Re: Add Publisher Name to Published VS2005 Project



If you are able to select it in VS, then it seems to be fine.

In the case of (test) makecert certificate you also have to install the certificate int the client's trusted root CA folder (in the certificate store).

names.

I have created the certificate, imported it into the trusted Root,
selected the cert from the store/from file button, and then
re-published. This gives the same result - 'Unknown Publisher' from
the client's perspective. One step of yours that I am missing is
assigning the intended purpose of "Code Signing" - how is that done
with makecert.exe?

Thanks,
