It should come up as unsigned in the UAC prompt, if you have that disabled you won't see anything. You can usually still install it.

When I view the properties of the file in Explorer it shows the certificate correctly. So far so good. Then I modified the MSI file in a binary editor (changed one byte). Now when I run the signtool I get an error that the verification failed. So far so good. But when I view the file properties I still see the certificate. I was able to run the MSI and install it. I was expecting Explorer to detect the file as corrupted and for the MSI to fail to install. What am I missing? Is there an extra step during the WiX pipeline that I need to do, or were my expectations wrong that a file modification will be caught by Windows?
