.net - 如何在 .NET ClickOnce 应用程序中设置 'Publisher'

Question

我正在发布 .NET ClickOnce 应用程序，当用户安装它时，发布者被设置为未知发布者(见下文)。

我需要做什么才能更改此字段？我需要有效的 SSL 证书吗？

看看this article on the subject :

• A certificate generated using the MakeCert.exe utility is commonly called a "self-cert" or a "test cert". This kind of certificate works much the same way that a .snk file works in the .NET Framework: it consists solely of a public/private cryptographic key pair, and contains no verifiable information about the publisher. You can use self-certs to deploy ClickOnce applications with high trust on an intranet; however, when these applications run on a client computer, ClickOnce will identify them as coming from an "Unknown Publisher." By default, ClickOnce applications signed with self-certs and deployed over the Internet cannot utilize Trusted Application Deployment.

• By contrast, if you receive a certificate from a CA—such as a certificate vendor, or a department within your enterprise—the certificate offers more security for your users. It not only identifies the publisher of the signed software, but it verifies that identity by checking with the CA that signed it. If the CA is not the root authority, Authenticode will also "chain" back to the root authority to verify that the CA is authorized to issue certificates. For greater security, you should use a certificate issued by a CA whenever possible.
