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

ftp://cpugeniusmv.is-a-geek.org/apxp/Auto...an2005_Lite.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...

it shows up this right here when i run the autorun:

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:

    • Dopamine 3.0.6 by Razvan Serea Dopamine is an awesome free audio player which tries to make organizing and listening to music as simple and pretty as possible. Dopamine has been designed for Windows 7, Windows 8.x and Windows 10 and plays mp3, ogg vorbis, flac, wma and m4a/aac music formats quite well. The best part? It's created by long-time Neowin member, Raphaël Godart. If you’re looking for a music player to handle a large music collection, you should definitely give Dopamine a try. Dopamine 3.0.6 changelog: Fixed Manually edited album covers are overwritten on the next collection refresh Fixed AppImage package not working on modern GNU/Linux distributions Deleting song from playlist sometimes fails Playback controls only work when clicking on upper half of the buttons It's unclear that files must be tagged with an external ReplayGain scanner (for example rsgain) before normalization can take effect. Change to Artist or Album tags is not reflected in the song list view nor in the Now Playing information ReplayGain issues Smart playlist filters ignore text containing accents or other special characters Some MP3 files trigger an "MPEG header not found" error due to a too-narrow initial MPEG header scan range Changed Updated the Vietnamese translation Download: Dopamine 3.0.6 | 122.0 MB (Open Source) Links: Home Page | Forum Discussion | Screenshot | Other OSes Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware
    • BleachBit 6.0.1 Beta by Razvan Serea When your computer is getting full, BleachBit quickly frees disk space. When your information is only your business, BleachBit guards your privacy. With BleachBit you can free cache, delete cookies, clear Internet history, shred temporary files, delete logs, and discard junk you didn't know was there. Designed for Linux and Windows systems, it wipes clean thousands of applications including Firefox, Microsoft Edge, Google Chrome, Opera, Safari, and more. Beyond simply deleting files, BleachBit includes advanced features such as shredding files to prevent recovery, wiping free disk space to hide traces of files deleted by other applications, and vacuuming Firefox to make it faster. Better than free, BleachBit is open source. BleachBit has many useful features: Delete your private files so completely that "even God can't read them" according to South Carolina Representative Trey Gowdy. Simple operation: read the descriptions, check the boxes you want, click preview, and click delete. Multi-platform: Linux and Windows Free of charge and no money trail Free to share, learn, and modify (open source) No adware, spyware, malware, browser toolbars, or "value-added software" Translated to 64 languages besides American English Shred files to hide their contents and prevent data recovery Shred any file (such as a spreadsheet on your desktop) Overwrite free disk space to hide previously deleted files Portable app for Windows: run without installation Command line interface for scripting and automation CleanerML allows anyone to write a new cleaner using XML Automatically import and update winapp2.ini cleaner files (a separate download) giving Windows users access to 2500+ additional cleaners Frequent software updates with new features Going beyond standard deletion of files, BleachBit has several advanced cleaners: Clear the memory and swap on Linux Delete broken shortcuts on Linux Delete the Firefox URL history without deleting the whole file—with optional shredding Delete Linux localizations: delete languages you don't use. More powerful than localepurge and available on more Linux distributions. Clean APT for Debian, Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Xubuntu, and Linux Mint Find widely-scattered junk such as Thumbs.db and .DS_Store files. Execute yum clean for CentOS, Fedora, and Red Hat to remove cached package data Delete Windows registry keys—often where MRU (most recently used) lists are stored Delete the OpenOffice.org recent documents list without deleting the whole Common.xcu file Overwrite free disk space to hide previously files Vacuum Firefox, Google Chrome, Liferea, Thunderbird, and Yum databases: shrink files without removing data to save space and improve speed Surgically remove private information from .ini and JSON configuration files and SQLite3 databases without deleting the whole file Overwrite data in SQLite3 before deleting it to prevent recovery (optional) BleachBit 6.0.1 Beta release notes: BleachBit 6.0.1 beta is now available for testing. This maintenance-focused release includes bug fixes, updated translations, and a range of safe enhancements. This release fixes a Windows security issue that could allow arbitrary file deletion during privileged cleaning (reported by Zeze with TeamT5). It also adds new cleaners (including a DNS cache cleaner, Claude Code, and Visual Studio Code forks), support for multiple Chrome and Edge profiles, new deep scan options for developer directories like node_modules and venv, and safer, faster file shredding. All Platforms Added cleaners for Claude Code, DNS cache, and many Visual Studio Code forks. Added support for multiple Chrome and Edge profiles. Chrome can now clean downloaded AI models. Deep Scan can optionally remove venv, __pycache__, node_modules, and .angular directories. Deep Scan is faster by skipping directories on the keep list. File shredding is safer, faster, and leaves fewer recoverable traces. Improved handling of cookies, symlinks, Unicode filenames, external processes, and configuration files. Improved Expert Mode warnings and long warning dialogs. Fixed crashes related to cleaner detection, invalid Unicode, and malformed cleaner data. Clipboard is now cleared automatically after shredding files via paste operations. Linux Added AppImage support. Added cleaners for Visual Studio Code, Codeium, Librewolf (.deb), Transmission (Flatpak), and Profanity. Improved Linux trash detection, including Snap-installed applications and mounted drives. Fixed Wayland root CLI issues and several Snap-related problems. Improved package dependencies, AppStream metadata, and desktop file handling. Fixed startup crashes when Python Requests is unavailable. Windows Fixed a security vulnerability that could allow arbitrary file deletion when cleaning with elevated privileges. Added %WindowsSystem% variable support. Improved clipboard clearing using native Windows APIs. Improved installer experience on unsupported Windows versions. Reduced installer size and improved application robustness. Fixed Unicode handling, filename anonymization, Git revision reporting, and splash screen stability.

    • DriversCloud 12.1.6 by Razvan Serea With DriversCloud (formerly My-Config.com), you can explore your computer easily, safely and free. The application quickly scans your PC and identifies the hardware and software components. DriversCloud then establishes a list of the different drivers compatible with your OS and hardware. Download the drivers needed for the proper functioning of your computer. To detect your drivers, DriversCloud also displays a detailed summary of your hardware and software configuration, analyzes your BSOD, monitors in real-time your PC voltages and temperatures and lets you share your configuration online. Once the hardware components have been detected, you will be able to obtain with just a few clicks the latest drivers corresponding to the identified hardware. You can record your configuration on the site for free, and can get the corresponding URL to post the configuration to technical forums, e-mail and social networks. You can also download the detection result (the configuration) as a PDF file. To protect the user's privacy and data confidentiality, a 4-level confidentiality system was created that filters the XML marks and gives control to the user. The default level can be modified in the preferences. Using the maximum level will prevent the user from publishing his configuration and generating a corresponding PDF file. In non-connected mode, each XML configuration is stored on the server for one day (for practical reasons). However, you are given the opportunity to manually delete it. Created in 2004, and continually improved, My-Config.com has established itself on the web as a free service to PC users running Windows and Linux operating systems. The service is designed to work with the most common Internet browsers (Edge, Firefox, Chrome, Safari).
