Cert Store Creation Fails Against Local Machine

[SarahD443]

I created a new certificate store through the Keyfactor Command management portal referencing the server on which the Windows orchestrator (v8.5) was running as the target for the store. The create failed with messages seeming to suggest that the password for the store couldn't be accessed. A WinRM trace indicated that the password entered for the store at creation was in fact being passed through at the WinRM level (https://www.dpetzel.info/post/windows/debugging_winrm/).
