Article A customer received the following error when attempting to create a RSACryptoServiceProvider from the privatekey already in the code:

CryptographicException: The system cannot find the file specified.
System.Security.Cryptography.Utils.CreateProvHandle(CspParameters parameters, Boolean randomKeyContainer) +7712542 System.Security.Cryptography.RSACryptoServiceProvider.ImportParameters(RSAParameters parameters) +258 System.Security.Cryptography.RSA.FromXmlString(String xmlString) +470
SignXml.SignXml.Page_Load(Object sender, EventArgs e) +417
