I’m trying to self sign my module with no luck. I’m using the guide from [GitHub - inductiveautomation/module-signer: A utility that signs modules for use in Ignition](https://github.com/inductiveautomation/module-signer) but I can’t get the Keystore explorer to generate a .pks file and the p7b file. What are those 🙃?
