No full !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What the hell did I download :angry: :angry: :angry: :angry: :angry: :blink:

dude, calm down :o

[Angelico_Payne]

2005? I thought that was just a error.... why the hell would someone host jan2005 in jan2006???!!!

I applyed it on a computer? :shocked:

so what now...

damn it !!!!

dont worry about it, just remove it and replace with dec05 + jan06 update.

note with the new one, it might be worth reinstalling all updates that are detected as installed, because sometimes newer copies of an update become available and you want to be absolutely 100% sure youve got all the latest copies of files.

[Angelico_Payne]

Damn I overreacted :blush: , but just couldn't figure out what kind of sick jock was to put january 2005 full and let people download it :huh:

Even my friend was shocked

Ha ha, :D

But now seriously : if I extract patches and put the in folder of december full, will they be loaded and applyed as well? along with patches from dec?

just delete the autopatcher folder, download and install dec05 full or lite, download and install jan06 update, run autopatcher, and install everything, even those detected as installed (blue), then youll be fine.

Where can I find the Jan Full version English !

If you'd read the thread, you'll see there is no Full version this month - you'll have to download December full and the Jan Update.

Hi folks!

I'm trying to download December 2005 Full for Brazilian Portuguese. I'm unable to use eMule or other P2P software. A member has post a file into Filefront server but this download always reset.

I wanna know if there is a SITE that I can download the file using, if possible, a download manager, because is to hard to download this file. In my job with have a 1 MEGA link for download and we still has not made this download.

Thanks!

Willian Lopes

Torrents may not be of much use for such a small file, however ED2k and Gnutella links might:

Gnutella:

magnet:?xt=urn:bitprint:HJAOA7SQWUHR3BRPJPPF3JT4GQUC7YPF.MPH53GDR6XISXQBJYYUR5EXPJKHGBI2VLP74JAA&dn=AutoPatcher_XP_Jan06_ENU_Update.exe

ED2k:

ed2k://|file|AutoPatcher_XP_Jan06_ENU_Update.exe|6150882|f76fddef72c8466122805578dac8e1de|/

Just FYI - I usually keep a few versions past hosted via these two all the time... in addition to ancient versions like the pre-SP1s... My December ed2k/gnutella links are in the December thread too.

Hello, where can I find the patch related to the KB896984 issue ?

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/896984/en-us

I didn't find it into AutoPatcher XP.

Thanks for your help

896984 appears to be a hotfix. For this reason, I don't think you will see it in windows update, and therefore you won't see it in Autopatcher...

Best regards,

No Full Version this month. I believe this was stated numerous times already.

[+M2Ys4U Subscriber¹]

Could one of the team put in the main post that there is no Full?

[spazo]

So after installing windows you then just run the autopatcher and it brings windows upto date?.

if you have SP2 already installed (be it after Windows installation or slipstreamed into it), yes.

Cool yeh i got xp with sp2 slipstreamed i just saw autopatcher and thought wow this would be handy so awesome stuff thanks.

[Jones]

What I don't understand is - if the latest FULL (this month DECEMBER + JANUARY UPDATE) is all it takes to get up-to-date, how come the FULL files don't grow bigger and bigger? Shouldn't the size be ~ OCT + NOV + DEC or something like that?

[bestofcomputer]

Hi.

Are you really not going to release a full version neither in jan06, neither in feb06 ?

Oh no !...

I would like so much a next full version ! When ?

And it seems you didnt included the december 2005 edition of DirectX 9.0c ?

Could you correct that ?

And another member mentionned a newer release of MSN 7.5 ?

Could you correct that ?

And you include both .NET 1.1, and .NET 2.0 ?

What for ? .NET 2.0 is the latest one, so it is enough, no ? Remove .NET 1.1...

But, anyway, it seems that some upadates and powertoys and tools and softs require .NET 1.1, and even if .NET 2.0 is installed, they dont recognize it, and they refuse to install ! How strange ! Could someone explain me that ? And how to make these softs get installed even without .NET 1.1 (because .NET 2.0 is already installed !) ?

You include both MSN Messenger + Windows Messenger : what for ? It is confusing, no ? The latest and best one is MSN, not Windows, so why dont you remove Windows one ?

Thanks.

PS : When a release in French Localized Version ? Could I do it myself ? What kind of skills it requires, and how long to do the translation, and also, where from to exchange the English Updates, with localized French Updates (is it possible ?) ?

Hi.

I desperatly await for an autopatcher-like full version for Windows 98 SE only !...

Would it be possible ?

Or I dream too much ???

Where to find such a cool thing ?

Because :

Windows 98 SE is still supported by Microsoft, and Windows Update still works for it !

But, only until June 2006 !!!

So, could you imagine, that from June 2006, there will be no more other updates for 98SE, than only from an autopatcher full edition ?

