Can't sign kernel drivers for Windows 11 & 10


Hi,


We recently purchased an EV certificate to sign our software kernel driver, however, when trying to load it in Windows 10 it fails with code 0x800B010C aka CERT_E_REVOKED - A certificate was explicitly revoked by its issuer.
We checked the driver with "signtool verify /v /all /pa" as suggested by our cert provider and everything is still valid.
We followed these instructions https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardware/drivers/dashboard/attestation-signing-a-kernel-driver-for-public-release

 

We've also tried contacting Microsoft's dev support by MS closed it down recently and they're not replying anymore...

 

Any help would be appreciated,

A.

    For us, the issue was that we had "Perform test-signing" ticked on the UI when uploading the driver for signing.

    Did you manage to resolve this? We are facing the same problem with a Sectigo EV certificate. Was your's from Sectigo or some other provider?
