I think that a lof of people have a "grey"version of one OS.....

If Microsoft will add a piracy check.....LINUX will come out of the darkness.......

Don't you think so?

But Autopatcher isn't software from Microsoft, it only makes it possible to do an installation at once :D If Microsoft thinks that they have to do a piracy check, a lof of forums will be gone soon........ if you feel the need or responsiblity to do that too. Just go with the flow.......

Do you really thank that programmers of applications like Veritas (Wininstall) gonna do this too? Only because they use MS products or codes? Microsoft writes on the website how to make MSI packages with third-party software. On the other hand it's a lot of work for programmers. That's the most positve point I see at this moment.....

One thing....does this belong to the section SPYWARE???

Okay people, you win! I will not enable the check. Let's hope Microsoft adds the needed checks in the hotfixes instead of the website.

Well, well let me say thanks.........Raptor. Did you really think Mircosoft would blame you or something like that? That's the last you have to worry about!

We'll see what Microsoft is going to do in the nearest future with this piracy thing.....I think that it will be available through the website only. Otterwise it would be unpossible to make SMS packages for sending to clients in a network.

Raptor, you are coinciding with Microsoft to help stop piracy. Is that what you really intend to do? What a pointless feature if you enable it. Are you trying to get brownie points here? You will lose a lot of support from the community if you enable this feature.

Worried that your pirated XP install can't be updated?

People, this topic was created for something else. Not to discuss about a piracy check.

I think that Raptor is right about it. If Microsoft will use the piracy check in a patch or hotfix it should be done in AutoPatcher too. Otherwise it would be illegal what we are doing.

If Microsoft will do the check trough the website (windows update) then the choice will be by Raptor. He will do what he thinks is best to too.

Now back to the start of this topic:

updates not applying

The End!! :sleep:

then the updates would check for themselves though !! no need for AP to do it itself :pinch:

but i agree, this topic has gone waayyy off topic, and in the end its up to raptor, whatever he decides im fine with :)

:D Framework installation troubles are gone :D
I will post here, later on this day or tomorrow (Sunday the 15th), the settings what are wrong and what should be done to fix it. Concerning the AutoPatcher Modules

Why not directly? It's my birthday....today....... :fun:

updates not applying:

Check the settings below for each module using the Autopatcher Module Editor 2.0

Microsoft .NET Framework version 1.1

Module name: renamed in the April release

File name: dotnetfx.exe (original filename)

In the tab folder ?Behavior? check the Value Priority

Be sure it has the date:

Priority=20030625

If you need to install the language pack

Filename: langpack.exe (original filename)

In the tab folder ?Behavior? check the Value Priority

Be sure it has the date:

Priority=20030626

Microsoft .NET Framework version 1.1 Service Pack 1

Module name: dotnet11sp1.amc

Filename: NDP1.1sp1-KB867460-X86.exe (original filename)

In the tab folder ?Behavior? check the Value Priority

Be sure it has the date:

Priority=20040803

KB886903 Microsoft .NET Framework version 1.1 Service Pack 1 Security update

Module name: kb886903.amc

Filename: NDP1.1sp1-KB886903-X86.exe (original filename) or (after extraction) M886903.msp

In the tab folder ?Behavior? check the Value Priority

Be sure it has the date:

Priority=20050208

The KB886903 Microsoft .NET Framework version 1.1 Service Pack 1 Security update must be removed form the LITE version. Make it only avaiable in the full-version.

The dates are the most important settings that you need to check. As in the example above the installation of the modules works fine. The installation will be done depending on the order of the dates.

Within the explorer you will see an order of the modules / files in a different way. Don?t give that any attention, it?s all about the installation and the way AutoPatcher installs the modules.

    • An excellent piece of hardware held back by its OS
    • A new wallpaper... high définition... I know ! this one really cleared my skin, it boosted my crops and grew my hair an extra inch.

    • Here is the new Surface Laptop Ultra wallpaper in high resolution by Taras Buria Earlier this week, Microsoft announced the Surface Laptop Ultra, its brand-new high-end laptop powered by NVIDIA's brand-new RTX Spark processor. As usual, Microsoft gives each new device a unique wallpaper, and the Surface Laptop Ultra is no exception. While the device is not publicly available yet, somebody has already extracted its wallpaper, giving everyone a chance to get a piece of the upcoming laptop in its full-resolution glory. The Surface Laptop Ultra has a very dark, abstract wallpaper that resembles the stock wallpapers in Windows Server, albeit with much less color. Having this dark, grim wallpaper highlights the laptop's mini-LED display and its ability to cut off parts of the screen's backlight to achieve OLED-like black levels. However, if you also like light wallpapers, we made a white version by simply inverting its colors. You can download both wallpapers below (click the image, right-click it, and select "Save as"): The Surface Laptop Ultra is expected to launch later this year. Microsoft is not revealing full details yet, including the price. However, Microsoft confirmed up to 1 petaflop of AI performance and RTX 5070-level of GPU performance. The heart of the laptop has up to 20 CPU cores and 6,144 GPU cores. Additionally, Microsoft and NVIDIA boast high CPU efficiency for all-day battery life. As for the display, it is a 15-inch mini-LED display with a pixel density of 262 ppi and a maximum brightness of 2,000 nits. Of course, not everyone needs this amount of power, and certainly not everyone can afford it. For those who need a more affordable device, Microsoft is also preparing the next-generation Surface Pro powered by the Snapdragon X2 Elite processor. Weeks ahead of the announcement, details about this computer were leaked by a retailer. Do you like the Surface Laptop Ultra's stock wallpaper? Share your thoughts in the comments.
