Visual Studio: Sign Windows drivers with a driver signing certificate

After installing your certificate and creating a PFX file, you need to sign your Windows driver with your certificate. The easiest way to do this is with Visual Studio, though there are other options.

1. Launch Visual Studio.
2. In the Solutions Browser, right-click your SLN or VCXPROJ file, and then select Properties.
   
3. In the menu on the left, click Driver Signing and then click General.
4. Complete the following fields, and then click OK:

   Field	What to do...
   Sign Mode	Select Production Sign.
   Production Certificate	Select your PFX file.
   TimeStampServer	Type http://tsa.starfieldtech.com

   
   

Now when you build your driver, it will be signed using your driver signing certificate.

Next step

• Start distributing your newly signed file to your users.
