Visual Studio 2010 project open in Visual Studio 2019 when run there is a error failed to sign
-
Hello, I have a program in Visual Basic 2010 32 bit now i want to convert it to visual Studio 2019 since the old 2010 is almost end of life. I have opened the program in Visual studio 2019 there was a message that there are conversions needed and when this was finished i clicked run There is a error --> An error occured while signing. Failed to sign bin\debug\app.publish\projectname.exe . Signtool Error: No Certificates where found that met all the given criteria. The program was written in Visual basic 2005, i imported it in VB 2008 and at last in VB 2010 . The application is running without any problem on a Old Windows XP wich is not connected to Internet so there is no issue of security since it is stand alone but the pc is getting old and need to be replaced so when i want to use the application on new Windows 10 64 bit wich will be on the internet … Is there a solution to import and use the program in 2019 without any special issues ? if not is there a way to do this on a visual studio 2012 ? 2013 2015 ??? otherwise i try with the older version of visual studio If it will be the same what can i do to get it up and running on Visual Studio 2019 what i prefer. Many thanks best regards D.

You probably need to resign the application as the certificate used is too old, wrong format or expired. Go to right click on the project and open properties, there will be a tab called signing.
