Codesigning failure: 4294967295 about windows-installer HOT 3 OPEN

@DerKruser I received this same exit code 4294967295 but trying to sign a different file, app\node_modules\@serialport\bindings-cpp\prebuilds\android-arm\node.napi.armv7.node. See versions and full stack trace here serialport/node-serialport#2515

Did you learn anything in your investigation?

This error code is just -1 misinterpreted as a UINT

I have the same issue, and I think it's because it's trying to sign every included (native?) file, not just the main .exe.
I've tried adding an explicit exe config hoping electron-windows-installer would sign only this file but the error persists.
To me the solution seems to be an implementation of #358.

Following this tip I found out the issue I had (In Squirrel.Windows) was that the path to the certificate was invalid.
