sorry, i forgot to mention that you will be adding this, 3072, value to your existing CA Type ( which i believe for you will be Type 2 - if your EXE is in the Binary Table stream )

The other EXE type options are: Type 18 - if it is an EXE instaled with the project,  Type 34 - EXE File with command-line string plus directory table path, or Type 50 - EXE with property based path )...
