Bug: #code-sign fails when there are multiple '.' in the filename

[MarkGoldberg]

#code-sign [Root]MyProgram.16-02-03.exe
will fail to sign, however

#code-sign [Root]MyProgram_16-02-03.exe
will work

Observed in version 10.0.4929 on Win10 10586.71

Hi Mark,

Please see the attached screenshot. It code-signed your "MyProgram.16-02-03.exe" without any problem. Tested on Windows 8, Windows 8.1 and Windows 10.

My apologies, I cannot reproduce the problem at this time.

I had encountered it a couple of weeks ago, and delayed reporting it because I was too busy.

If I find a pattern again, I'll make sure to report it promptly.

Thank you for such a quick reply.

Thank you, Mark. But it's very well possible that your protection-software flagged this specific action (false-positive).

The compiler (or SignTool) does not care whether there is one or multiple "." in a filename.