That's why I would highly suggest a release of such an autopatcher for Win98SE, from June 2006, because it will be the last ressource to keep this OS up to date, even after any re-install, after Microsoft stops updating it !

So, what do you think ?

Is it possible ?

I am free and ready to talk with you about to build such a tool you and me together, and we have time : it will be launched only after the limit date of June 2006.

Give me your feedback, please !

The 'full' release does grow bigger every month - but there is no 'full' version this month. The full versions don't need to be installed ontop of a previous release, in fact they SHOULDN'T.

Hi.

Are you really not going to release a full version neither in jan06

no

neither in feb06 ?

That's up to the team to decide, we;ll see how many updates there are next month to see if it warrants a new 'full' release.

I would like so much a next full version ! When ?

Maybe next month, if there are enough updates to warrant it.

And it seems you didnt included the december 2005 edition of DirectX 9.0c ?

Could you correct that ?

Such things aren't included in 'lite' or 'update' releases, only in 'full'; wait for the next 'full' package or create your own module for it :)

And another member mentionned a newer release of MSN 7.5 ?

Could you correct that ?

same as above

And you include both .NET 1.1, and .NET 2.0 ?

What for ? .NET 2.0 is the latest one, so it is enough, no ? Remove .NET 1.1...

But, anyway, it seems that some upadates and powertoys and tools and softs require .NET 1.1, and even if .NET 2.0 is installed, they dont recognize it, and they refuse to install ! How strange ! Could someone explain me that ? And how to make these softs get installed even without .NET 1.1 (because .NET 2.0 is already installed !) ?

the .NET framework versions 1.1 and 2.0 are separate programs

You include both MSN Messenger + Windows Messenger : what for ? It is confusing, no ? The latest and best one is MSN, not Windows, so why dont you remove Windows one ?

Same reason as the .NET framework :)

I'm afraid this has been suggested before, but cannot be done due to technical reasons beyon our control. One of which being the fact that a reboot is required after every update is applied.

Do you mean .NET 2.0 is not backward compatible with .NET 1.1 ?

2.0 does not include 1.1 ?

So, we should install both on our systems ?

Even in 98 or 2000 or XP ?

There is something I dont get it...

AUTOPATCHER FOR WIN98SE :

I'm afraid this has been suggested before, but cannot be done due to technical reasons beyon our control. One of which being the fact that a reboot is required after every update is applied.

Look at Windows Update : first it downloads all updates in a temp folder named "WU", and then it installs automatically everything with only 1 reboot ! And then the "WU" folder is emptied !

How can they do such a thing with 98SE : only 1 reboot ?

Couldnt we do the same ?

Otherwise we could build a script that decompress all the updates in a TEMP folder + 1 script that will lauches all the updates in the right order, and by forcing windows to reboot after each update, and then by putting a shortcut in the startup folder, at each reboot windows will continue the script, and the script will keep a track on a temp log file about what update has been installed and what is next to install. After finishing, the script delete the shortcut from the startup, and delete the TEMP folder, and delete itself.

So, then, what do think about that ?

I can tell you that I have already done such a script a few years ago for WinNT, to automatically patch it and setup many tools, from a cd, and my cd was doing everything : deleting the partitions, rebuilding the partitions, formating them, installing the OS (without SP4), and then with a .REG included in my msbatch.inf, I was automatically updating to SP4, from my cd, and before installing the OS, I was checking the NIC PCI CODE under DOS, and I was copying in the WINNT_004 TEMP Install folder the correct folder with the correct driver for the correct NIC that was there, and then just before launching the setup, I was merging the correct text lines to my msbatch.inf, so that the setup automatically installs the correct NIC driver, and also with an IP address, and after installation was finished, I was putting a shortcut to a script stored in my CD in the startup, and all the Updates + Tools + Settings Process was launched automatically, including managing many reboots, after having set an automatic logon of "administrator", and even accessing a network server, for copying some files customized for every single pc, to install automatically a special certificate in IE, in a Java page that was really difficult to be scripted (but I found a way, yeah !) !!!

So, you see, maybe we could work about how to make such a Process to auto-update Win98SE, you and me ?

What do you think ?

Thanks.

Frederic Laroche.

There is an Unofficial Windows 98 SE Service Pack out there, which is updated quite regularly. Used it myself, pretty good. No reboot issue too (there is only one reboot at the end of the whole process).

hmm, well I'm not 100% sure on why it doesn't work, all I know is that it doesn't. Search this forum and you'll probably find more info.

The 'full' release does grow bigger every month - but there is no 'full' version this month. The full versions don't need to be installed ontop of a previous release, in fact they SHOULDN'T.

Thanx for the answer :)

And I'll use updates from now on unless it's on a fresh installation of Windows - sounds like that's best ;)
