Use group policy to install certificates

I have two certificates that I need to install on the computers in my domain, but I do not want the suers to do this themselves and I cant manually do this on every computer... Is there any way to automate this ? Is it for example possible to distribute these certificates using goup policies in active directory ?

If this is not possible, is there any other way to distribute these certificates ?

We need know more about the certificates, that you want install.
Are they computer unik, or do the certikate-file creates it on install?
The certifikate file is it a .exe or equal filetype, so that you just click and the certifikate is created / imported.

If yes on that , you just add the file to software install under computer in group policy-management.

If you haven't create group-policy management yet, is will be a bigger work to explain in this.
You will then have to read all the areas in MS-help about that.
Alternative version can be through certificat management

But we need to hear more about the type of certificates.

The certificates is neede to run a third party program. THey can be installed by dobbel clicking on them, and choosing where to place them (I thing if you dont choose anything they end up in the user profile...).

try if you can use certificat management.
Install the management console, install certificat on server.
Activate the certificat (can't remember where, and i am not at my server).
Then it should roll out automatic.
Otherwise you might have to make a MSI-package and use install in grouppolicy man.
