AutoPatcher XP August 2005

[john0877]

any word on when an august one is to be released or what is the usual schedule for releases?

[+theblazingangel MVC]

^ 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)

[James33]

I removed ASP.NET since I had no need for it and was able to auto log in .

[spmccord]

I just tried that but nothing's changed....I'm baffled!

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:

I had the same problem, and solved it this way:

control panel->user accaunts2-> mark "user must enter a user name and password to use this computer"

I hope this will help.

^ You can always make your own modules...

[Angelico_Payne]

August's Rollup added.

[ajschwab2004]

Wheres the English versions for August 2005 Rollup?

[gandolas]

Look under English download links.

[glitch409]

I'm not being prompted for WGA when I download the patches. This happening to anyone else? :unsure:

[Bourdo]

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

Bourdo

August 2005 Rollup?

Why links to August full and lite not exists?

Is that the way avoiding WGA? Adding everymonth's rollups?!

Best regards,

^ 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.

[ajschwab2004]

I get a error it saids module panic this release isn't suitable for your system.

[Wannes]

I am getting very slow download speeds for the July version. :(

[Angelico_Payne]

Jesus guys, you are not kids :angry: , either you compy with WGA, either you don't - decide allready; you know our opinion, you know the dangers, so decide.
