## Mandatory SSL
This script must be used with a certificate in order to work so, you need to generate one:
## Open Powershell as admin and enter the command below
```
$cert = New-SelfSignedCertificate -Subject "localhost" -TextExtension @("2.5.29.17={text}DNS=localhost&IPAddress=127.0.0.1") -CertStoreLocation cert:\LocalMachine\My
$pwd = ConvertTo-SecureString -String "httpfileserver" -Force -AsPlainText
Export-PfxCertificate -Cert $cert -FilePath $env:userprofile\downloads\cert.pfx -Password $pwd
```
## Convert the .pfx file to a .pem extension using 
```
openssl pkcs12 -in cert.pfx -out cert.pem -nodes
```
After converting the certificate move it to the same directory as the script then run
```
python https-file-server.py
```
