For some reason I am missing makecert.exe on my system. I searched the whole hard drive and it's not there. In particular, it's not in C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v6.0A\bin where I believe it's supposed to be. I haven't found any articles on this topic on the Internet. Any ideas what's going on?

The tool is installed in the \Bin folder of the Microsoft Windows Software Development Kit (SDK) installation path. OutputFile is the name of the file where the certificate will be written. You can omit OutputFile if the certificate is not to be written to a file.
To do so, open an elevated Command Prompt window and then navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\8.1\Bin\X64. Now, enter the MakeCert command, followed by any necessary parameters.
* Retrieve the available options for makecert: REM Retrieve the basic options of makecert makecert.exe -? REM Retrieve the extended options of makecert makecert.exe -! To create a self-signed certificate file (and PVK private key file) that can be used on different systems, you can run the first set of parameters.
makecert.exe is also installed as part of Windows SDKs. For example it is available under \Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.0A\bin for the Windows 7.0A SDK.
