Renew Internal SSL certificate

Question
-
Hi
The certificates are renewed using the following steps. logged on locally on each server:
1. Open the Exchange Management Shell on the server.
2. Use the following command to generate a new self-signed certificate and have it enabled for SMTP, POP3 and IMAP4
New-ExchangeCertificate –Services
3. Verify that the certificate has been installed for the specified services by running the
Get-ExchangeCertificate command
4. the expired certificate is still installed on the server. safely removed by running the
Remove-ExchangeCertificate cmdlet.
Remove-ExchangeCertificate –Thumbprint
5. Restart the
Microsoft Exchange Active Directory Topology Service once completed.
so the validity has been renewed upto 20156. From an MMC, add the Local computer account’s Certificate snap-in and open the properties of the newly generated certificate. Confirm the validity of the certificate.
But My query is
it shows
The CA root certificate is not trusted, to enable trust install this certificate in trusted root certification authorities store.
does this needs to be care of or without that its still fine
please advise
Thanks

All Modern Browsers containing the list of trusted root certification authorities. If you have installed an SSL Certificate to your site from the authority which is not listed in browsers then browser will show the message that you have mentioned "The CA root Certificate is not trusted" and it will show to all users which are going to visit your site and all users may not continue with your site by seeing such message and moved away.
So its better to install an SSL Certificate from trusted Certificate Authority such as Symantec, Comodo, RapidSSL, Thawte and GeoTrust which has been listed in all modern browsers.
