I am using Windows 7
, and want to run signed scripts from Powershell
, the security-settings
of Powershell are set to "all-signed"
, and my scripts are signed with a valid certificate
from my company. I have also added the .pfx-file
to my local certificate store (right-clicked the pfx-file and installed)
.
However, when I start a signed script, I get a message that says:
"Do you want to run software from this untrusted publisher?
File Z:\Powershell Signed Scripts\signed.ps1 is published by CN=[MyCompanyName] and is not trusted on your system. Only run scripts from
trusted publishers.
[V] Never run [D] Do not run [R] Run once [A] Always run [?] Help
(default is "D"):"
Since I want to automatically call these scripts on my systems, I would like to add my imported certificate to the trusted list on my system, so that I do not get a message anymore when I run a signed script for the first time. How can I make my certificate a trusted one?
Sounds like you need to verify that the script is signed properly and that you have the correct certificate installed in the correct certificate store.
Use the
Get-AuthenticodeSignature
cmdlet to get information about the signed script.Also review Scott's guide for signing certificates.
