Certificate does not have a name

I’ve installed an SSL certificate in IIS, however the ‘Name’ column is showing as blank even though I entered a friendly name. Is there any way to fix this?

This is how you can change the friendly name (maybe there is a better & quicker way, but I only know this one):

  • Run mmc.exe

  • File | Add/Remove Snap-in…

  • Select Certificates and click “Add”

  • in new pop-up window choose Computer account and click “Next”

  • choose Local Computer and click “Finish”

  • now “OK”

  • On a left-side tree go to “Certificates (Local Computer) | Personal | Certificates”

  • Find your certificate, right click → Properties

  • Change Friendly name field’s value and save
