    I'm trying to create a self-signed certificate using power shell. I have tried using import-module PKI but seems like it's supported on powershell v3.0 onward .Is any other way I could create a self-signed certificate using powershell v2.0?

      Is there any specific reason to stick with PowerShell 2.0?

    Please, read the page header in the referenced link. Makecert.exe is deprecated.

    since he using Windows 2008 and powershell 2, makecert will work just fine. @CryptoGuy.
