Did you follow these steps?

But if you can't import the certificate on this specific PC (where it
reports that the password is incorrect) then unfortunately, the password
*is* incorrect. The import feature and the signtool utility make use of the
very same components.

It's always one of the following if you have a valid certificate in form of
..PFX:

1. Password incorrect.

2. Timestamp server(s) not available or not accessible.

3. Not all required signtool or OS compatible components installed.

4. Capicom component not installed or unregistered.

Just for fun, remove signtool and try IDE -> Help | Get Microsoft Signtool.
But the import process reports an incorrect password, so this might not help
at all.
