Signing a QuickPatch Package
InstallShield 2025 Express Edition
Project:This information applies to QuickPatch projects.
Windows Installer 3.0 and later enables you to create patches that can be installed by non-administrators. Non-administrator QuickPatch packages can be used if strict criteria are met. For example, the base installation that the patch will update must include the certificate that will be used to sign the patch package. To learn about the other criteria that must be met, see Non-Administrator Patches.

| 1. | In the View List under Define Patch Settings, click General Information. |
| 2. | In the General Information explorer, click Build Settings. |
| 3. | Click the Digital Signature tab. |
| 4. | Select the Sign the Patch Package check box. |
| 5. | Configure the digital signature settings. |
