Oh wow! Super detailed guide. Thanks for that.

When I get time I'll install a fresh copy of Windows onto a VM so I can go through the full setup of what is needed to be installed so we can use this guide but cut it down a bit (eg. Shouldn't need to sign the app if building in debug mode)

I tried in Debug mode and when I went to install it, it gave an error it never had a signed certificate.
