Summary
The
Thumbprintproperty onX509Certificate2always uses SHA-1 as the hash algorithm. I added a remark to the property indicating that to get the thumbprint using a different algorithm, such as SHA-256, they should useGetCertHashString. It is not always obvious to some people that the thumbprint of the cert and its hash are the same thing.
