Current AutoPatcher XP Information and Download


Recommended Posts

I apologize for the inconvenient, my FTP is down at the moment.

I'm not at home. Ive been working on it remotely, but I cant seem to find my drive now. :angry:

I will be leaving work in 30 mins, as soon as I get home, I will work on it so I can have it up.

edit: Managed to bring drive up, FTP is up and running, if you notice any problem, please wait until I get home so I can work on it. Have fun :D

btw: Flish and Raptor. Once again you have made neowin members happy with the latest APXP release. :D

Before I forget, I also wanted to mention that the APXP site looks great, great work.

To those of you trying to login 2x with the same IP, you wont be able to. I gotta allow other people to get the file.

And if you try to connect 3 times within 30 secs, you will automatically be banned, you dont want that, do you?

The banned will be automatically removed.

Thanks

Blah, well I've tried for quite some time now to make some torrents for you guys, but they never seem to work right.. had someone that I know has done in the past try for me, and still no dice... I guess I'm a failure... I'll keep trying unless someone else gets one going then I"ll just seed. Cya later everyone.

I'm not sure whether I should post it here, but I've got 2 questions.

1) Why are some updates removed from autopatcherXP? Are the patches included in the new updates?

I.E. from the change log:

"** Deleted Following Items:

-- Q822603_WXP_SP2_x86_ENU.exe

-- WindowsXP-KB833998-x86-ENU.EXE

..."

2) In Pre-SP2 Critical list (of lastest April release) there are the boxes "Blaster removal patch" and the "Sasser removal patch". Will these 2 only "patch-up" my system once when I install them and won't create any Start menu, Uninstall menu entries? (I mean they are only patches like the updates or go as separate tools/programs, like the "Mydoom/doomjuice removal tool"?)

1) files included in older patches are often updated in newer patches, so including the older patches would be redundant and unnecessary.

2) those two are just removal tools. they don't install, they only run and scan for the two viruses (and remove them if necessary.)

So they are tools as well? They don't block those viruses/trojans after I run them once and only check the comp at the time of execution?

those specific files don't block the virus(es) from infecting you in the future, but later in the AP installation the patches that DO protect you are installed.

Torrent files for Full, Update and Lite are created.

I dont have UltraLite, as soon as I get the file I will create a torrent file for it, unless someone wants to create it (I wont complaint) :p

I'm seeding all three files at the moment, plus hosting it on my server.

Whoever wants to help seeding, will be welcome :D

    • Along with that and very unfortunate for Linux, the AI boom/tariffs/global supply chain instability really destroyed any chances of it getting a decent chunk of market share. By all accounts, if a Steam Deck was still available for $399 (with tons of alternatives releasing at $500-$800 - instead of $1500+ now) and the Steam Machine was out there for $499, I think a lot of people WOULD have been willing to try SteamOS and switch away from Windows. But yeah, with the crazy jacked up prices now, people have to make safe bets with their money.
    • Neowin hasn't been covering the Ladybird browser but it has been posted about on a lot of tech and Linux/open source sites. I have been following the effort myself for almost a year now. Cloudflare and Proton are among their sponsors. You can read the why here--> https://ladybird.org/#about
    • That's really the user's problem, not the developers. It's not like the Windows 10 EOL was a surprise. Once a product goes out of support, you have to understand YOU are owning the risk of running it - the rest of the world will move on, maybe you'll be OK, maybe you'll be OK for a while, maybe you'll have an issue.... But you can't expect devs to write or certify software for dead operating systems.
    • Not mentioned in this blog post is that Linux has now dropped for 2 months in a row. At a hight of 5.33% in March, then 4.52% in April and now 3.99% in May. I suspect the end of Windows 10 got a bunch of people to try Linux, fueled by all the Microsoft hate, and rabid social media push of that....and now they are going back to Windows 11 because of the normal Linux issues. The vast majority of PC gamers want to use their computers to game and not trouble shoot why a game wont work, or half work.
    • do these change.org petitions ever do anything besides give people a place to complain?
