Try automating signing a windows driver. It's all GUI.

At least the mac code signing tools are command-line.

No, it's one well documented command line tool called signtool. I've used it quite extensively and it has never failed me in an unexpected way.

I can't report much good about the Apple signing side. In the end we put that into a VM because different xcode versions will produce vastly different signatures for no obvious reason, and the older ones were more widely compatible.

Isn't signing on windows done with signtool? https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/seccrypto/sig...
