It is possible to implement your own signing logic if you have time and patience to build a tool using c# and standard encryption libraries included with .Net framework.

If this is intended for build process usage, old version of VS had a tool called signtool.exe. Check out this documentation - https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/framework/tools/signtool-exe

You will have to obtain it from older distribution. Please keep in mind that this does not stop reading program from proceeding without checking for digital certificate.

Otherwise, third parties including Microsoft and Verisign do provide their own signing tools. Please go through this article for detailed steps - https://www.thegeekstuff.com/2010/03/microsoft-digital-signatures/
