As mentioned above, there is also a CLI version of the certificate tool. This was introduced in 7.3 to solve the problem of a non-X11 Linux installation or where the user is using a text based remote session. Also, where Windows is a ‘Core-Installation’ and thus a CLI version only.

The CLI version is not as rich in options as its UI counterpart, but it does have a set of useful options along with a set of examples.

To run the CLI version, simply enter the ‘exe’ name followed by the required arguments.

To see a list of the arguments and examples, like with all the Protector based CLIs enter:
