DESCRIPTION
    The Switch-Certificate cmdlet marks one certificate as having been replaced by another certificate. This cmdlet 
    triggers a replace certificate notification and optionally sets the renewal property on the certificate being 
    replaced.
    

PARAMETERS
    -NewCert 
        Specifies an X509 certificate or a certificate path for the certificate that replaces the certificate 
        specified with the OldCert parameter.
        
        Required?                    true

    -NotifyOnly []
        Creates a replacement certificate notification without replacing the NewCert parameter with the OldCert

OUTPUTS
        None
    
        
    
    
    EXAMPLE 1
    
    PS C:\>Switch-Certificate -OldCert cert:\LocalMachine\My\E42DBC3B3F2771990A9B3E35D0C3C422779DACD7 -NewCert 
    cert:\LocalMachine\My\4A346B4385F139CA843912D358D765AB8DEE9FD4
    
    This example sets the renewal property of the certificate with the thumbprint 
    E42DBC3B3F2771990A9B3E35D0C3C422779DACD7 as renewed by the certificate with the thumbprint 
    4A346B4385F139CA843912D358D765AB8DEE9FD4 and generates a replace certificate notification.
    
    
    EXAMPLE 2
    
    PS C:\>Set-Location -Path cert:\LocalMachine\My
    
    
    
    PS C:\>$oldCert = (Get-ChildItem -Path E42DBC3B3F2771990A9B3E35D0C3C422779DACD7)
    
    
    
    PS C:\>$newCert = (Get-ChildItem -Path 4A346B4385F139CA843912D358D765AB8DEE9FD4)
    
    
    
    PS C:\>Switch-Certificate -OldCert $oldCert -NewCert $newCert -NotifyOnly
    
    This example locates two certificates in the machine MY store and assigns them the variables $oldCert and 
    $newCert. This cmdlet then generates a replacement notification without changing a renewal property of the old 
    certificate.
