Operating Systems

These resources are automatically tested on Windows Server 2016 and Windows Server 2019.

The resources should still work on Windows Server 2012 R2 and older operating systems, but are will no longer be updated to work with these older versions. The tests do not work on Windows Server 2012 R2 and older operating systems because of the missing features in the New-SelfSignedCertificate function.
