Hey Eduardo
I understand that you want to provide the “Publisher Name” to the EXE file you have created using MATLAB Application Compiler.
The Publisher Unknown message is a Microsoft default when UAC is set to a high level. If you do not wish to see the Publisher as unknown, we recommend that lowering the UAC level to medium or low. Although this does not affect the installation process, this is done by signing the application.
Currently, there is no way to sign the app at the time of creation, but here is a few work-around. Use Windows SignTool to sign the application.
% compile
mcc('-m','-R','-startmsg', ...
'-d', outfolder, ...
'-v',source,'-o',strrep(target, '.exe', '')); % compile. mcc wants the target name without the .exe
% sign
system([ 'signtool.exe sign /f MYCERT.pfx /p MYPASS /t http://timestamp.verisign.com/scripts/timstamp.dll /v ' outfolder '/' target ], '-echo');
To know more about the SignTool application, refer: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/seccrypto/signtool
