10. Click Browse to change the file type to All Files (*.*).
11. Locate the downloaded root certificate ca.pem file and click Open. Then, click Next.
    

    You must change the file type to All Files (*.*) because .pem is not a standard certificate extension name.

13. Click Finish.
14. Click OK to complete the import of the root certificate.

Importing the Root Certificate to the Linux OS

You can use a connection tool (such as WinSCP or PuTTY) to upload the certificate to any directory on a Linux OS.
