February's was based in AutoPatcher 6.0.0.9, and the new will be based in the 6.0.0.10. It introduces a big change in the OS string. I preffer to release it later (when i have a little time), since i've started to change them. And since there aren't any critical updates... :)

I'll need a host (since filefront's downloads are slow).

I checked again on the patcher, when putting the tweaks manually (by manually regediting the apf files into registry) the tweaks work, it seems that the autopatcher is not doing it correctly to add apf contents to the registry in some places (Reason is that in the HKLM\Software\AutoPatcher key there is only 1 entry relaive to MSN Messenger install, how did it manage to get there?)

Also found a bug:

when I launch Autopatcher, if after I click agree (where it start scanning for modules) I change window (change focus to some other window), AutoPatcher will stop with error "Run-Time Error '0'", and then closes.

Hmmm I'm running it now, for the second time. I installed x64, ran MS Update, then ran AP. It didn't appear to recognize all the official patches I installed, but I didn't select them since I know they are installed. But I did select a number of other items, themes, shockwave, icons on the desktop, etc, and after I ran it, selected finish, and it didn't tell me to restart. Knowing that is the normal procedure, I did it any way, but nothing appears to have installed.

So, running it as I type this, again, and selected the 'all' option this time. And the log appears to not be updating as to what it is installing, although the time to finish is changing. Each and every time I peek, it says "Current item: Disable SSDP and UPNP services" for the last 10, 15, minutes. And neither the current item or the total progress bars are changing, just the time to finish.

    • It would be surprising if even 3 year old Apple Watches (and not SE models at that) cannot run watchOS 27. Granted, it doesn't mean it would work as well. We'll see.
    • Apple launches new website for parents and a revamped Screen Time experience by Aditya Tiwari At WWDC 2026, Apple announced new parental control features for iOS 27, iPadOS 27, and macOS 27 to keep kids' device usage in check and keep them safe online. As a parent, you'll get access to a simpler setup experience, Ask to Browse, Time Allowances, and a redesigned Screen Time. You'll be able to pick exactly which apps your child can access on their device, choosing from just a few essential apps, a curated set, or the apps you feel are appropriate. There will be an option to gradually add more apps. Ask to Browse is a new feature that requires kids to request permission before visiting a new website in Safari on iPhone, iPad, or Mac. You can also turn on a setting that requires your kid to ask for approval before connecting with an unknown contact via Messages, FaceTime, or the Phone app. You can manage your child's screen time more effectively with Time Allowances that work across categories, including Games, Entertainment, and Social Media. You can set time limits based on your kid's age and get suggestions informed by expert research. Speaking of expert guidance, Apple added that it's working with the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) to adapt its Family Media Plan to create a guide parents can refer to when using Apple products. Moreover, the company has also set up a new dedicated website, where you can find tools, resources, and answers to common questions around parental controls and child safety. Apple also allows parents to set daily schedules to manage screen time, configuring access to different apps at different times of the day and across the week. Overall, the Screen Time section has been revamped and provides a bird's-eye view of your kid's average device usage and most-used apps. "For example, to help protect important family moments, parents can quickly limit access during meals, outdoor play, and other times that deserve full attention. If kids need a little extra time to finish something in an app, parents can also easily extend access," Apple said. Apart from these, Communication Safety has been updated to block gore or violent content when detected in shared images or videos. The feature already blurs nudity in Messages and FaceTime calls, and is enabled by default for users under 18.
    • They already threw the Ultra 1st gen under the bus? It really feels like someone screwed up, and that advanced AI features will only be available on the list above but someone screwed up and said that Watch OS 27 in general will only be available for those models. I think they will pull it back. I did see someone also put a snap shot of their series 9 watch being offered the watch os 27 beta. As the backlash online is already in full swing.
    • Right, Google... because that's who this is going to. Google, the company who's entire business model is geared around ad revenue and your personal data.
    • That is the natural course for regulations. First to protect the consumer. Then to protect the business/industry from upstart competition. There are countless examples across history.
