itsnotabigtruck Posted December 8, 2003 Share Posted December 8, 2003 I might work on an uninstaller when I have time to burn. :) @FlishFun & Raptor: Why don't you add a uninstallBatch parameter for each item? Also, will you add mutuallyExclusive and depends parameters as I suggested? Thanks for the info. :D Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/114897-autopatcher-december-update-wishlist/page/25/#findComment-1446921 Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElectricDemon Posted December 8, 2003 Share Posted December 8, 2003 Better yet, since I can't remember the link (and the one on the main site is broken), I'll just attatch it. :) Please, if anyone can figure it out, let me know.And no, not yet... still compiling (very close to done, been at it most of today). hmm...anyone good with a hex editor? probably something can be edited on the installer to make it auto-progress through the dialogue boxes. I remember someone did that with the DX9b installer on the M S F N site, to auto except the eula. Just an idea, I'm clueless when it comes to hex-editing the .exe the only other way would be to re-package the viewer, i.e. install it somewhere, then copy the files,and reg entries into a custom installer and have that silently installing with the autopatcher.

ElectricDemon Posted December 8, 2003 Share Posted December 8, 2003 I don't know exactly how useful this is, for the DAMN viewer, but when you uninstall, it tells you where the registry keys are, and where the files are kept I've attached the installed files, and the reg keys if you want them. All that is needed is a batch file to extract the files, and run the .reg keys in the REG KEYS folder I uninstalled DAMN on my machine, unzipped this, ran the .reg keys and all seems to be working, even the uninstaller still works if people decide to opt out. Hope this helps you guys. Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/114897-autopatcher-december-update-wishlist/page/25/#findComment-1450048 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I may check into that one too. @extreme_madness - Doesn't work unless you have Windows installed on your "C" drive.

SentientPC Posted December 9, 2003 Share Posted December 9, 2003 (edited) does the last one work in WMP9? Not sure about that Raptor :huh: But on a side note, check out the site at http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_tweaks.htm. ...at quick glance, it appears they have 2 columns of 303 WinXP tweaks, installed by either .exe, .vbs or .reg. :o :D Edited December 9, 2003 by SentientPC Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/114897-autopatcher-december-update-wishlist/page/25/#findComment-1451503 Share on other sites More sharing options...
