When imported, it automatically patches certifi to include CA certificates trusted by your Windows installation, allowing Python packages to verify TLS/SSL connections to servers whose CAs are in your system store. The merged certificate file is kept up to date even when certifi is updated.\n\nThe package depends on wrapt, certifi, setuptools-scm, and wincertstore. It is explicitly abandoned and has been superseded by pip-system-certs; the last release was 2022-07-02. No active maintenance or security updates are provided.","worth_installing":"No. The package is explicitly abandoned and superseded by pip-system-certs. While it has low install friction and no known vulnerabilities, the maintainer's own note recommends against use. If you need Windows certificate store integration, migrate to the stated replacement instead."},"id":"python-certifi-win32","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/python-certifi-win32","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/python-certifi-win32.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/python-certifi-win32/"},"maintenance":{"status":"abandoned"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2022-07-02","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"python-certifi-win32","python_support":"unspecified","summary":"Add windows certificate store to certifi cacerts."},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":678779,"position":5373,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"1.6.1"}
