Hi @Christoph  As per windows error look up the error says the password is incorrect, since you are sure its correct password , try to sign your setup.exe using signtool and verify it signs successfully outside of installshield. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/framework/tools/signtool-exe Are you facing the issue with only 2 dll's (Hardcodet.Wpf.TaskbarNotification.dll, CommonInstaller_dl.dll", ),if yes, then remove this dll's and then try signing and check signing works or If you selected sign files in packages option YES under signing tab, remove that option(meaning set it to NO) and verifying it sign the setup.exe Also try a sample project with your certificate and verify it works or not. and try to add this dll (Hardcodet.Wpf.TaskbarNotification.dll, CommonInstaller_dl.dll) in your sample and again try to build and verify it works or not,  You can also create a new support with active maintenance,  So Could you please navigate to Get Support > Open New Case in the top menu and open a new case to track this issue if you would like to proceed with having this issue addressed?

I found something that works. You can set the media type in the release wizard to the Web type. Then set the web type to 'Downloader - Setup.exe downloads .msi package'. On downloader options, you will have to enter something in 'URL for your package' to get the next button enabled to finish the wizard. For InstallShield Prerequisites, you most likely want to choose to 'Extract prerequisites from Setup.exe, unless you have the URL set for all setup prerequisites you are using. Then you could choose to download from the web. Then you will get a setup.exe with the prerequisites embedded in it and an MSI with the CAB/product files streamed into it that you can run without the Setup.exe, assuming the prerequisites are already installed. ...

Create your new prerequisite file. For items like the VS2015 redist, you can just make a copy of the existing one and update the conditions to check for eligibility. 3. Add the newly created prerequisite to your project. Thanks for the info... I already did it like that. Off course you cannot play that short to the ball for every new version of redistributable that comes out 😉 But... what is actually the redistributable downloader for? It seems not to be updated for a long time? Just wondering... ... View more

It means we have tested our run-time support for the new operating system, and typically it also means we have made it easy to specify whether your product supports the new operating system. However nothing InstallShield does can ensure your application will or will not work on a different version of Windows than you have verified. The problems are rare for most applications, as Microsoft works hard to ensure compatibility, but they do occur. ... View more
