View Full Version : Uninstall not being signed?

Greetings, Friedrich!

I'm updating an old project, and am finding that the uninstall object isn't
being signed.

Could that be because I'm using a compiler variable in the installer name?

Any other ideas where I could look?

The compiler output (pics attached) doesn't show any issue? The installer
itself gets signed fine.

Thanks for any insight.

Not a compiler variable issue. I tried it with a hard-coded name.

Another project I built tonight has the same issue - installer is signed but
uninstaller is not.

Hi Jane,

Unfortunately, this is caused by the new Win8.1 compatible loader :-( It
will be "fixed" in the upcoming SetupBuilder 8.1.

CHANGE : [SB#3-08281] IDE: Possible uninstaller code-signing issue for
installation executables of a certain size and/or PE Header
structure. The resulting code-signed uninstall had an invalid
or missing signature.

See private email. I'll send a SBUTIL.DLL (v8.1) to work around this issue.

Thanks, Friedrich! Works perfectly. I rebuilt both projects and both
uninstallers are signed.

And here I thought I was losing my mind. (And since I misplaced it in 1969,
I couldn't figure out what more there was to lose <g>)
