    4. Technical Help

    Why am I unable to create IoT CAB packages and FFU images after February 1st 2022?

    You can check which certificates you are using on the host machine by looking at the available certificates in „certmgr“ under „Personal\Certificates“. Also you will notice error messages about the expired vertificates when trying to build the CAB files with the -verbose parameter: New-IoTCabPackage All -verbose

    On February 1st 2022 some of the test certificates that are included in the Assessment and Deployment Kit (ADK) expired. Since then Microsoft has updated the ADK Addonkit repo with a set of new certificates that will not expire before 2027. You can apply the new certificats by cloning the ADK Addonkit repository, launching „IoTCorePShell.cmd“ and executing the command „installoemcerts.cmd“. Once that is done you should be able to build the CAB packages and FFU-Images again.
