Just a couple of quick questions about AutoPatcher,

1. I noticed that AutoPatcher contains a number of extras which aren't obtained through regular Windows Updates (eg. extra programs, tweaks etc.) Is it possible to disable these and only install what Windows Update would normally install?

2. Are there any differences between a system updated using Windows Update and a system updated using this patch (apart from the included extras), and can Windows Updates still be performed normally after using AutoPatcher?

1. yes, when you run autopatcher you get to select exacty what you install.

2.no difference, except the possibility of a few additional 'hotfix' updates which arent available through windows updates.

there will be no change to how windows update works

I need some help urgently

Recently I noticed that there was no AutoPatcher XP for September 2005. So does that mean that XP October 2005 includes udates for September as well. Also, how can i verify this??

One more thing, I started using AutoPatcher since the July 2005 version for my WinXP Pro SP2, and i have never used the Windws Update feature before that. So does that mean I dont have any updates (released before July) installed? Or did AutoPatcher XP July 2005 detect the missing updates and install it for me

Desperately seeking a reply. Plz reply at suyash_jaiswal 'at' hotmail.com

A million thanks to the person willing to help me on this

please dont use all caps! - theblazingangel

by "all", u really mean ALL?i.e. right since the launch of windows xp?

By "all" he means since the launch of Windows XP ServicePack 2. AutoPatcher XP is based on this Windows XP ServicePack 2. So, all the updates for SP1 aren't included!

If you install a fresh Windows XP OS (Home or Professional) and you are going to use Windows Update Service. You'll see that you have to download 30 Essential updates and 6 Optional updates. After that you need to reboot your system and go on using Windows Update Service that shows you that you need to install 1 essential and 2 Optional updates.....download and reboot again......are you finished? Nope, let's check what the Windows Update Service will say......1 Essential update is waiting for you....downloading and you are done. If you have to do this all by a dialup connection.......pffffffff

AutoPatcher will offer you to do this all at once, and if you want...select MSN messenger, Windows Messenger, backgrounds for your desktop, screensavers, tools and much more..... the only thing you have to do is select what you want and confirm your action by clicking the update button!

If microsoft doesn't change any update or hotfix, you are up-to-date while you are drinking coffee or maybe a beer :D

thanks mate, it helped me a lot.

just one last question...i had installed all critical and recommended updates of autopatcher xp august 2005. then now i installed everything given in autopatcherxp october 2005(which was about 45 in number). so that means these 45 updates were released by microsoft during september and october, right?

^ no, there ware something like 9 new updates released in october.

all autopatcher releases are culmutive, meaning they include everything in the last release.

the exception is an 'update' release which is designed to just update the previous months release with current months stuff.

when you run autopatcher for a second time, you should notice that the updates that are already installed are highlighted in blue and are unchecked. theres no need to install these again.

autopatcher includes all updates found through windows update, plus a few more, since the release of SP2. you should have SP2 installed first.

I've been using AutoPatcher for a while now and I love it! I'm a PC/Network Tech in PA (USA) and will reload several PCs every week :blink: ! AutoPatcher helps me greatly! Thanks!

Now for my query...

This Fix I keep reading about... What does it fix? I downloaded the AutoPatchers for Win2K3, WinXP & Win2K. Do I need the fix?

1028 EST

^ microsoft made a mistake with one of the october updates and so an update was missed out from the xp october release.

the 'fix' release will add the module for the missing update and also remove a few older modules that are no longer necessary.

    • Quantum Error Correction Validated in Nature: Microsoft and Quantinuum Log 800-Fold Improvement Two years after the original press-release announcement, independently peer-reviewed results published in Nature on June 10, 2026, have confirmed that Microsoft and Quantinuum achieved an 800-fold reduction in quantum error rates on real trapped-ion hardware — the largest gap between physical and logical error rates ever independently validated.    What Quantum Error Correction Actually Does — and Why Breaking Even Is Hard https://www.techtimes.com/articles/318329/20260613/quantum-error-correction-validated-nature-microsoft-quantinuum-log-800-fold-improvement.htm   Quantum Computing Wiring Bottleneck Cracked by HKU Silicon Carbide Chip at Qubit Temperature Engineers at the University of Hong Kong have built the first cryogenic control chip that operates at the same temperature as superconducting qubits — 10 millikelvin, or just one-hundredth of a degree above absolute zero — without generating the heat that has forced every competing approach to park its electronics hundreds of meters of cable away. https://www.techtimes.com/articles/318325/20260613/quantum-computing-wiring-bottleneck-cracked-hku-silicon-carbide-chip-qubit-temperature.htm  
    • RevPDF 4.5.0 by Razvan Serea RevPDF is a free, fully offline PDF editor for Windows, macOS, and Linux that lets you edit text and images directly inside PDF files — no internet connection, no account, and no cloud uploads required. Unlike bloated alternatives that demand subscriptions and constant connectivity, RevPDF fits in under 60MB on desktop while delivering a complete editing toolkit: annotate, redact, sign, compress, split, merge, convert, and reorganize pages, all processed locally on your device. Smart font matching ensures edited text blends seamlessly with the original, and multi-language support includes RTL scripts such as Arabic and Hebrew. Where most PDF editors force you to choose between features and simplicity, RevPDF manages both. You can build interactive forms from scratch with text fields, checkboxes, and dropdowns, permanently redact sensitive data before sharing, draw freehand on contracts and diagrams, and add custom watermarks — all without a single file leaving your machine. Edit Text and Images Directly Inside PDFs RevPDF supports true inline PDF editing — not just annotation layers on top of a document, but actual modification of existing text and images within the file. A smart font-matching engine identifies the font used in the original document and applies it automatically when you make edits, so changes blend naturally with the surrounding content. You can reposition elements, resize images, and update text across single pages or entire documents. RevPDF 4.5.0 release notes: This is one of the biggest updates to RevPDF yet. A lot of things people have been asking for are finally here. New Features Auto Redaction Permanently redact sensitive text and areas from your PDFs before sharing. Clean, irreversible, and fully offline. Comments, Links & Bookmarks Add comments for review, insert clickable links, and create bookmarks to jump around long documents without scrolling forever. Find & Replace Search across the whole document and replace text in one go. Long overdue. Split Pages Vertically or Horizontally Split any page down the middle, vertically or horizontally. Perfect for scanned books or double-page spreads. New Drawing Tools More tools for freehand drawing and markup, better for annotations, sketches, and detailed notes. Continuous Scrolling in Editor The editor now scrolls continuously through pages instead of jumping between them. Working through long documents is a lot smoother now. PDF Metadata Editor View and edit the metadata stored inside your PDFs, including title, author, subject, and keywords. Better Font Matching Text edits now blend in more naturally by doing a better job of matching the original font. Tabbed PDF Viewer Open multiple PDFs at once in tabs and switch between them without going back to the home screen. Add Links Insert hyperlinks anywhere in your PDF, to external URLs or to other pages within the document. Share & Print Shortcuts Share or print directly from the editing screen, home screen, and viewer. No extra steps. Minor Updates Paste images directly from clipboard into your PDF New image editing tools for more control over images inside documents Bug Fixes Fixed file saving issues on Windows and Linux Everything still works fully offline. No login, no cloud, no account. Your files stay on your device.

    • Interesting. I'm not using a VPN with my phone. I tried though my home internet (Rogers) and my cellular internet (Telus) using their respective DNS servers and both trigger the dialog above.
