How to get store certificate for Win phone 8.1 app?

i have a question about certificate for windows phone 8.1 Universal app. I passed these steps but certificate wasn't appeare in project:

  1. I open it in Visual Studio 2015.
  2. Right click project and choose Store=>Associate app with store
  3. I log in my microsoft developer account and choose app from the list
  4. I checke information about Publisher, Package and so on and press next

After these steps Package.StoreAssociation.xml is created, but AppName_StoreKey.pfx isn't.

Please, help me. What should I do to get AppName_StoreKey.pfx certificate. (I don't need test certificate).

Thank you.

For my experience, only Windows 8.1 app project will contain a TemporaryKey.pfx file. If you create a universal Windows 8.1 app, it will include an AppName.Windows_TemporaryKey.pfx file under the Windows 8.1 project but not Windows Phone 8.1. This should also apply to the _StoreKey.pfx.

But it won't make effect on your package submission. Just make sure you have associated your app with the Store, the identity info will be aligned automatically. You can still manage to upload your package: enter image description here Updated:

Also, you can check the two Windows universal 8.1 package manifests in designer.

The Windows 8.1 package manifest have the choose certificate option while Windows phone 8.1 does not: enter image description here enter image description here
