Have you tried the command line method?
SSH to the host as root and then invoke the below command
/sbin/generate-certificates
You will have to restart a few services accordingly. More details can be found [here].
Let me know if this helps.

Yes following the same,
Right click on the vCenter -- configure -- certificates -- renew, its not changing the Valid to Date, showing the same date as existing.

Hello @VPXA
If I understood your problem correctly, you are following a KB and trying to renew ESXi Host's self signed cert and it is not renewing the date.
May I know which KB are you following?
Also, if the ESXi host is already added to vCenter Server, the certificate can be easily renewed by right-clicking the ESXi Host in Inventory & then click on Certificates & then select Renew Certificate
