Can the uninstaller be signed with something oher than SignTool?

[Scott Zeller]

I'm signing the installer package external to Inno Setup, and this works fine. Is there a way to do this for the uninstaller? Currently it is triggering UAC and has publisher Unknown.

I haven't verified this myself, but there have been reports that this is
less effective in Inno 6 than in Inno 5, because more properties of your
App (such as versions) are included in the uninstaller, which means you
can't just sign once manually and use it for everything.

It really works best when you fully integrate the signing tool. Note
that this doesn't have to be Microsoft's "signtool"; it can be any app
or script that will apply the proper signature. This also lets you sign
the app itself during the compile.

Thanks all. For some reason I didn't find the help topic, so I appreciate the link.
