Makecert - create a certificate with the issuer name

I am trying to create a certificate using MakeCert so that the "Issued by" and "Issued by" columns respectively show "Issued by name" and "Issued by name" in the certificate manager.

makecert -ss My -n "CN=Issued By Name" -cy authority -in "Issued To Name" Test.cer

Issued by Name, listed above, does not appear in the Issued column in Certificate Manager. Instead, the default value is Root Agency, and I cannot find the expected certificates using the following code.

 X509Certificate2Collection certificates = null; certificates = store.Certificates.Find(X509FindType.FindByIssuerName, "Issued By Name", false);

Can anyone help here?

Note. As an alternative to Makecert (deprecated), you can use this free GUI tool to create a signature / self-signed certificate: http://www.itiverba.com/en/software/itisscg.php
