6) When i double click the AutoPatcher shortcut nothing happens

Go to: C:\Program Files\AutoPatcher\tools, run 'AutoPatcher Module Editor.exe' and close it - next run autopatcher.

If that doesn't help, copy comdlg32.ocx from the AutoPatcher \bin folder to c:\windows\system32 (overwrite existing file if there is one).

I've tried this.. I've tried creating another login with.. both are normal characters.. still nothing..

I really wanna get this to work on my Windows XP sp2 machine as I do not connect that one to the net or the network..

After messin around for a while I finally got it.. First I tried it in windows safe mode... It worked but could not access the windows installer service.. So that told me that some software that was running in normal mode was preventing autopatcher from running.. So I went into normal mode and ended all of the process the wern't required for windows to run.. still no go..

Finnaly, I restarted and clicked on AutoPatcher the first second i could see the desktop.. IT WORKED!!! I had beat whatever was gonna load and cause it not to work..

It's a quit silly method but works. Hope this helps someone.

All of the current releases (Except x64 and Vista) are using AutoPatcher 5.1.

There is no "full update" file, what you have is simply an update.

You will need the November Full, December Update and January Update files and install them in order :)

Hey, there...

I've just recently installed AP XP. I installed the Nov 06 FULL version and everything ran great. I then installed the DEC 06, JAN 07 and FEB 07 updates and now I'm getting "Abnormal Program Termination" errors on various different applications. by various I mean varied, from Half-life 2: SOURCE to Daemon tools to Encarta 2003.

I didn't run any programs in between running the Dec 06 and feb 07 updates, just rebooted at the end of each update.

I have tried disabling windows defender and the windows firewall. I've also run the tweak undo tool but to no avail. Please help.

Thanks.

Installing from from clean format, do I need Jan 07 & Dec 06 updates with Nov 06 Full & Feb 07 updates to have completely updated XP installation?

Of course! You must install in correct order: Nov06 Full/Lite + Dec06 Update + Jan07 Update + Feb07 Update.

I'have a Autopatcher_april2004 release,Extracted it to some other drive other than host os, i just did a clean format & tried it before running Nov'06,Dec'06 & etc

I got a an error,"Language Translation" something like this, I read all language translation documents

But i think they r for newer releases of autopatcher? I tried changing LCID code but earlier in that release documentation it was written to change it from like english"ENU" to german "DEU".so that trick didnt work.I tried changing system language & regional settings,still the same prob.

Can u tell me how to start it frm begining,or shall i continue now from Nov'06,Dec'06 releases?

Hi

I have downloaded and installed AutoPatcher_XP_Nov06_ENU_Full.exe. Everytime I run it, after selecting the items to install, when I click the "Update" button I get a Run-time error '5'.

Things I've already tried (and have not worked):

- Searching this site for answer :-)

- Searching the WEB

- Rebooting

- Uninstall, reboot, re-install

- Clean up temporary files/directories

- Run RegClean

- Turn off firewall and virus scanner

- Changed directory to G:\Autoatcher (to ensure no spaces in the path)

Thanks

Barry

I tried both of the option below with no success :-(

Any other idears?

Thanks

Barry

@Barry G Kruyssen, try copying files in C:\Program Files\AutoPatcher\bin to C:\Windows\System32, and or running files in C:\program Files\AutoPatcher\win9xnt

Acabei de fazer fazer o download do seguinte arquivo:

Tenho o Windows XP Pro SP2 instalado no computador.

Edited by marcelo verdura

marcelo verdura, por favor, verifique o md5 do arquivo. se estiver corrompido, este tipo de inconveniente pode ocorrer. o md5 correto ? este: b3c677007984f66d40753a89934e416b

eu gosto desta ferramenta para testar md5:

http://www.nero.com/enu/Nero_MD5_Verifier.html

? gratuito e bem f?cil de usar.

se o md5 n?o bater, s? baixando novamente. existe outro mirror http para este arquivo, mas n?o sei se ainda est? vivo. existe ainda mirror no demonoid, mininova e outros trackers. tamb?m h? um mirror no emule.

em alguns dias, uma nova vers?o full deve ser lan?ada. ela ? baseada no AP 5.6 e a vers?o pt-br j? est? rodando ok com essa engine, logo, voc? tamb?m pode esperar alguns dias

ps: existem apenas algumas pessoas que falam portugu?s aqui, ent?o...

sap:

marcelo verdura, please check md5 of that file. if it is corrupted in any way, this sort of thing can happend. the md5 for this file should be this: b3c677007984f66d40753a89934e416b

i like of this tool to chek md5:

http://www.nero.com/enu/Nero_MD5_Verifier.html

it's free and pretty easy to run.

if the file that you have doesn't match you will need download it again. there's another http mirror fot that, but i don't know if it's alive yet. there's another ones at demonid/mininova and other trackers. there's one e2k mirror too.

but in a few days, a new full version will arrive. it's based on AP 5.6 and pt-br is already running fine, so, you may wait a few more days.

ps: there's just a few guys that speak portuguese in here, so...

edit: damm keyboard...

Ol?,

Depois de rodar o AutoPatcher WXP Jan#2007 BR o compartilhamento de arquivos de meu computador deixou de ser acessado por outros computadores do grupo de trabalho. Apenas a impressora ? acess?vel. Algu?m saberia dizer qual ? a atualiza??o que prejudicou o compartilhamento?

Tentei o procedimento de desfazer o Tweak IPC Security, como diz no in?cio deste forum, mas n?o resolveu.

Obrigado.

Hello. I've downloaded the Full January Pack PL, installed it and the whole thing worked great.

BUT - after I downloaded and installed the February Update and chose to run autopatcher after the installation, nothing happened. Ok, so I thought - let's just run it manually. When I run the .exe file, an error window popped up, saying: "C:\Program Files\AutoPatcher\AutoPatcher.exe is not a proper Win 32 application".

Any ideas, what can I do? I downloaded/installed it 3 times, always get the same thing. Oh, I've also downloaded the "Run-time-error_fix.exe" but it didn't solve my problem. Any help would be appreciated ^^'

    • I just teams to stop stealing the damn focus every time it starts or restarts after an update. Annoying as all hell.
    • Obviously new hardware costs more money. Never said you get new 2025 hardware for $266. You get new 2025 hardware for as little as $399 and only gets better with back to school sales. At the $499-699, there's some decent spec laptops with 16 GB RAM, and 1 TB SSD with better build quality than this lowest end ideapad.

    • Can you get a brand new (not refurb) device like this, but with 2025 hardware, for $266? Under $300? No? If you can, it must have the worst specs otherwise (4gb ram, 1366x768 12in lcd screen, 256gb spinning hard drive, etc.). Please show me this sub-$300 2025 laptop that is better than what the article shows.
