Using a custom digital signature causes the UAC window to display incorrect product name

I changed the digital signature from Built-in to Custom, the signature tool is signtool.exe, and the command line parameter is sign /a /ac "C:\certificate\DigiCert-G4-to-HAEVRCA-CodeSigningCrossCert.crt" /tr http: //timestamp.digicert.com /td sha256 /fd sha256.

After this modification, build the installation package and install it, and then uninstall the software through the control panel. In the UAC window that pops up, the icon and software name are incorrect, please refer to the following screenshot:

I found the cause of the problem, need to add the /d parameter to the command line.
The issue has been resolved and you do not need to investigate the issue again. excuse me.
