should we go back to the .apf file as detection next month?

Please can somebody tell me if this letters are allowed in the translation and if not, is it possible to replace this letters by their DOS equivalent ? Below is the list of normal and DOS characters :

?=Š ; ?=… ; ?=‚ ; ?=ˆ ; ?=“ ; ?=‡ ; ?=™

UPDATE :

No, it doesn't work. Sorry for having posted for nothing before having tried it myself. But can anyone tell me what is the characters equivalent table to transform my accents like I use to do with batch scripts ? Or would it be only available with the next version of the AutoPatcher program (v6) ? Or maybe can you just tell me what's the programming software you used to build the AutoPatcher app (sorry but I'm not a developer) so I would try to find this characters conversion table by myself.

Thanx in advance for your precious help...

___________________________________________________________________________________________________

Au fait, je suis en train de traduire AutoPatcher version Ao?t 2006 en fran?ais.

Apul & Korgul, prenez votre mal en patience. Ca demande beaucoup de temps mais je suis dessus ? temps plein, justement, depuis hier. C'est surtout long parce que j'essaie vraiment de vous faire ?a bien (et que j'ai des moyens c?r?braux limit?s aussi). Mais j'aime pas b?cler le boulot ! ;-D

DotNET Framework Multilingual All-in-one Installers Construction Kit

There was some bugs in the MSDN forums version of "netfxsp1.exe" and there was no tool to rebuild this install package in your own language. Now you just have to download the files corresponding to your Windows LCID.

All the files, links and instructions you need are joined in the archive. Here is a copy of one of the netfxsp1 "Instructions.txt" files to see how easy it is :

Instructions

Launch the links in your default Web browser.
You just have to go in the ?Choisir une autre langue? menu and to choose your own language. 
Download the 4 setup files and, if a file name is different than its corresponding link 
name, so rename the file as following :

DotNET 1.1 -> dotnetfx.exe
Service Pack 1 -> NDP1.1sp1-KB867460-X86.exe
Service Pack 1 Update -> NDP1.1sp1-KB886903-X86.exe
DotNET 1.1 Language Pack -> langpack.exe

Copy this 4 files into the "\FRAMEWORK" folder and edit the content of the "dnpatch.txt" to
delete the obsolete english shortcuts located in your "Start Menu\Administrative Tools" 
folder. Short instructions are inside. 2 command lines : it's so easy !

The last steps will be automatically completed by launching "Start.bat"

That's all ! Your customized "netfxsp1.exe" file will be created in the same folder as "Start.bat"

Please gimme your feedback here :

D?sol? pour les d?lais de traduction de la version d'Ao?t mais je suis en cours de cr?ation d'entreprise ce qui me laisse tr?s peu de temps. Ce sera plus cool bient?t, une fois pos?... Amusez-vous bien en attendant, je ne vous oublie pas !

And for those who want to add Firefox to their AutoPatcher personal pack, you could extract the "MozFF1506.exe" file content with 7zip. Sorry but the description is in french, it's anyway easy to understand but you could use Google to translate it (French>English). Don't forget to customize the localisation files (replace fr.xpi with your own one, the mzcv pack must be in your language and you'll still have to build a complete user profile in your own language with BackupFox, extract the profile with 7zip and build your own "profiles.exe" SFX). 2 hours of work...

Il est bizarre ce post en franglais... Tant pis, voil? le descriptif de mon pack d'install de Firefox, celui que j'ai ajout? dans mon pack perso d'Autopatcher et que je partage aujourd'hui avec vous.

  Pack d'installation automatis? ne n?cessitant aucune intervention de l'utilisateur :

- K-Lite Mega Codec Pack 1.57 : installe les codecs et le lecteur Media Player Classic 
  requis par l'extension "Media Player Connectivity", le lecteur ne sera utilis? que

- BackupFox 0.73 : vous permet de sauvegarder et restaurer vos profils Mozilla.
  Fonctionne pour Firefox et Thunderbird.

  plus. L'important est qu'il n'y ait pas de redondance de fonctions, comme ?a arrive 
  souvent. Ce profil a donc ?t? test? et optimis? pour vous faire profiter de toutes 
  les fonctions de ce formidable navigateur ? 200%. Ce profil est ?galement ?tudi? pour

How do i test my spanish translation in a windows XP english (locale 1033) system.. is it possible or i should test it as the documentation says in a clean installation of windows in the language of the translation?

