@@cybersamurai99 Thanks again, I have one more question, when signing the file with the certificate it doesn't apply a signing time, how can I add this?

@@TripalYT You can right click and check the properties>Digital Signatures. If its not there I believe it needs to be signed with a certificate trusted by a CA. I will make time to upload an update version of the tutorial and Ill cover that.

Thanks for the video. Great stuff!! If someone modifies the signed script, it still runs, right? If so, then what's the actual value of signing? Just trying to understand it a little more before i start implementing it.

Simple answer is NO! - If the signed script is modified just a little bit the whole hash would turn out to be different. At the moment of signing, the certificate takes all the contents of your script and turns it into a HASH VALUE (according to the settings you specified when creating the certificate). A signature block is then created and added to your script. Now when you run the script with the signature, the computer will then take the HASH VALUE and check if it matches with your signature, if it does it runs, if it does not it will not run. So if you change the script even my adding a sigle "." the hash would turn out to be different and the script would not run anymore.

Great Thanks. Please use a bigger font.

Its on docs.microsoft search for New-SelfSignedCertificate and check at the bottom of the page. I have also place a link into the video description.

Can you sign a Python script or executable with this PowerShell method?

I have not yet tested it but I think it would work. Have you tried it?

I followed these instructions but the certificate was not created in the Trusted Root Certification Authorities Store. How do I remove the cert that was created and how make another one in the right location? I think in your setup (at the start of the video) there were some steps omitted (you stated that the directory was were your certs were stored...) I am total novice in these matters...

Its a total of two steps, you first create the Cert, then you need to install on the Trusted Root Certificate Store, either for the User or for the Machine. Following the video you will create a certificate on this location as shown on 4:40 C:\Users\Your_User_Account\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\SystemCertificates\My You can remove the certificate that was created on this location by simply deleting it. Then you need to install the certificate as shown from 6:00, when looking for the certificate make sure to select (* All files) or the thumbprint for the certificate will not show. Hope that helps.

I follow the guide but the certificate key has no password. How to add a password to it without creating a new one?

If I want to remove the certificate, what should I do?

You should be able to remove the certificates from the AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\SystemCertificates folder You can also try removing them by navigating to the Cert:/ driver and using the option rm "certificate_thumbprint"
