Next you have to either install the certificate or make it into a PFX file, which includes both halves of the key. If you use a utility like MakeCert.exe (which is included in the Windows Platform SDK), you can produce a certificate in a CER file you’ll need to use the Cert2spc.exe utility (also in the SDK) to convert that to an SPC/PVK file pair. This will often come in two parts: An SPC file, which is the Software Publishing Certificate, and a PVK file, which is the corresponding private key. If you purchase one, you’ll be looking for a “Class III” digital certificate of the “Microsoft Authenticode” variety. First you’ll need a code-signing certificate.
