InstallAware

I have never had anything to do with this topic. I am hoping someone could give me a little guidance as to what I need to do and why, in order for us to have our app authenticated.
The Help assumes you know what this is all about, and I can't find anything helpful from my searches of this forum.

Dear John,

did you try the IA documentation? (just press F1 in IA IDE)

By the way, below you find few links about the argument on our forum;

Hope this helps you.

Thanks Francesco.
F1 is not much and assumes you know how to get the things needed.
I will have a look at the links.

I have been playing with creating a 'self certificate' using OpenSSL, by following the instructions at: http://blog.didierstevens.com/2008/12/30/howto-make-your-own-cert-with-openssl/ (without understanding what I was doing). This created a '.p12' file, which I defined on the Authenticode Signature panel. The installer I built using this does have its 'launcher' exe file signed - I can see our company's name in the Properties.

I expected the UAC prompt I get when opening the exe file to show our company's name as the Publisher. But it still stays 'Unknown'. How do I get that to work?

Dear John,

I believe this happens because your certificate have to be installed with the machine you used to build your setup.

In addition, with the following topic an user described how to create a certificate for testing purposes (not using OpenSSL) and how to use it.
You can skip the certificate creation step ... you already have one.
