I am moving from a 32 bit to 64 bit windows 7 computer. What is the process
of transferring the Comodo certificate to the new computer.
Do I follow the original instructions when I purchased it, or some other
process.


Thanks

Gary,

The experts should reply soon, but to give you a head start...

You should have your certicate in a "portable format" -

A single PFX file OR SPC and PVK files - then it's just a matter of copying
those files to ANY computer for code signing purposes (and, of course,
using the password that is associated).

IF your certificate is stored in a particular Browser format, please state
which browser, and someone can offer some help.

Setup Tools such as Lindersoft SetupBuilder can use signtool.exe or
signcode.exe - These tools digitally sign files, verifies signatures in
files, or time stamps files.

Signtool.exe - Use a certificate in a PFX format.

Signcode.exe - Use a certificate in spc and pvk file format.

Thats all I've done when I have moved my certs onto different VM's.
