for several months now and have around 25,000 copies of my program distributed. In that volume, I have run into 4 customers with the following problem.
For some reason, some customers are unable to access the personal key store. I have been unable to find any correspondence to OS version or other factors, just that sometimes it doesn't work.
I found that I was able to work around this problem by putting the call to the RSACryptoServiceProvider in a try block. If an exception is thrown, I then set the CSPparameters to use the MachineKeystore. This causes things to work properly. I don't want to get more specific than this in a public forum, I will be glad to send you my code privately if you would like me to.
Thought you might want to know about this and incorporate it in a future release, I already have.
Thanks,
Don |
