Question
I'm using Tizen Studio 3.2 on Windows and have developed an application ready for deployment to real hardware. However, I'm encountering an issue where the Certificate Manager won't start. There's no error message or feedback - it simply doesn't respond.
I've tried multiple ways to launch it:
- Clicking the Certificate icon in Tizen Studio
- Using the menu path: Tools → Certificate Manager
- Starting it directly from the program list
I've also attempted to uninstall and reinstall the certificate extensions through the package manager, but this hasn't resolved the issue.
How can I diagnose why the Certificate Manager won't start and get it working properly?
Answer
