This opens a screen with two windows. The upper window shows existing certificates, the lower window shows the certificate info including dates Valid from and Valid to. In the top window, choose Add ID and follow the prompts to add a new certificate ID. Maybe you are looking for. Vendor master data changes. Hi all, Please help me with some useful information regarding the history of master data creationa and changes.

Sometimes, when we try to place a digital signature in a PDF file with specially developed software, an error message appears with one of the following descriptions:

The Windows cryptographic service provider reported an error. Specified invalid vendor type, invalid signature, security breach, code 2148073504 or missing key set

21480735

In most cases, the problem is caused by obsolete certificates or corrupted registry settings. So, the first thing you want to do is to reset or recreate the user profile in the domain to check the result.

The cryptography service provider reported an error

January 2021 Update:

We now recommend using this tool for your error. Additionally, this tool fixes common computer errors, protects you against file loss, malware, hardware failures and optimizes your PC for maximum performance. You can fix your PC problems quickly and prevent others from happening with this software:

• Step 1 : Download PC Repair & Optimizer Tool (Windows 10, 8, 7, XP, Vista – Microsoft Gold Certified).
• Step 2 : Click “Start Scan” to find Windows registry issues that could be causing PC problems.
• Step 3 : Click “Repair All” to fix all issues.

(1) According to Microsoft, a cryptography service provider (CSP) contains cryptographic standards and algorithm implementations. A CSP consists of at least one Dynamic Link library (DLL), which implements the functions in CryptoSPI (a system program interface). Providers implement cryptographic algorithms, generate keys, provide key memories and authenticate users.

If you are faced with errors, here are some things you might want to try:

1] Run services.msc and restart the Windows cryptographic service.

2] Open Internet Explorer > Tools > Internet Options. Select the Content tab and click Certificates. Check whether there is a certificate for the program or vendor issuing errors. If it is missing, you must create a new one. When it expires, remove it and create a new one. If a particular certificate does not work, select another certificate and delete the old certificates.

5] Reinstall the user’s entire certificate list and certificates.

6] If you have installed the SafeNet Authentication Client Tool on your system, open the application by navigating to its installation directory or right-clicking the SafeNet icon in the taskbar and selecting Tools from the menu.

Click on the’Gear’ icon to open the’Extended View’ area. Under Advanced View, expand the Token area and navigate to the certificate you want to use for signing. You can find them in the User certificates group.

Right-click your certificate and select Set as CSP from the drop-down menu. Repeat the same step for all certificates you use.

Close SafeNet Client Tools Authentication and try signing the documents again.

7] Recreate the Microsoft Cryptography Local Store folder. Navigate to the folder C:ProgramDataMicrosoftCryptoRSA. Rename the folder to S-1-5-18. Reboot your system and see if it helps.

8] If you have installed the ePass2003 software, the cause of the problem may be the e-token ePass2003. It is recommended to uninstall and reinstall it first. To do this, go to the Tool Settings section, navigate to the applications and features and uninstall it like any other application.

Restart your computer and reinstall ePass2003. When reinstalling, be sure to select MicroSoft CSP if you select the CSP option. Things should return to normal and the Windows encryption service provider error should no longer occur.

Best wishes!

The Cryptographic Services (CryptSvc) service provides key-management services for the computer. Cryptographic Services is composed of the following management services:

• Catalog Database Service. This service adds, removes, and looks up catalog files, which are used to sign all the files in the operating system. Windows File Protection (WFP), Driver Signing, and setup use this service to verify signed files. You cannot stop this service during setup. If the service stops after setup, it restarts when it is requested by an application.
• Protected Root Service. This service adds and removes Trusted Root Certification Authority certificates. The service displays a service message box with the certificate's name and thumbprint. If you click OK, the certificate is added or removed from your current list of trusted root authorities. Only Local System accounts have write access to the list. If this service stops, the current user cannot add or remove Trusted Root Certification Authority certificates.
• Automatic Root Certificate Update Service. This service retrieves root certificates as needed from Windows Update. This service can be used in support secure-sockets-layer (SSL) sessions to help ensure that server certificates are kept up-to-date. If this service stops, root certificates must be updated manually.
• Key Service. This service allows administrators to enroll for certificates on behalf of the local computer account. The service provides several functions that are required for enrollment, such as enumeration of available certification authorities, enumeration of available computer templates, and the ability to create and submit a certificate request in the local computer context. Only administrators can enroll on behalf of the local computer account. The Key Service also allows administrators to remotely install Personal Information Exchange (PFX) files on the computer. If this service stops, autoenrollment cannot automatically acquire the default set of computer certificates.

The Cryptographic Services service is installed by default and its startup type is Automatic. When Cryptographic Services service is started in its default configuration, it logs on by using the Network Service account. If it stops, the management services that are referenced in the preceding paragraphs do not function properly.

The Cryptographic Services service is dependent on the following system components:

Windows Cryptographic Service Provider

• Remote Procedure Call (RPC)
• DCOM Server Process Launcher
• RPC Endpoint Mapper

Windows Cryptographic Service

The following system component is dependent upon the Cryptographic Services service:

• Application Identity service
