SignTool: Sign Windows code with a code signing certificate
After you've created your PFX
file, you can sign your code with Microsoft SignTool.
Our code signing certificates work with the following types of Windows-based files:
EXE
DLL

Note: For CAB files, space should be allocated for the digital signature by adding the following entry to your
DDF
file before creating the cab file: Set ReservePerCabinetSize=6144.
