CertUnregisterPhysicalStore function

The CertUnregisterPhysicalStore function removes a physical store from a specified system store collection. CertUnregisterPhysicalStore can also be used to delete the physical store.

Syntax

BOOL WINAPI CertUnregisterPhysicalStore(
  _In_ const void    *pvSystemStore,
  _In_       DWORD   dwFlags,
  _In_       LPCWSTR pwszStoreName
);

Parameters

pvSystemStore [in]

A pointer to an identifier of the system store collection from which the physical store is to be removed. It is either to a null-terminated Unicode string or to a CERT_SYSTEM_STORE_RELOCATE_PARA structure. For information about using the structure and on appending a ServiceName or ComputerName to the end of the system store name string, see CertRegisterSystemStore.

dwFlags [in]

The high word of the dwFlags parameter specifies the location of the system store. For information about defined high-word flags and on appending ServiceName, UserNames, and ComputerNames to the end of the system store name, see CertRegisterSystemStore.

The following low-word values are also defined. They can be combined using bitwise-OR operations with high-word values.

Value	Meaning
CERT_SYSTEM_STORE_RELOCATE_FLAG	The system store is not in its default registry location and pvSystemStore must be a pointer to a CERT_SYSTEM_STORE_RELOCATE_PARA structure.
CERT_STORE_DELETE_FLAG	The physical store is first removed from the system store collection and is then deleted.

 

pwszStoreName [in]

Null-terminated Unicode string that contains the name of the physical store.

Return value

If the function succeeds, the return value is TRUE.

If the function fails, the return value is FALSE.
