Hello.
I can't find some certificates in Cert Stores. For example for DigiCert.
Here https://www.digicert.com/digicert-root-certificates.htm there are 3 root certs of DigiCert:
1) DigiCert High Assurance EV Root CA
2) DigiCert Assured ID Root CA
3) DigiCert Global Root CA
All tests for this root certs in Internet Explorer passed but I can't find the second ant the third cert in the Cert Stores of my Win7 Pro 64bit. There is only the first "DigiCert High Assurance EV Root CA". Where is the place of storing others?
p.s. It's worth saying that for example in Firefox's and Opera's Stores I could find all of these certs.

Hi,
To type and run "certmgr.msc" in Windows Search box with administraotr privilege.
In the Internet Explorer, Internet options->Content tab->Certificates.
Here is a guide can be referred to.

I used "mmc" command, it's just the same.
It is strangely but today I see the third certificate in the Store "DigiCert Global Root CA"! Yesterday it was absent!
Now I have only two certs in the Store:
1) DigiCert High Assurance EV Root CA
3) DigiCert Global Root CA
But "2) DigiCert Assured ID Root CA" is still absent. Why this happens?

I don't understand any more!
When I Test my browser for "DigiCert Assured ID Root CA" root certificate it appeared in the Store:
Although yesterday it wasn't so, I have tested all 3 root certs but in the Store there was only one - "DigiCert High Assurance EV Root CA"!
Why root certificates aren't constantly in storage? They disappear and appear strangely!

I have DigiCert High Assurance EV Root CA and DigiCert Assured ID Root CA without DigiCert Global Root CA on one computer. On another computer, there is only DigiCert High Assurance EV Root CA. All these certificates are under the Third-Party Root Certification Authorities.
When I opened the test link you posted, the DigiCert Assured ID Root CA appeared.
You'd better contact DigiCert Support for SSL certificates assistance.

And You confirm, that some root certificates appear and disappear strangely.
But this is not because of specific DigiCert certificates. How it could be because of specific DigiCert certificates? :)
I didn't tell you before, some root Verisign certificate I also can't find. Maybe others of others CA that also appear and disappear strangely. This is the OS specific issue not certificate's issue.
