This action signs .nupkg files and files that are supported by signtool.exe with a code signing certificate. This action only works on Windows build agents, and that means it will only run on windows-2019, windows-2022 or windows-latest.

Required The base64 encoded certificate.

This can created by converting your pfx file to a base64 encoded string with the following command

certutil -encode .\ssCertInfo.pfx .\ssCertInfo.base64.txt

Once you run the command, you will need to ensure that the data is saved in your secret as seen here