Thanks!

you need to do it in a spanish copy of windows, preferably a fresh install

How do i test my spanish translation in a windows XP english (locale 1033) system.

The best way is to do it with a virtual machine that allows you to run an other Windows (or Linux) session in your current session. It was createdd by developers to test their programs with different environments or OSes. See VMWare or M$ Virtual PC.

-------------------

A propos de mon post du 13 Ao?t, voil? un compl?ment pour ceux qui pr?f?rent Opera ou qui veulent l'installer en plus.

The same build as Firefox but for Opera. Sorry, I used a combination of UHARC and NSIS scripts so you'll can decompile it to adapt the content to your language. Ask me if you want the sources.

I know this is slightly off-topic, but if anyone is willing, would you please help me translate the following paragraph into either Italian, Polish, Portuguese, Dutch, Greek, or Turkish:

"Q: What is AutoPatcher?

A: AutoPatcher could be described as an offline Windows Update. AutoPatcher provides an interface to a large collection of updates, common applications and registry tweaks, that can be easily and quickly applied to your computer system.

Q: What are the advantages of AutoPatcher over Windows Update?

A: The main advantage is that you just have to do one download in order to have all the patches and add-ons, such as Sun Java, MSN Messenger 7.x and Windows Media Player 10. If you have many computers or if you format your computer frequently, it saves both time and bandwidth. With AutoPatcher, you can install critical patches offline, eliminating the risk of getting infected while using Windows Update. You can also come in handy when updating a friend?s PC, if he/she can?t access the Internet (or uses a narrowband connection)."

It's for the descriptions for the files on my site since I host all languages. Thanks so much for your help. :-)

@LittleBUGer

Q: Cos'? AutoPatcher?

A: AutoPatcher potrebbe essere definito come Windows Update offline. AutoPatcher offre un interfaccia con una grandissima raccolta di aggiornamenti, applicazioni e tweak del registro di sistema, che possono essere facilmente e velocemente installati sul tuo computer.

Q: Quali sono i vantaggi di AutoPatcher rispetto a Windows Update?

A: Il principale vantaggio ? che con un unico download puoi avere tutti gli aggiornamenti di Windows e tante applicazioni aggiuntive, come Sun JavaVM, MSN Messenger Live 8.x e Windows Media Player 10. Se hai molti computer oppure formatti il tuo computer frequentemente, utilizzando AutoPatcher hai un enorme risparmio di tempo e banda in download. Con AutoPatcher ? possibile installare gli aggiornamenti critici essendo non in linea, eliminando cos? il rischio di venire infettato da un virus mentre si sta utilizzando Windows Update. Ti pu? anche tornare utile nel caso tu debba aggiornare il computer di un amico, specialmente se non pu? collegarsi ad internet (oppure se non ha una connessione a banda larga).

"Q: Czym jest AutoPatcher?

A: AutoPatcher może być nazwany Windows Update w trybie offline. AutoPatcher daje możliwość zainstalowania wielu poprawek, program?w, usprawnień systemu w wygodnym oknie, dzięki czemu zabezpieczysz sw?j komputer szybko i skutecznie .

P: Jakie są zalety AutoPatcher w stosunku do Windows Update?

O: Gł?wna zaletą jest możliwość pobrania wszystkich najważniejszych poprawek i łatek w jednym pliku. Dodatkowo w wersji Full znajdziesz takie elementy jak: Sun Java, Windows Live Messenger oraz Windows Media Player 10. Jeśli posiadasz wiele komputer?w i często wykonujesz formatowanie dysk?w przedstawione przez nas rozwiązanie pozwoli zaoszczędzić Ci czas oraz przepustowość łącza. Z AutoPatcher zainstalujesz wszystkie poprawki i łatki pozostając offline, dzięki temu wyeliminujesz ryzyko infekcji niezabezpieczonego komputera, tak jak ma to często miejsce przy korzystaniu z Windows Update. Nasz program pozwala także w wygodny spos?b zaktualizować komputery Twoich znajomych, kt?rzy nie posiadają dostępu do Internetu lub posiadają łącza z limitami transferu czy porostu łącza o bardzo niskiej przepustowości.

powiedzmy tak mniej wiecej...

