Hi,

i am looking for a Tool to generate non-expireing certificates for clickonce deployment of our applications. All i found so far is some Microsoft command line tool, which explicitly states that the certificates it generates are only for "test" purposes.

Thanks.

Hi Greg,

i have now tried this at home. I installed VC++ Express and downloaded the Renewcert Project from the URL you linked. i then changed the code to add 50 years instead of 5 and compiled it.

It really works BigGrin Made a little test c# solution and it now has a certificate expiring on the 13.01.2059 BigGrin

Many thanks for that information !!

Cool! This is a must have when using ClickOnce. Your smart to figure this out early instead of suddenly getting a ton of support calls because the app won't install anymore! Pinch

worst case scenario:
