Many users ask if they can skip the activation or reuse old keys:
- Old CSR: While it may be technically possible on some servers, we highly recommend generating a new CSR for each renewal to maintain maximum security.
- Activation: You cannot avoid the activation process. A renewal is technically the issuance of a brand-new certificate. Therefore, you must provide a CSR and complete the validation (DCV) again to prove you still control the domain .
