These settings are the default values that will be used on the Code Signing tab of the Build Settings dialog when new projects are started.
Code sign all new setups/uninstalls during the build process. See Authenticode Code Signing for more information.
The tool you want to use to digitally sign all new project setups. Choose from:
Use SignTool.exe to digitally sign the setup file. This tool could not be distributed, but is available in the \Bin folder of the Platform Software Development Kit (SDK). This tool is not supported on Windows NT/Me/98/95. For more information, see MSDN: SignTool (Windows).
Use SignCode.exe to digitally sign the setup file. This tool could not be distributed, and only ships with the .NET Framework SDK version 1.0 and 1.1. For more information, see MSDN: File Signing Tool (Signcode.exe).
The full path and filename of the chosen code signing tool on your system (SignTool.exe or SignCode.exe). You can click the Browse button to select the file.
The full path and filename of the certificate to use for signing all new project setups. If SignTool.exe is selected, this file must be a "Personal Information Exchange" file (*.PFX). If SignCode.exe is selected, this file must be a "Software Publisher Certificate" file (*.SPC). You can click the Browse button to select the file.
Tip: If your .PFX file is password protected, you must pass its value in the Other arguments field using the /p option. For example: /p "mypassword". For more information, see MSDN: SignTool (Windows).
The full path and filename of the "Private Key" file (*.pvk) to use for signing all new project setups. This file is only used when SignCode.exe is the selected tool. You can click the Browse button to select the file.
The URL of a timestamp DLL on the Web to use for all new setups, such as: http://timestamp.verisign.com/scripts/timstamp.dll. If you do not want to timestamp the setup file, leave this field blank.
Any additional options you would like to pass to the code signing tool. If you leave any of the code signing fields blank (except for tool location), you can pass their values as command line options. Setup Factory automatically passes the "sign" argument when "SignTool.exe" is the selected tool.
