If the error appears when logging in, you need to follow these steps to resolve it

1. Make sure that the medium with the certificate is inserted (the medium with the certificate is usually a floppy disk or a ruToken smart card). The media must match the selected certificate.

2. Open “Start” > “Control Panel” > “ CryptoPro CSP» > Tools tab > Remove remembered passwords button. In the window that opens, select the “User” item in the “Delete all remembered private key passwords” section and click on the “OK” button.

If, when reinstalling a certificate, the “Select Key Container” window is empty, or the required container is not displayed in it, then use the following recommendations.

4. If a floppy disk is used as a key media, it should not be write-protected (on a write-protected floppy disk, both slots located in the corners of the media are open).

5. If a flash drive whose name has been changed is used as a key media, then you must return the previous name.

6. If a floppy disk or flash drive is used as a key container, you must make sure that in the root of the media there is a folder containing the files: header, masks, masks2, name, primary, primary2. Files must have the extension . key, and the format of the folder name should be as follows: xxxxxx.000 .

If any files are missing or their format is incorrect, then the private key container may have been damaged or deleted. The container may also be damaged if these files cannot be copied, for example, to the Desktop.

If the folder with the listed files is not on the floppy disk (flash drive), then the certificate is missing on it. You need to check whether the certificate is contained on other media.

Purchasing the key turned out to be very easy and even pleasant. Many thanks to manager Mikhail for his assistance. Explains complex and difficult-to-understand things succinctly, but very clearly. Besides, I called the hotline toll free line and left an application online, together with Mikhail. They made a key for me in 2 business days. In general, I recommend it if you are saving your time, but at the same time want to have an understanding of what you are buying and what you are paying for. Thank you.
