How to Generate Keystore for Google Play Distribution?

Hi guys,

Does anybody knows how to overcome a very annoying error that arises when trying to generate a keystore for Google play distribution?

The method I’m following is in Unreal documentation (obviously not complete) Signing Projects for Release | Unreal Engine Documentation

And the error message I’m getting when everything is done is below:

The JKS keystore uses a proprietary format. It is recommended to migrate to PKCS12 which is an industry standard format using “keytool -importkeystore -srckeystore ExampleKey.keystore -destkeystore ExampleKey.keystore -deststoretype pkcs12”.

If anyone knows that, it would be greatly appreciated

Thanks,
S
