Digital ID missing its private key

I had to reinstall Nitro due to a crash and now I can't get my Digital Signatures to work. I have regenerated the PFK keys with its private key and even contacted the certificate company for assistance. They walked me through step by step to generate a new private key PFK from them to assure it was correct.

Nitro imports the PFK just fine and looks good until signing the document, in which it errors "The selected profile is missing its private key and cannot be used to sign this document.

Pleas advise.

Hello @Jeffrey Baker,

Thank you for reaching out to us through our Community Forums!

To further assist you, what build of Nitro Pro are you working with?

You can find this out by clicking on 'About Nitro Pro' under the Help tab (format is 12.X.X.X, e.g. 12.0.0.112) or you can go to Control Panel > Programs and Features.

Thank you very much in advance and I am looking forward to hearing back from you.

Re-opening this thread. Here I am two years later with the exact same problem. I don't use this digital PFK often (obviously) and I think last time (two years ago) I just fudged something to make it work for the company requesting it.

I'm using Nitro Pro 12.16.9.574. Step by step, exact same issue as posted originally.

Please advise.
