How can I change the certificate of the Dynamsoft Service?

To replace the default certificate, the steps are:

• Generate a certificate for 127.0.0.1
• Install that certificate
• Use that certificate to generate public /private keys (pem)
• Rename these two keys to server.pem (public) and server_key.pem (private)
• Replace the old keys in C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Dynamsoft\DynamsoftServicex64_17\cert
• Restart the service

NOTE: For v17.2 or higher versions, you can use the new API UpdateCert to automatically update the client side certificate.
