Custom Column with Digital Signature details

[dsl101]

Hi,

New to XY, and intrigued by the possibilities with Custom Columns. One thing I'm doing a lot at the moment is checking Digital Signatures on exe, dll, etc. files. Currently this is a right-click→Properties, switch tab, check timestamp, close dialog. Pretty slow and dull.

I wondered if it's possible to get that detail with a script? I couldn't see anything in the columns or script reference about accessing this file property—maybe it's a built-in windows thing not accessible externally?

I imagine the signtool command could be coerced into this, but it's _slow_, and the property is read by the File Properties tab pretty instantly.

Many thanks,

David

There is sigcheck (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sysint ... s/sigcheck) which lists everything ~instantly and should be usable inside a custom column without effort...

Hi,

currently not possible in a XYplorer native way. A quick research tells me: Theoretically it could be done, but it's not totally trivial.

But maybe there are ways using 3rd party tools like AHK or PowerShell, not sure. (ah, highend just confirmed that above)

There are powershell comandlets for this as well but it's too much overhead instead of using sigcheck...

Code: Select all

    $tool = "D:\Tools\@Command Line Tools\Sigcheck\sigcheck.exe";
    $output = runret(lax("$tool" -accepteula -nobanner "<cc_item>"));
    $date   = regexmatches($output, "signing date:.+?(?=\r?\n|$)");
    if ($date) { return trim(gettoken($date, 2, ":", , 2), <tab>); }
