Good news: One does not actually need to use a browser to create the certificate request on Windows.
I've recently used the "certreq" command to generate a CSR for my OV code signing certicate from Sectigo.
You can create an ".inf" file in a text editor with the Subject Details that should be included on the CSR, and then run the "certreq" command with certain arguments and it spits out a file containing the CSR that can be submitted to the Certificate Authority.
Sectigo has a knowledge base article detailing the steps: https://support.sectigo.com/IS_Knowledg ... 000000o7hD
