WinRAR and software publisher
« on: September 05, 2013, 01:11 PM »
Hi,

I wonder if any of you have used WinRAR to create an installer and add your company or your name as its publisher.  Or, how to add your company or your name as its publisher to an exe installer?

Googling has not yielded an satisfactory answer.

Thanks.

For as far code-signing goes (I assume you mean you want your companies name to show up in UAC prompts and the sort), you need to pay a fair price for it. They're like SSL certificates, except waaay pricier.

It really sucks; I tried looking in the past to see if I could get one of these on the cheap, but it wasn't meant to be.
