Success CenterThe Microsoft Trusted Root Certificate Program releases changes to our Root Store on a monthly cadence, except for December. The public can expect the following cadence for releases:
- Additions and non-deprecating modifications will be completed any month
- Certificate Authority (CA)-initiated and CA-confirmed deprecations occur on even numbered months
- Microsoft-initiated deprecations occur in February and August releases
If you are a certificate user who has active certificates chained up to a deprecating root, please reach out to your CA to understand how changes may impact your certificates.Update packages will be available for download and testing at https://aka.ms/CTLDownload
Note that the changes listed are accurate at the time of posting but are subject to change.
A list of Root Store participants, updated monthly, can be found here: https://aka.ms/trustcertpartners.
