Verify Authenticode Signature of EXE or DLL
See more Code Signing Examples
Demonstrates how to verify an Authenticode signed EXE or DLL.Note: Chilkat's code signing class was added in v9.5.0.97

// 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

// passed in the last argument.
