Set-OutlookSignatures v4.29.0: New Certificate & Enhanced Security

Explore Set-OutlookSignatures v4.29.0 featuring an updated code-signing certificate, new security questionnaires, and crucial robustness fixes.

2026-06-11

Set-OutlookSignatures, the Benefactor Circle add-on and the Outlook add-in are now available in version 4.29.0. This update introduces critical security continuity measures, enhanced compliance documentation, and several internal robustness fixes to keep your deployments running smoothly.

🔗Code-Signing Certificate Update (Annual Rotation)

Thanks to a generous donation from our partner ExplicIT Consulting, our Enterprise Validated (EV) code-signing certificate has been renewed.

  • Action Required: If your endpoint security software (such as AppLocker, Microsoft Defender, or CrowdStrike) is strictly locked to our previous certificate, please update your configuration rules to accept the new one.
  • Future Changes: To comply with updated industry-wide Certificate Authority (CA) guidelines, this certificate will now be rotated annually.
  • Better Appending: The update process now appends ExplicIT’s certificate instead of replacing existing ones, ensuring original certificates from Microsoft or the .NET Foundation remain fully intact.

🔗New Security Questionnaire & Resources

To streamline internal IT and compliance reviews, we have added a dedicated Security Questionnaire section to our documentation. It provides clear answers to standard security and data privacy questions.

Additionally, we’ve included links to our latest deep-dive articles:

🔗Key Robustness & Fixes

  • Assembly Resolver Update: Resolved an issue where DLL files downloaded from the web with the "Mark of the Web" restriction could not be loaded.
  • OutlookSignatureName priorization: Fixed the OutlookSignatureName behavior in the INI configuration to prevent overwriting signature names already assigned to higher-priority mailboxes.
  • Dependency Upgrades: Bumped underlying libraries including MSAL.Net, libphonenumber-csharp, and msal-browser.

🔗Get the Update

  • Set-OutlookSignatures: Download the latest version from our official Download Site.
  • Benefactor Circle Customers: Your updated add-on components and custom download links are being sent directly to you via email.
