I'm not sure if you're still having this problem, but you might want to check out the work done on electron-forge here. You should also check that the Windows 10 SDK is installed.

@jacobq Thanks. Dunno if this is actually still a valid issue - gonna close it for now.

Same issue. It stems from the fact that the makecert.exe cannot be found in the recommended directory.

Maybe update the instructions to reflect the fact that makecert.exe resides in C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\bin\<Windows 10 SDK version number>\x64 ?

That's only true if you didn't install it anywhere else ;) For me it's E:\WindosSDK\ Anyhow, it sure should be mentioned that the sdk binaries must be in the path.
