The ExeMeta object is retrieved from the Metadata.exe or Metadata.exe_text properties. It provides access to metadata relating to executable (program) files.

Property Name Return Type Description

<column keyword>

variant

Returns the value of the specified column, as listed in the Programs section of the Keywords for Columns page.

Note that Signature (Authenticode) metadata is only present if the object was created in a context where the data was already known. (E.g. The Item object came from a file display which already had the corresponding columns turned on and populated.) In most cases, it is better to obtain that data via FSUtil.GetSignature.
