When i just double click it (as normal) i got this message:

Writing new private key to 'privkey.pem'
Enter PEM pass phrase:

and the problem is i cant type any word or numbers on to it....

Actually, you CAN type, but the curser will not move.
All is fine, that is the expected behavior.

They will not show. Thats expected. It's a security feature.

It is it.

Simply hit the keys, the letters and numbers will NOT show up, its a "hidden" input. Simply hit the Return key after a few characters and the makecert will continue and finish.
