I'm looking for the convenient signwizard in signtool.exe but cannot find it anymore in the Windows SDK 7.0.
Is it in a separate tool now or is there only the CLI left?

You can find an answer in the latest version of the MSDN

signwizard: This command is not supported.

Windows Vista and earlier: Launches the signing wizard. Only a single file can be specified for the file name command-line parameter.

As I understand, it means that the parameter no more exists in the Windows SDK 7.0.

I didn't have this comment when I last checked on MSDN. Thanks for pointing out.Occultation
Well that's quite unfortunate. It was a very useful feature. Has it been replaced by something similar?Gaiser
Microsoft... always known for removing useful features... @JamesCameron: Is this tool open source? I can't find any additional info. I personally wouldn't trust a closed source tool for this special job.Chloramphenicol
@StanE: Actually i wrote it. Its written using AutoIt and can easily be decompiled, its pretty small.Spatter
@JamesCameron I'm sorry. I didn't wanted to sound rude. Thank you for your tool! I will try it out. I have now studied the MS documentation and I saw that the command line signtool is quite easy to use. I integrated it into my tool-chain to sign my compiled applications automatically.Chloramphenicol

It is still absent in Windows SDK 7.0A RC. You can try download an older version of .Net SDK (or Windows SDK if it includes .Net SDK).