DUTCH

"V: Wat is autopatcher?

A: Autopatcher kan het beste omschreven worden als een offline windows updater.

Autopatcher is een programma voor een grote collectie updates, veel voorkomende programma's en register tweaks, die gemakkelijk en snel toegepast kunnen worden.

V: Wat zijn de voordelen van Autopatcher boven Windows update?

A: Het grootste voordeel is dat je met een download alle patches en toevoegingen, zoals Sun Java, MSN messenger 7.x en Windows media speler kan installeren. Als je veel computers hebt of je computer vaak formateerd dan bespaard het veel tijd en bandbreedte. Met Autopatcher kan je kritische patches offline installeren, hierdoor loop je geen gevaar door ze online te moeten installeren via windows update. Je kan ook eenvoudig pc's van vrienden voorzien van de laatste updates en patches als hij of zij niet op het internet kan of een inbelverbinding heeft."

Je suis de tout coeur avec toi. J'espere que bientot une version d'AutoPatcher French sera disponible. Je vais tester la version .7ZIP mise ? dispo... Merci pour le travail, si toutefois vous continuer.

Des nouvelles sur l'avancement ?

I hope a version of AutoPatcher French will be available. I will test the version .7ZIP... Thank you for your work, if however to continue you.

Some news on advance?

Edit> : H? bien ?a marche, on s?lectionne, toussa, on peut installer mais je ne l'ai pas encore fait. Dans l'?tait qu'il est, le soft marche-t-il ? Et quelle est la date de cette version ?

It works very well, but I did not install it. Not yet. Does the soft can work? Which version is it?

    • Browser vendors pen open letter to Microsoft saying "enough is enough" by Usama Jawad We have seen Microsoft resort to questionable tactics in the past to get more customers to use Edge, such as "bribing" people to use Edge, testing new behavior so that Edge loads automatically on startup every time, and pressuring OEMs to exclusively bundle Edge in Windows PCs. However, the company often receives pushback not only from customers but also from the Browser Choice Alliance (BCA). Now, the collective has penned an open letter to the Redmond tech firm to highlight its dissatisfaction with its practices. For those unaware, BCA is a coalition that touts several browser vendors as its members, including Google Chrome, Midori, Opera, Vivaldi, BrowserWorks, and Wavebox. Its latest open letter to Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella emphasizes that "enough is enough" and that user choice on Windows should be respected. It claimed that the company is abusing its dominant position in the PC space to push customers to its first-party browser, even if they don't want to use it. To do this, it resorts to shady tactics, some of which we highlighted at the start of this piece. It says that Microsoft is making it very difficult for users to set their preferred browser across all touchpoints. This is problematic as PCs are becoming even more prevalent in the AI era, so user choice is being restricted across even more devices, further frustrating users (and competing browser vendors). As such, BCA has urged Microsoft to take the following actions to level the playing field: Allow browser suppliers to compete for preinstallation and default deals with Windows PC manufacturers End dark patterns targeted at users seeking to download and effectively use other browsers (including as system-level default) Bring back the ability for users to make switching default browsers simple and transparent with a “single click” change for all relevant file types and apps (including PDFs) Open all web links in the users’ selected system-level browser of choice Eliminate manipulative Microsoft-exclusive banners pushing Edge in Windows, including when users are searching for other browsers Stop using operating system updates to push users back to Edge Remove the restrictive configurations of existing S mode devices that block the usage of third-party browsers. It believes that all browsers should compete on merit, as this will drive innovation and healthy competition. Despite its strong wording and publication of the letter openly, it's unclear if Microsoft will pay any heed to the BCA and if this will result in any tangible downstream benefits. We'll likely find out in due time.
