Hello, we have a Windows Server 2012 R2 as a domain controller and we receive several event id 64 messages.... Certificate for local system with Thumbprint "xx....xx" is about to expire or already expired.
This has been appearing for sevarl months and does not appear to be affecting anything. I understand that this can be ignored but wanted to clean this up. These thumbprints do not seem to appear in the Certificates MMC program. How can I find them and remove?
Thank you
