[COLOR=#000000][FONT=Verdana]InstallShield lets you configure digital signing settings for a release. At build time, InstallShield uses the settings that you have configured to sign your installation package, your [FONT=&quot]Setup.exe[/FONT] file, and any other files in your release that meet the criteria that you have defined.[/FONT][/COLOR]

[TD=”class: AutoNumber_p_b_Bulleted”][B]Certificate Password[/B]—Note that if you configure your project to use a certificate that was imported with password protection into a store, Windows prompts for the password at build time when InstallShield is attempting to sign your project’s files. The strong key protection that Windows uses does not permit InstallShield to provide the password to the cryptographic provider.[/TD]
