^ microsoft release updates monthly, and we release a new version as soon as we can after they release them.

you can find the date of microsofts next scheduled release here: www.microsoft.com/technet/security/current.aspx

unfortuntely though, i think raptors decided to skip the august release because were not yet sure what were going to do about WGA.

First of all, THANKS for all thos involved in putting Autopatcher together! It's a great product and quite a timesaver!

I am having a small problem with the July Autopatcher that I haven't had with any previous version I've tried. I did a full format and install of Xp, then installed Autopatcher. The problem is I can't get my computer to auto login. I've tried the "control userpasswords2" method and the "tweakui" method, and neither will allow me to auto login.

I last did a full install with the April Autopatcher and had no problems with my login.

Any suggestions??

Thanks!

There are 3 users....Administrator, ASP.NET (part of Microsoft .NET Framework), and my own account.

I even tried the registry work-around suggested by Microsoft (HERE)

I think the best approach is to offer 2 solutions......

The first is for users that desire WGA "add on" updates that include security patches.

The second is "Security Patches and Non WGA updates"

Microsoft has made a point that it will continue to offer to "all", security patches. They have to pirated or not. They offered such a weak operating sytem and they know that if they eliminated all security patches, regardless of legit versions or not, they could make the internet a very dagerous place with their junk software.

WGA (Windows Garbage Again)........

Keep up the good work and keep it open for all..... Choice is what I say.... the choice to choose WGA or not. :blink:

Hello everyone just a quick one,

My Network has stop in one direction, Since installing Autopatcher I cant browse the machine I installed autopatch on (using explorer) but I can browser the PC drives from the Autopatched machine to others on the network.

In other words I can browser there files and they are locked out on my files. How do I let them back in to see my drives/PC?

Error is "You do not have persmission to use the network resources...."

Thanks

^ Until we decide upon the WGA issue, we can only provide the module configuration files, and point you to microsoft.com to get the administrative hotfixes. Providing you follow the instructions, you will have working, official, modules. I know it's a little annoying, but it's the best we can do at the moment.

    • 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.

      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!
