separate window with message disappears, no result indication #38

Describe the bug Running this app generates a new window that looks to be a command prompt. It may or may not sit there blank for a few seconds, then it will print some text with potentially yellow or red colouring to the window and then immediately close - giving the user less that 100 milliseconds to read the text.

To Reproduce Install MSI Start and new cmd or powershell session and run the program.

Expected behavior I expected any text result message to be output to the shell I started the program from - or barring that at least persisted in some way somewhere. Event Viewer would work as long as there was a message in the normal shell saying I should check event viewer for the result.

Screenshots or Logs The problem blinks away way too fast for capturing a screenshot.

Desktop (please complete the following information): Windows Server 2016

@davidpricedev, Try running WinCertes from an elevated/admin shell. IIS certificates are stored in the Local Machine certificate store, and handling them requires admin rights.
