Notes about the JKS file extension:



Errors in your registry are one of the common causes for incorrect file associations on your windows system. It is highly recommended that you check your registry for file association errors (will also check for any other registry errors).

The JKS file type is primarily associated with 'keytool' by Sun Microsystems, Inc.. keytool is a key and certificate management utility. It allows users to administer their own public/private key pairs and associated certificates for use in self-authentication (where the user authenticates himself/herself to other users/services) or data integrity and authentication services, using digital signatures. It also allows users to cache the public keys (in the form of certificates) of their communicating peers. A keystore is a storage facility for cryptographic keys and certificates. To actually use the certificates, you must use keytool to export the certificate from the keystore.
