Issue Details

When I try to update my certificate in NI Web Server I'm getting error:

Could not find part of the path 'path'

Solution

This error message means that the path can't be resolved, so you should check your environment and confirm that the expected 'path' exists.

 

When using Remote Desktop Connection on Windows: there is a group policy that can cause Windows to create/use different temporary folders for each session, which may cause you to reference an "unexpected path", the usual tell is a number added into the path like: \2\. If you see this behavior, please try changing the group policy configuration. This external link showcases where you can find this policy.
