First up cheers for the article it's been a great help - I can't beleive there's no documentation at all on this stuff ... so frustrating!!!

So I'm trying to take it one step further and sign the setup.exe file it generates - any ideas??

I've already tried this:

X509Certificate2 cert = new X509Certificate2("somecertificate.pfx", "password"); SecurityUtilities.SignFile(cert, null, "setup.exe");

which fails with the following error:

System.InvalidOperationException and no useful detail - guess it's not intended for use with .exe files .. it works fine on a .application file though??

    • these elements exist in the vstudio .csproj file

<ManifestCertificateThumbprint>thumbprint of the cert here</ManifestCertificateThumbprint>

and

<SignManifests>true</SignManifests>

but i assume this is done with some other tool - which i can not locate at this stage ... HELP!!! :-)

thanks
