I recently had a certificate expire in a WinForms application that I deploy with ClickOnce. I created a new test certificate and released an update. All users that had Windows 7 got an error that told them the application failed to run. Other users who run Windows XP had no issues.

The program is using the .NET 4.0 Framework. I am programming it in Visual Studio 2010.

That article led me to believe that there shouldn't be any issues with attaching a new certificate to the program.

Details (expand)

.NET Framework 4.0

Have the signed certificate for a WinForms application expire. Create a new test certificate for the application. Update it. Try to reinstall on a Windows 7 OS.
