Hi,

Third-Party Root Certification Authorities is a subnet of Trusted Root Certification Authorities.

Trusted Root Certification Authorities includes all of the certificates in the Third-Party Root CAs store plus root certificates from your organization and Microsoft. Third-Party Root Certification Authorities only includes Trusted root certificates from CAs other than Microsoft and your organization.
