I built my first Excel COM Addin. Everything seems to be working okay (I had Excel security set to low during the creation process).
It is now time to sign my .exe and .dlls. I see that the properties of the SetUp project has Authenticode Signature. I have completed the info in the panel and built the debug version of the setup.exe, .msi, etc.
When I run the "signtool verify" process against the debug\setup.exe, it states the .exe is not signed. What exactly was signed?
Also, regarding the .dlls, which adxloader.dll needs to be digitally signed? I tried signing the adxloader.dll in the debug folder (since that was the build), but Excel will not allow it to load since it is unsigned. So, I guess I picked the wrong one.
Thank you for your assistance.

Hi Maria.

Please check the .msi file. It should be signed.
Also, regarding the .dlls, which adxloader.dll needs to be digitally signed? I tried signing the adxloader.dll in the debug folder (since that was the build), but Excel will not allow it to load since it is unsigned. So, I guess I picked the wrong one.
You should sign the adxloader.dll file which is located in the Loader subdirectory of the add-in project. Then you need to register the project in VS and run the host application.
P.S. Note that we take up your forum requests in the order we receive them.
