Cant disable properly a certificate for re-create a new certificate?

The deletion of your directory /etc/letsencrypt has no effect on already issued certificates.

Also, revocation of already issued certificates has no effect on the rate limit of 5 certificates per domain per sliding window of 7 days. (But without a backup of your /etc/letsencrypt you can't even revoke the certificate )

You should test and/or experiment with the --staging or --test-cert switch of the official Let's Encrypt client. It generates fake certificates, but has less strict rate limits. When you're satisfied with all the options of the client, you can drop the --test-cert switch, so it generates a good certificate.

So i cant remove a certificate if already generated and i remove my folder /etc/letsencrypt/
