Displaying an imported X509 certificate

[NewsBot]

I have an X509Certificate2-instance fMainCertificate that contains a certificate I imported from a file. I verify this certificate by building an X509Chain-instance, including all the certificates in the certification path of the main certificate (fExtraCertificates), like this:X509Chain lChain = new X509Chain(); lChain.ChainPolicy.RevocationFlag = X509RevocationFlag.ExcludeRoot; lChain.ChainPolicy.RevocationMode = X509RevocationMode.Online; lChain.ChainPolicy.VerificationFlags = X509VerificationFlags.AllFlags; foreach(X509Certificate2 lCertificate in fExtraCertificates) lChain.ChainPolicy.ExtraStore.Add(lCertificate); bool lSuccess = lChain.Build(fMainCertificate);This validates the main certificate and returns true. But when I display the certificate, like this:X509Certificate2UI.DisplayCertificate(fMainCertificate);the certificate dialog says that "Windows does not have enough information to verify this certificate.". The tab page "Certification Path" tells me "The issuer of this certificate could not be found.". How can I link the certificates in fExtraCertificates to the main certificate so they are used in the dialog?
