Sign the cab files Panel
To provide a secure method of packaging and delivering applications, mobile devices support .cab files
signed with Authenticode certificates. Certificates are attached to signed .cab files as a certificate chain
when the file goes through the signing process.
To sign a .cab file for use on a device, you must have an Authenticode certificate that is already installed
on, or will be distributed to, the device on which the .cab file is to be installed.
Note: The options in the Sign the cab files panel are not mandatory but recommended for security.

Setting Description
Sign CAB To sign a .cab file, select this check box.
Digital Certificate Files (CER, SPC,
or PFX)
Corresponding Private Key File
(PVK)
.NET Compact Framework Panel
Specify the location of your digital certificate file (.cer, .spc, or .pfx) provided
by a certification authority. You can type the path to the file or use the Browse
button to navigate to the file location.
If you specify an .spc file, you must also specify a .pvk file.
If you are using an .spc file, you must also specify the location of your private
key file (.pvk) provided by a certification authority. You can type the path to the
file or use the Browse button to navigate to the file location.
Certificate Password If you would like to pass the password for the certificate file to ISCmdBld.exe
to digitally sign your application while building the release from the command
line, type the password in this box. InstallShield encrypts this password and
stores it in your project (.ise) file.
If you do not specify a password in this box but you are digitally signing the
release while building it from the command line, you will need to manually enter
the password when you are prompted each time that you build the release from
the command line.
Generate setup launcher
(Autorun.exe)
Select the Generate setup launcher (Autorun.exe) check box to include
Autorun.exe, which provides you with the ability to run installations from
storage cards. The Autorun.exe file that InstallShield generates is currently
limited to running on Pocket PC devices only.
Note: The Generate setup launcher (Autorun.exe) check box is available in
the Smart Device Setup Wizard only.
The .NET Compact Framework panel enables you to specify .NET Compact Framework information,
SQL information, or both types of information for your mobile device installation.
