Need Help - SetupBuilder certificate 2021 reputation (screenshots attached)
All,
I need your help.
We have just received our brand new Sectigo code-signing certificate. Valid
until 04-AUG-2024.
As you probably know, files signed with new code signing certificates need
to build reputation, you'll have to earn trust. Reputation is generated and
assigned to digital certificates as well as specific files. But digital
certificates allow data to be aggregated and assigned to a single
certificate rather than many individual programs.
We'll use this new Sectigo code-signing certificate to code-sign all
upcoming SetupBuilder 11 files. To make sure that SetupBuilder
redistributables (e.g. wupdate.exe, wucheck.exe, etc.) and system service
files are trusted, we have to build a reputation for our new certificate.
Please download and run the following small tool on as many machines as
possible. See attached screenshots.
http://www.lindersoft.com/projects/S...ation_2021.exe
Always report the file as safe, the website as safe, and keep the file!
Then *always* run it. The SetupBuilder compiled app will only display a
message and does not modify or harm your system.
Please do this on Microsoft Edge, Microsoft Internet Explorer, Google Chrome
and Firefox.
Thank you for your help!

It's not fun at to build a certificate reputation in 2021. Quite a few
steps (clicks) involved.
Thank you so much.

I screwed-up by replying to Friedrich directly but perhaps his response
is of interest so copying it here :-
Hi Simon,
I hope we'll be done in 5-7 days. From my experiences, 300-500
downloads and executions (that's important) should be enough. But not
all on one day. And it might help if you submit a signed file to
virustotal.com (I have not done it yet) and to Microsoft malware
analysis for white-listing.
My old certificate is still valid until 18-AUG-2021. That's why I
always buy a new one 3 weeks before the old one expires.
In one word: NIGHTMARE ☹

Hi Friedrich,
In practice, do you have a feel for how much we can help? Are you
waiting for 100's, 1000's, how does it work?
