-# This workflow uses actions that are not certified by GitHub.
-# They are provided by a third-party and are governed by
-# separate terms of service, privacy policy, and support
-# documentation.
-
-# This workflow will build, test, sign and package a WPF or Windows Forms desktop application
-# built on .NET Core.
-# To learn how to migrate your existing application to .NET Core,
-# refer to https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/desktop-wpf/migration/convert-project-from-net-framework
-#
-# To configure this workflow:
-#
-# 1. Configure environment variables
-# GitHub sets default environment variables for every workflow run.
-# Replace the variables relative to your project in the "env" section below.
-#
-# 2. Signing
-# Generate a signing certificate in the Windows Application
-# Packaging Project or add an existing signing certificate to the project.
-# Next, use PowerShell to encode the .pfx file using Base64 encoding
-# by running the following Powershell script to generate the output string:
-#
-# $pfx_cert = Get-Content '.\SigningCertificate.pfx' -Encoding Byte
-# [System.Convert]::ToBase64String($pfx_cert) | Out-File 'SigningCertificate_Encoded.txt'
-#
-# Open the output file, SigningCertificate_Encoded.txt, and copy the
-# string inside. Then, add the string to the repo as a GitHub secret
-# and name it "Base64_Encoded_Pfx."
-# For more information on how to configure your signing certificate for
-# this workflow, refer to https://github.com/microsoft/github-actions-for-desktop-apps#signing
-#
-# Finally, add the signing certificate password to the repo as a secret and name it "Pfx_Key".
-# See "Build the Windows Application Packaging project" below to see how the secret is used.
