Retrieving certificates installed under a different User. Get-ChildItem Cert:\<username>\My

IMHO it is not possible. User's certificate store is encrypted using user's password. So without the password of the user you cannot access it.

I want the powershell equivalent for retrieving certificates installed under a different user.
Does something like this exist?
Get-ChildItem Cert:\<username>\My
More options other just
LocalMachine
orCurrentUser
. This command is executed by a Admin account.Update:
While this does not answer my question, I was able to locate the certifcate on the filesystem. Certs for installed for a local user are located under:
C:\Users\%USERPROFILE%\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Crypto\RSA
