You need to save your public key somewhere or ask the user to enter it when the program next runs. The private key should be derived from the public key. Take a look here[^] for some useful samples.

It's time for a new signature.

You should save your public and private keys somewhere, otherwise how can you use them again later? Their usage is to make the public key available to everyone you want to exchange encrypted informations with you, and hold the private key somewhere where only you are able to access it ;)

Then, what does KeyContainer have to use? the KeyContainer can not store cipherkey , Why MS provided it? What is KeyContainer practical significance?
