ClickOnce supports SHA-256 on 4.0-targeted apps

Scope

Minor

Version Introduced

4.6

Source Analyzer Status

Planned

Change Description

Previously, a ClickOnce app with a certificate signed with SHA-256 would require .NET Framework 4.5 or later to be present, even if the app targeted 4.0. Now, .NET Framework 4.0-targeted ClickOnce apps can run on .NET Framework 4.0, even if signed with SHA-256.

  • Quirked
  • Build-time break

Recommended Action

This change removes that dependency and allows SHA-256 certificates to be used to sign ClickOnce apps that target .NET Framework 4 and earlier versions.

Affected APIs

  • Not detectable via API analysis
