dotnet dev-certs (again)

I need to raise this again.

I've read extensively on the problem, taken all the steps. completely removed all runtimes and SDK's and reinstalled. repeatedly dumped the certs from the key chain, re-run the cert generator, to no avail.

none of these 'solutions' works.

Application Insights Telemetry: Microsoft.AspNetCore.Server.Kestrel.Https.Internal.HttpsConnectionMiddleware: Error: The ASP.NET Core developer certificate is in an invalid state. To fix this issue, run the following commands 'dotnet dev-certs https --clean' and 'dotnet dev-certs https' to remove all existing ASP.NET Core development certificates and create a new untrusted developer certificate. On macOS or Windows, use 'dotnet dev-certs https --trust' to trust the new certificate.

clearing doesn't work as the cert is stated as still present once a the clear down has completed. the app when loading repeatedly asks for the cert and tries to create one.

it just doesn't work... it's an absolute PINTA and I've spent days on it...
