Was gonna comment about the new look of the site, I don't know .. it looks really busy.... I think a more water color smooth look would fit it. :)

Still looks cool just alittle busy

Well I'm known for radically changing the site every few months, so maybe around Thanksgiving it'll change again. :laugh:

How about adding the ms keyboard layout creator to the next build of APXP, I know its mainly only used for mapping foreign languages, but it is also handy for making a copy of the english layout and then customising it for special key combinations etc.

autopatcher can automatic detect system local language settings and auto select true GUI lang file. but db file include

AutoPatcher XP UltraLite TRK.db

<apxml dbVersion="1.0.0.0" osVersion="5.1.2600.0" spVersion="1" language="Turkish (Turkey)" friendlyName="April/Mid-May '04 - Gold - UltraLite" date="200404">

line. the language tag same as 1055.lng

1055.lng

<strings version="1.0.0.0" revision="1" name="Turkish (Turkey)">

. when i start the autopatcher, program auto select 1055.lng file for GUI and but net select true database.

maybe this function is useful. autopatcher auto filter true databases or order by language.

i tried quickly glancing through the threads but 40 pages is far too much...is there a switch or way you can run it with to install everything silently? I am making an unattended XP cd and until sp2 final comes out this would be great for getting a majority of new updates installed right away...

Thanks

Doug

Just went to use tweakomatic for the first time since i last installed my system and noticed that it hits a script error, upon further investigation i noticed that the "start in" field for the shortcut is empty when it should be set to the directory where the program is,

I know we've had this problem ages ago (several builds) and had since been fixed, so has this issue just reared its ugly head once more, or is this problem only affecting me??

    • what other retro software do yall use

      By +InsaneNutter · Posted

      At work we still have a couple of people that use a version of AutoCAD LT purchased in 1994. This predates Windows 95 and works fine on versions of Windows up to XP. Its long since run in an locked down isolated XP VM, accessible via RDP. I did install LibreCAD for them, however they said it was just too different to get to grips with. In all fairness one of them is now 75 and the other is almost 60.

    • Microsoft about to radically change how often your Edge browser updates

      By testman · Posted

      Nothing is stopping you from continuing with your testing cadence. If updates are released every 2 weeks instead of 4, and you test once every 4 weeks, the exact same amount of patches will still be available for you in those 4 weeks. For example: Before 4th week - patch 1, 2, 3, 4 After 2nd week - patch 1 and 2 4th week - patch 3 and 4 Still the same amount after 4.
    • Microsoft about to radically change how often your Edge browser updates

      Everyone else has said it. I'm gonna say it - you don't know what you're talking about. I do. I have two laptops. One work, one personal. I have access to two more laptops - both personal. At home I manually update my personal laptop when I see on Neowin that there is an update - I carry on and only apply the updates when I am ready. My work one only updates when my workplace decides to send it - I carry on and only apply the updates (when they actually arrive, which is usually days after the release) when I switch off the laptop at the end of the day as usual. The two other personal laptops only get updated when I get to it which is rarely - the people who own them carry on using them until I get to it and update them. All of the browsers on all laptops are configured to restore the tabs when launched. Google and Microsoft have changed from 6 weeks to 4, and it looks like it's going to move to 2. None of these changes affect how any of these browsers on the laptops are used. Not one jot. My advice to you is stop panicking whenever you see an update. Just carry on with what you're doing. This even benefits you in a way - from your comment you sound like you don't like the changes or the frivolous new features - great - then carry on as before!
