How to configure Windows to execute only .exe with certificate signing?

I want to run (on a certain computer with Windows 10) only those exe. files, who signed by certificates, which installed on the computer (it can be certificates from CA or my own test certificate).

I already tried this solution (and many others):
How does one configure Windows not to execute tampered binaries?

but none of them solved my problem.

I wrote two “HelloWorld” apps (with certificate signing and without certificate signing). But all solutions, which I tried, allow to run both apps.

There is AppLocker configuration:

<AppLockerPolicy Version="1">
  <RuleCollection Type="Appx" EnforcementMode="NotConfigured" />
  <RuleCollection Type="Dll" EnforcementMode="NotConfigured" />
  <RuleCollection Type="Exe" EnforcementMode="Enabled">

        <FilePathCondition Path="%PROGRAMFILES%\*" />
      </Conditions>
    </FilePathRule>
