 ## Remarks  
- The thumbprint is dynamically generated using the SHA1 algorithm and does not physically exist in the certificate. Since the thumbprint is a unique value for the certificate, it is commonly used to find a particular certificate in a certificate store.

+ This property always use the SHA-1 hash algorithm to compute the hash. To get the thumbprint using a different hash algorithm, use <xref:System.Security.Cryptography.X509Certificates.X509Certificate.GetCertHashString(System.Security.Cryptography.HashAlgorithmName)>.
