-   
+ When disposing <xref:System.Security.Cryptography.X509Certificates.X509Chain>, the certificates in <xref:System.Security.Cryptography.X509Certificates.X509Chain.ChainElements> are not disposed. You should dispose of the certificates in this collection when the certificate instances are no longer needed.
   
 ## Examples  
  The following code example opens the current user's personal certificate store, allows you to select a certificate, then writes certificate and certificate chain information to the console. The output depends on the certificate you select.
