WM Keeper Light personal certificate must be renewed once in a year.
WM Keeper Light will notify you about the necessity to renew your certificate by a message on the “Purses” page approximately a month before the current certificate expires.
If you failed to renew your certificate before the current certificate has expired, then you must contact our Technical Support.
The procedure for renewing your certificate is the same as for obtaining a certificate when registering with WM Keeper Light. Let’s follow this procedure step-by-step on the example of Firefox browser.
Login to your WM Keeper Light and go to the “Purses” page. In the notification about certificate renewal find the link www.wmcert.com and click it.
In the opened window enter your e-mail address. This can be the e-mail you specified when registering with WM Keeper Light or any other e-mail. Your new certificate will be the certificate for the specified e-mail address and you will be able to sign your messages with it.
Then press the “Register” button.
If the opened page is the same as the one showed below, it means your certificate has been generated and you must install it to the browser’s storage. To do so, click the “Install certificate” link.
If the certificate is installed, the system will pop up the following message:
.
You can also save the certificate to local disk by right-clicking the specified link and selecting the “Save as…” menu option.
Then close the message and click the “Launch” button and confirm that you want to install the certificate.
Remove the old certificate from the storage. To do so, go to browser settings > menu “Tools→ Options”, section “Advanced”, switch to the “Encryption” tab, press the “View Certificates” button, select the old certificate and click the “Remove” button.
Close the Options window and click the “Launch” button.
Restart your browser and login to WM Keeper Light – light.wmtransfer.com
If the certificate generated by the server has not been installed to the browser’s storage, you can complete the installation manually – the certificate registered and signed on the server (the file with .cer extension) can be sent to your e-mail address. For some browsers (Internet Explorer, Opera) it is enough just to import the certificate received by e-mail to the storage. In the Firefox browser the installation procedure is more complex.
Right after you renew the certificate create backup copy on portable information storage. To do so, in the Firefox browser open certificate manager – menu “Tools-Options”, “Advanced” section, switch to the “Encryption” tab, click the “View Certificates” button, select the certificate on the “Your certificates” tab and click the “Save copy…” and select where you want to save it and specify the password.
If you failed to renew your certificate due to whatever reasons before it expired and if you need access to your WMID, then you need to send from your e-mail (the one you specified during the registration) the number of your WMID and certificate file with private key in format <file name>.PFX (*.P12) with the password to the file to wmlight@wmtransfer.com.
Within five working days we will send you the link for restoring the certificate and password.
If you send the message from another e-mail (not the one you specified during the registration), then you must specify the reasons for changing your e-mail and specify the password, entered when registering in the system.
If you have already renewed the certificate, but you have lost the certificate, then you must follow the procedure for restoring the certificate.
