Answer 1

public X509Certificate2 GetCertificate()
{
    var config = InitConfiguration();
    var certificateSubject = "X509Subject";
    var certificateStoreName = "X509StoreName";
    var certificateStoreLocation = "X509StoreLocation";
    var thumbPrint = "ThumbPrint";

    var storeName = (StoreName)Enum.Parse(typeof(StoreName), certificateStoreName, true);
    var storeLocation = (StoreLocation)Enum.Parse(typeof(StoreLocation), certificateStoreLocation, true);

    var certificateStore = new X509Store(storeName, storeLocation);
    certificateStore.Open(OpenFlags.ReadOnly);

    foreach (var storeCertificate in certificateStore.Certificates)
    {
        if (storeCertificate.Thumbprint.ToLower(System.Globalization.CultureInfo.CurrentCulture) == thumbPrint.ToLower(System.Globalization.CultureInfo.CurrentCulture))
        {return storeCertificate;
        }
    }
certificateStore.Close();
    return null;
}
