Trusted Root Certification Authorities Implicitly trusted CAs. Includes all of the certificates in the Third-Party Root CAs store plus root certificates from your organization and Microsoft. If you’re an administrator and want to add third-party CA certificates to this store for all computers in a Windows .NET Active Directory domain, you can use Group Policy to distribute trusted root certificates to your organization. Example
