digital signing of add-in express dlls

I may be missed something but sounds like adxloader dlls are not digitally signed. Are you applying the code signing for all the add-in express dlls including adxloader? my concern is that this should be digitally signed before deployment to make add-in trusted. Can you please confirm?

Hello Rao,

It is expected that you digitally sign adxloader.dll and adxloader64.dll yourself.

Is there any specific reason that you are not digitally signing adxloader.dll and adxloader64.dll and leaving it to us? and what about the other dlls like "AddinExpress.MSO.2005" & AddinExpress.OL.2005.dll that we deploy?

Hello Rao,

A COM add-in includes loader DLLs and a managed assembly (your assembly) that uses Add-in Express assemblies. It is the loader DLL which is specified in the registry; Office loads the DLL to load your add-in. If YOU sign loader DLLs, Office will show YOU as the add-in publisher.
