New-SelfSignedCertificate won't work on Windows 7

New-SelfSignedCertificate cannot be run on Windows 7 Professional. I could be using Windows 10 system.

Yes, the shell was started using "Run as administrator".

As pointed out in the comments above, this is not possible on Windows 7.

However, if you are looking for something with similar API and capabilities, then I have used and can recommend this from the Microsoft Script Center:

You must install the AzureRM module to use Azure Commands via PowerShell. You can use the command below to do this.



Installer -Name AzureRM -AllowClobber
