To sign the bundle and bundle engine you need to add the following to your .wixproj: Add SignOutputtrue/SignOutput to a PropertyGroup Implement the targets like this:     Target Name=SignBundleEngine         SignFile TimestampUrl=... CertificateThumbprint=... SigningTarget=@(SignBundleEngine) /

Signing only the bundle would prove that it came from your organisation and hadn't been tampered with - would that be enough? When run it would unpack the unsigned burn engine and the unsigned MSIs. Does anyone know if that would show the user a warning (or multiple warnings?) Bob: would it be

Thanks Rob, a blog post would be great! As I am not that familiar with modifying the MSBuild sequence, do I just specify something like Target Name=Signing SignTargetPath=PathToMyExe/ in my wixproj? I guess I should probably sign all my MSI's with a digital certificate using the signtool before

Easiest way: override the MSBuild SignXxx targets defined in wix2010.targets with your own targets. I really need to get the blog post up about this. sigh/ On Tue, Jan 10, 2012 at 6:50 PM, Sunny Li sunnie...@gmail.com wrote: Hi there, How do you sign the burn bootstrapper? Do you simply sign
