Hmmm....perharps i.ve to wait a lil bit longer for the torrent

Well I AM uploading, and as soon as it's finished downloading from devster's mirror, I'll have a 10mbit seed hooked up too :)

I installed the Feb Beta the other day so does that mean I need to download the Dec Full and the March Update for this to work??

Oh and Thank you guys :D

There is no update for the beta, yet.

Also, I'm pulling the zipfile. Uploading the file to another seed would take too long and render my net connection unusable... and because of the nature of compression, people wouldn'thave just been able to seed it straight off.

Tiny nit on applying updates:

NOTE: I have 4 partitions: Windows 98 on the C partition and Windows XP on the F partition. I did the following while running Windows XP on the F partition.

(1) I installed full December XP 2006 into default directory F:\Program Files\Autopatcher.

(2) I installed February XP 2006 into default directory F:\Program Files\Autopatcher.

(3) I installed March XP 2006 and it failed giving me an error. It tried to install into C:\Program Files\Autopatcher which did not exist. Except, both Dec full and Feb update were able to discover that my Windows XP is working on the F partition and it should have defaulted to F.

December full and February update both found the F partition as the correct default, but the March update did not. Its easy to get around but should not have happened. A small nit!

Thanks for another gr8 update!

Hope there will be a full version soon, its been a few months since a full final has been out ;)

as I found out for myself this afterrnoon, transferring 250 meg files all over the place can be a pain in the arse.

After that experiance, I can see why Blaze and the rest of the team want to keep the update releases pumping out.

@cbosdell

i move tweaks into sub folders, the update installer should delete the tweaks directory before unpacking the tweaks into there new locations. perhaps for some reason the deletetion didnt occur, which is a problem because deletetion rules are common in update releases to remove redundant files after a replacement, rename, or redundancy.

if this is the case you will have a large number of tweaks in c:\program files\autopatcher\modules\tweaks, as well as in the new subfolders.

please report back to me whether this is the case.

thanks. I deleted all of the folders and files that were old and it works again :)

Thank You! Thank You! Thank You!

Hey I just downloaded AutoPatcher_XP_Mar06_ENU_Update.exe

When I start is there're 2 options and I can't install without previous AP installed...

I'm confused.

I want to make a march full using december full + jan,feb,march updates.

How do I do that?

the new page:

installing bits of modules not included originally in a lite release, onto a lite release, are shown in the page - ap crashing, mods that dont work or partially work, and wasted space. this new page is the solution to that problem, if such files are included in an update release, we can use this new page which allows alternative installation instructions to be run which skip extraction of those files. this will reduce the number of errors people see when using lite releases with update releases.

the warning:

the second thing you noticed - you get a warning when installing an update release to a folder where autopatcher.exe doesnt exist. this is because update releases are not designed to be used standalone, and this will hopefully help reduce the confusion for new users.

i dont recommend you use them as such, however, if you really want to, go ahead. note, youll need to download and install the ap standalone from the standalone modules thread first to get all the ap program files (not all included) and install over that.

theres a similar warning installing a full/lite release over a folder containing autopatcher.exe.

    • No updated SSD capacity, no updated specs (not surprised tbf), just nostalgia baiting! Bring back the boot sequence and the UI as an easter egg!

    • Microsoft confirms a new, useful Teams' app is coming very soon by Sayan Sen In the modern digital workspace meeting recordings and summaries are very commonplace, still finding the right recap later can be surprisingly difficult. To address that inconvenience Microsoft is working on a new dedicated meeting recap application designed to bring all meeting recaps into a single, centralized location. In a recent announcement on its Microsoft 365 roadmap website, the company has confirmed the new applet and has explained how the new experience will work and why it believes it can help users stay on top of discussions without having to search through multiple chats, calendars, or files. For those unfamiliar, meeting recaps provide a summary of key discussions, decisions, action items, and other relevant information generated after a meeting ends. They are intended to help participants revisit important points while also allowing those who missed the meeting to quickly catch up on what happened. Traditionally locating older recaps could require users to navigate through various conversations or meeting histories. The new meeting recap app aims to simplify that process by gathering all available recaps into one dedicated hub. According to Microsoft, this should make it easier to browse past meetings, review outcomes, and stay informed about ongoing projects and discussions. One notable feature of the applet is the addition of quick filters which are meant to allow users to instantly narrow down the list of available recaps and surface specific meetings without manually searching through extensive records. Audio recap is also there. If you're wondering how long these recaps will last before self-expiring, the app will provide access to meeting recaps from the past 30 days or approximately one month. You can view the feature entry here on the official Microsoft 365 (M365) website under roadmap ID 564614. Its rollout is set to begin this month (June 2026). Do keep in mind though that new feature rollouts often get delayed.
