We have an older C# / Winforms application which is updated using the ClickOnce Installer. The application is signed via a trusted safenet token certificate from Symantec (so the app is recognised as being developed by a trusted publisher). Since the company changed its name and the old token / certificate now expired, I recently got a new one - but with the new company (name) on it. Now the Clickonce installer won't update due to the dreaded identity not matching error. Question is - is there a way to update it anyway somehow? Both certificates are trusted developer certificates, but issued to another company. Techniques from other questions like extending the certificates and such do not apply in this case.
