Is it possible to understand whether a certificate in Windows cert store imported as "Enable Strong Private Key" protection in .NET?

A: 

It looks like x509certificate2 doesn't directly expose this, so unless there is something in its Extensions property there is no direct support in .NET.

(I don't have a certificate with "Enable Strong Private Key" to check directly.)

I couldn't find any distinguish value in Extensions. You can import any cert again and choose Strong Key if you want to try.
