I purchased a new code signing certificate from K Software and I was able to get the CER file, but I need to convert this to a certificate in PEM format and the key in PEM format. Any suggestions?
You can google for the openssl command line to do this.
I’m quite sure that if you can’t follow these instructions you don’t have the private key.
I would expect that’s the case because the CAB now requires that the private key be stored on a dongle. CA/Browser Forum Updates Requirements for Code Signing Certificate Private Keys - Entrust Blog
