No, I've tried that. I even popped in ERD Commander to see if i can change the password and still no luck.

It's not a huge deal, I'm okay with reinstalling XP if I need to... but this is a weird problem.

If it was caused by a patch included in AutoPatcher, it truely is weird.

I had to take my mirror off apache...it was absolutely dead to normal web traffic.

you're welcome to use these ftp links if you like:

ftp://cpugeniusmv.is-a-geek.org/apxp/Auto...an2005_Full.exe

I was able to get back into my account using "Offline NT Password & Registry Editor" by blanking the password.

My guess was it could have been the User Accounts 2 module maybe? I don't know because the password was working just fine before I installed autopatcher.

user accounts 2 just adds a control panel item that gives access to a second user configuration area, should be the cause of the problem

I don't get the size... I mean - on a fresh XP installation - should I first go for the last version, and then this one?

Anyway - appreciate your work on this very much :D

Big Thanx !

it is really the problem. im using server 2003 rc1, it couldn't extract any more,, just popped up a msgbox as i mentioned before. and when i extracted the files under longhorn and come back to 2003 build 1289, the same problem came up as demonstrated in the legend.

but you can install separated patches despite the wizard.

what was the wrong? and how to resolve that ?!

Ok I've turned the link to the full edition into an FTP link as the same is happening to me as it has happened to cpugenious and as far as I know, Storm.

The link is...

ftp://homerserv.net/pub/AutoPatcher_XP_Jan2005_Full.exe

raptor could you change the link in the first post to that please? Able to be downloaded with Firefox & IE to my knowledge.

Since this version has the ability to create modules, Just how is that possible.

I mean is there instructions on how to do this?

On a side note; Great Update though. Been using since the first one.  It's been a lifesaver more than once.

Thanks

Theres a post on AutoPatcher's Blog that walks you through how to create modules :)

Hey guys im havin kinda the same prob w/ the patcher.. im runnin on windows media center edition 2005...

post-87314-1106470933.jpg

then when i press whts supposed to be the "accept" or "yes" button on the left, it pops up a window sayin "Run-time error '55' File already open". Anyone have any suggestions? :(

Thx

I really cant understand why translations won't load. I just installed tested AutoPatcher on a fresh install of Media Center 2005, and there was no problem at all. :s I even tried unregistering the ocx and dll files, but it would still work...

Hmm, I'm in the process of installing AutoPatcher 2005. So far the download went well, and the extraction too, but I cannot understand why on the first page of this thread the MD5 does not match mine.

I downloaded the file from the torrents aj-design created. I don't think that matters.

edit: I just finished installing AutoPatcher 2005 on a WinXP Home Edition with SP2 (fresh installation), and I did not have any username created on the Welcome window, when I click FINISH to reboot computer after AutoPatcher installation, the Welcome window came up with the name OWNER, I clicked on it and logged me to windows. :huh:

I read someone saying something about the system asked for a password after installing AutoPatcher. It did not ask me for password, but it did change the welcome window and added a username. :wacko:

    • Anyway to download these versions without being on the Experimental builds?
    • 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.
    • 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!
