Sign the VSIX package

File on the Microsoft VS Store doesn't include VSIX file and the packaged extension you can get in VS is not signed.

Hi @sharpninja , thanks for opening the issue and sorry for my late replay.

File on the Microsoft VS Store doesn't include VSIX file

This part I didn't quite understand. Can you maybe explain it in more detail? The file which I get when clicking on the Download button on the Sharpen's VS Marketplace page is a valid VSIX file.

the packaged extension you can get in VS is not signed

You are right. This for sure does not give the best impression. I'll take a look at how to obtain the certificate and sign the extension.

I would be grateful if you can provide more input on the first point.

Since there was no feedback on the first part of the reported issue (File on the Microsoft VS Store doesn't include VSIX file) and I cannot reproduce it, I'll consider only the second part (signing) as open and rename the issue accordingly.
