VB.NET

Dim success As Boolean = False

' This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
' See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

' You can verify a signed DLL or EXE.
Dim path As String = "c:/someDir/something.dll"

Dim codeSign As New Chilkat.CodeSign

' If successful, the signature is removed from the EXE or DLL file.
success = codeSign.RemoveSignature(path)
If (success = False) Then
    Debug.WriteLine(codeSign.LastErrorText)
End If

Debug.WriteLine("success: " & success)
