Signing merge modules with certificate

I can see, that it is possible to sign a merge module with a certificate. If that certificate would be the same as the one used for the installer, is it nescesary to sign the merge module too? Or would that either have no effect or even be harmful in some way?

Re: Signing merge modules with certificate

Hello,

In this specific case, I think it depends on whether the merge module is proprietary to you or is some 3rd party merge module.

If it is proprietary to you, I think signing it would be a good ideea.

However, if it is not, then it might already be signed by someone else, in which case resigning it might not be the best ideea.

Hope this helps!

Best regards,
