I have the same problem as @rfcdejong and I am using version 1.5.1 of Azure powershell on a Windows Server 2012 R2 box.

Removing the -provider param generates a certificate without issue.

@DavieReid, I am having the same problem as you and @rfcdejong. To generate a valid certificate, you mention the workaround of removing the -provider param. How did you remove the -provide param ? can you please provide more details ?

I edited the ServiceFabricRPHelpers.psm1 file and changed

New-SelfSignedCertificate -CertStoreLocation Cert:\CurrentUser\My -DnsName $DnsName -Provider 'Microsoft Enhanced Cryptographic Provider v1.0' | Export-PfxCertificate -FilePath $NewPfxFilePath -Password $securePassword | Out-Null

to

New-SelfSignedCertificate -CertStoreLocation Cert:\CurrentUser\My -DnsName $DnsName | Export-PfxCertificate -FilePath $NewPfxFilePath -Password $securePassword | Out-Null

I didn't use the certificate created via this method for long. I had my infrastructure department generate a certificate for me.
