- A cryptographic service provider is a program that performs authentication, encoding, and cryptographic services, and is accessed by Windows-based applications through the Microsoft cryptographic application programming interface.
- Cryptographic Service Provider
- Applies To: Windows 7, Windows Server 2008 R2
- Cryptographic Service Provider (CSP) is implemented
- During the import of various certificates, many people will be prompted: "An internal error occurred. The configuration file is not accessible or the private key you are importing requires an encryption service provider , but the provider is not installed on your system. "
- The so-called configuration files cannot be accessed. Generally, you are not logged in with an administrator account and do not have administrator rights.
- The so-called need of an encryption service provider, here are a few steps to solve:
- Run services.msc, start Cryptographic Service, or enter net start cryptsvc in the command line to view the system services.
- If the Cryptographic Service is automatically started by the system, check whether the HTTP SSL service is started; if it is still normal
- Then check to see if the Encrypting File System (encrypting file system) is started, if not, change it to start automatically.
- In fact, the key to these problems is that some system services are not turned on. If the above two services fail to solve the problem, here I list the system service tables that should be set to start normally. As long as the services in the following table are started, the problem can be solved.
