The UAC prompt shows a temporary random Program Name for msi, can the correct name be displayed?

Use the /d command line argument with the required program name when executing signtool to sign the msi.

It appears that the windows installer creates a temporary copy of the msi file and assigns it a generated name before running it. If you don't use /d with signtool, you get to see the temporary filename which isn't very useful for your users.

this is an applied version of @Scott-langham's comment.

this was directly from the PostBuildEvent of a visual studio installer project - VDPROJ file
