Signtool requires CAPICOM version 2.1.0.1 or higher

Just a quick blog to document a bit of pain I hit with CAPICOM and SIGNTOOL..

I got the following error:

EXEC : SignTool error : Signtool requires CAPICOM version 2.1.0.1 or higher. Please

The solution is to download and install:

  • Platform SDK Redistributable: CAPICOM
  • Then regsvr32 on capicom.dll… eg:

    cd "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft CAPICOM 2.1.0.2 SDK\lib\X86"
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft CAPICOM 2.1.0.2 SDK\Lib\X86>REGSVR32 capicom.dll
