To use Authenticode, a set of client files, publishing tools, and a signing DLL are required.
Client files are installed in the \WinNT\System32 directory on Microsoft(r) Windows NT(r), or in the \Windows\System directory on Microsoft Windows(r) 95, and include the following:
- Wintrust.dll
- Softpub.dll
- Mssip32.dll
- Vsrevoke.dll
- Crypt32.dll
Publishing tools and the signing DLL are installed in the \INetSDK\Bin directory and include the following:
- MakeCert.exe (creates an X.509 certificate for testing purposes only)
- Cert2SPC.exe (creates an SPC for testing purposes only)
- SignCode.exe (signs and timestamps a file)
- ChkTrust.exe (checks the validity of the file)
- MakeCTL.exe (creates a certificate trust list)
- CertMgr.exe (manages certificates, CTLs, and CRLs)
- SetReg.exe (sets registry keys controlling certificate verification)
- Signer.dll (performs signing)
