The bugs meant that some users couldn’t run the tool at all and I had heard there were some security issues with 1.6 so it is probably a good plan to upgrade with 1.8 coming along this summer as well.

Hopefully it is only a few key-clicks worth of inconvenience

Cheers

I thought you should know that we have recently released a new version of CertWizard which has fixed some bugs.

The impact of this is that the Java libraries we were previously using had known issues which they couldn’t fix

(for complicated backwards-compatible reasons) and therefore to get the new interface which fixed them

we had to move to having minimum Java 1.7 on your systems

This means that those of you who only have Java 1.6 installed may have issues when trying to run CW. The

solution is to upgrade to Java 1.7

Cheers and sorry for any inconvenience this may cause
