      @Ekopalypse The author himself will add a signature to the next build project … did I understand you correctly?

        Yes, if you refer to the release build.
        Debug builds will never have such a signature to allow code contributors to easily test there changes/modifications. That’s my understanding.

        Edit: With release build I mean the binaries delivered by either the installation or a portable zip.

                I found this commit and it looks like that this is the area
                where one would need to hack around to create its own key but as said, I don’t really know how this certificates stuff work, yet.

                  Interesting things, there is a GPG public key
                  https://github.com/notepad-plus-plus/notepad-plus-plus/blob/master/nppGpgPub.asc
                  But after building projects SciLexer.dll and notepad ++.exe

                  When starting notepad ++.exe an error appears
                  Authenticode check failed: signing certificate or hash is not recognized

                  Where is the truth hiding?

                    Maybe I have some components missing in Visual Studio 2017?

                    {
                    	"version": "1.0",
                    	"components": [
                    		"Microsoft.VisualStudio.Workload.NativeDesktop",
                    		"microsoft.visualstudio.component.vc.cmake.project",
                    		"microsoft.visualstudio.componentgroup.nativedesktop.win81",
                    		"microsoft.visualstudio.componentgroup.nativedesktop.winxp",
                    		"microsoft.visualstudio.component.vc.atlmfc",
                    		"microsoft.visualstudio.component.windows10sdk.10586",
                    		"microsoft.visualstudio.component.vc.140"
                    	]
                    }

                      I don’t think that you are missing something regarding the certification process.
                      It is expected that you cannot build a release version and use it with a non-signed scintilla dll.
                      Only debug builds can be used in this manner unless you change the code in the release build.

                      The way it works, as far as I understand, is like this.

                      You build a release version of scintilla.
                      You sign the scintilla dll with your private key.
                      You put the public key, which is one result from signing the dll, into notepad++ and build the release version.
                      Now on startup, I assume, it won’t report that error.

                      The exact details on how to do it, I haven’t figured out yet.
                      There are still too many open questions for me about the whole PKI thinggy.

                        I did not understand where to put this key before building the project.

                          https://github.com/notepad-plus-plus/notepad-plus-plus/blob/master/README.md
                          In the README file, I cannot understand what exactly needs to be done with this public key.
