No wonder. Mine's set to 48 hrs but I don't recall manually changing it.

Will the certificate upload show in the upload window? If yes I'm safe on this occasion.

The certificates folder is a little confusing when you have many. Since I certified all simultaneously there was no time/date indicator either to give a hint. I was not enthusiastic about opening up over 1k of certificates to find several dozen. So I started them from scratch. Unless a file has been changed I presume the certificate would be identical to the original in any case (with exception of date and time listed within.)

No, certificates are shared via a completely different code path and it will be difficult to display how many times a certificate has been uploaded anywhere in the UI. Also, just because it's been uploaded doesn't mean the remote side has imported it (the user has to click "Import" in order to store someone else's certificate).

Indeed, managing certificates manually is not easy and I don't really want it to be. This is a feature users should be careful with, hence the warnings in the UI and on the wiki. If you have deleted any certificates manually, you should restart MW because it caches them in memory.

I did. Also there'd been no uploads since adding the original certificates so no issue this time.

Any possibility of also adding a Find (or Locate) on Disk tool to library & uploads?

You've been doing a great job with this project.
