While you will be installing on-premises version of Dynamics 365 for finance and operations, as you will be running following PowerShell command you will most likely face error

.\Export-PfxFiles.ps1 -ConfigurationFilePath .\ConfigTemplate.xml

The error message will be suggesting you following

No ProtectTo exist for certificate with type

You need to modify ConfigTemplate.xml to include users’ accounts in ProtectTo tag of configuration.

All your user accounts or groups should be separated by semicolons such as following

<ProtectTo>DomainName\UserName1;DomainName\UserGroup</ ProtectTo >

Hello Sohaib, I keep getting the error, 'The value of the "ProtectTo parameter contains an invalid group or account name'. I added the domain administrator to the protect To but nothing seems to solve the problem. Can you help me?
