  When attempting to renew a certificate

  (cert, right-click) --> All Tasks --> Advanced Options --> Renew This Certificate With The Same Key
  

  I get the following error message:

  Enrollment Error
  The request contains no certificate template information.
  

  The "Resolution" in Microsoft KB 910249 :

  To resolve this issue, use an alternative method to request certificates from an enterprise CA. For more information, visit the following Microsoft Web page: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/l.../cc782583.aspx
  The "Advanced Certificate Enrollment and Management" white paper describes various methods for requesting certificates from an enterprise CA. For example, you can request certificates by using the Web-based CA interface, by creating .inf files that contain certificate information, by using the Certreq.exe utility, and by using the Certutil.exe utility.
  

  While the white paper contains a lot of information about new certificate requests (and I have used certreq in the recent past), there was no useful information about renewing certificates.
  
  A little more searching brought me to certutil , but when I run it, I get

  C:\Windows\system32>certutil -renewCert
  CertUtil: The system cannot find the file specified.
  

  This may seem like a stupid question, but what file is it looking for?
  
  
  UPDATE: I get the same message if I select "Renew Certificate With New Key..." and "Advanced Options" --> "Request New Certificate With The Same Key"

   

  A screenshot can be seen at http://www.petri.co.il/forums/showthread.php?p=237337 , where I've posted the same question.
