ppc76 Posted January 27, 2009 Posted January 27, 2009 (edited) I've got a gut feeling the RSACryptoServiceProvider generates a key or key pair upon creating an instance. Is this true? I need to use the RSA.. class to use my own keys (which I know how to do, by the way) and do not want it to spend time creating keys that will never be used. Especially considering a key container can only be provided to the provider using the constructor (FAFAIK at the moment) Does it store it's own key in the registry before storing mine when I use the .FromXML method? Info on the web is quite sparse. Of course I find some extra info right after posting: the constructor creates a new key, if no default key is available. Next question is; what is the default key?
