Answer 1

SignTool is available as part of the Windows SDK (which comes with Visual Studio Community 2015). Make sure to select the "ClickOnce Publishing Tools" from the feature list during the installation of Visual Studio 2015 to get the SignTool.

Once Visual Studio is installed you can run the signtool command from the Visual Studio Command Prompt.

By default (on Windows 10) the SignTool will be installed in:

• C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\bin\x86\signtool.exe
