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?

@Angelico_Payne

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.

    • I have never been a huge fan of libre, it feels really good but exactly when you need an advance feature for data wrangling it falls short every time or has bugs. I am all for euro office if they can deliver a good and usable alternative to MS office with backing of govt function.
    • Go on, I'll bite. How does windows (nice comment on an 'article' which doesn't actually involve it ) lock users out of their data then? Been using it since 3.1 back in 92 and not once have I been locked out of my data? Perhaps you mean Bitlocker? In which case the average user (who doesn't mess about) will have been forced to use a MSA, and in which case the recovery key would have been saved to said account..... If the user did happen to bodge around and not use an MSA then Bitlocker wouldn't have become live (as it cannot without a safe place to store the key) I want to point out Bitlocker and MSA are not connected and you can of course force it on without a safe place to store the key, but you do that with your eyes open. So your standard consumer who knows no better sets up an MSA, gets bitlocker and a recovery key stored off box, with a route to reset their password. All of this notwithstanding the fact, if your data is important, you back it up, no ifs, no buts, no-ones responsibility other than your own. Important data lives in at least two locations, one of which is offline and recovery is tested, otherwise that data wasn't really that important. Disks, fail, laptops get lost, phones end up down the toilet, tablets get stolen, if your only copy of data is on a single device you're doing it wrong.
    • Clearly that feature isn't for us. It's for the ad spam marketers so they can more directly target us about going to places we might want to go again...but without understanding context clues. Like for the flight someone took for a friend's funeral. We want to be reminded of that every time we open an app, a browser, or email, right? Right, Siri?
    • Is your Apple Watch supported? Check the watchOS 27 compatibility list by Aditya Tiwari Apple kicked off WWDC 2026 with a ton of announcements, mostly centered around Apple Intelligence improvements, the Siri AI, and Liquid Glass updates. However, there is a lot of other stuff that couldn't catch the limelight. Let's talk about watchOS 27 and which models are supported by the newest operating system. According to the Cupertino giant, watchOS 27 will be supported on the following Apple Watch models when it arrives later this year: Apple Watch Ultra 3 Apple Watch Series 11 Apple Watch SE 3 Apple Watch Series 10 Apple Watch Ultra 2 It's a stark contrast with last year's watchOS 26 update, which had almost a dozen Apple Watch models in its list of supported devices. Apple supported models all the way back to Apple Watch Series 6. That said, if you own one of the five models, you'll need an iPhone 11 (or later) with iOS 27 to install the latest update. Yes, Apple has shown some extra love to the iPhone 11, and it old horse supports the iOS 27 update. watchOS 27 beta 1 is now available for developers and interested power users through the Apple Developer Program. So, if you're among those who like to play with fire, you can download it to your supported Apple Watch. Otherwise, the public beta for watchOS 27 will be available next month. The freshly baked Apple Watch update comes with Siri AI - an advanced, fully conversational version of Siri powered by Apple Intelligence due for later this year. A new dynamic app grid features icons for five Siri-suggested apps. You can use a new tap gesture to open a widget in the Smart Stack, and a new Find My app finally clears the mess of Find Devices, Find Items, and Find People on Apple Watch. Workout Buddy can run without an iPhone nearby and offers new insights based on data, including your progress for pace, distance, and workout duration. Apple improved its motion tracking algorithms to measure the distance of indoor treadmill runs and walks more precisely. Speaking of other changes, the music playback on watchOS 27 starts faster and you can create custom passes for any membership or card that uses a QR code or barcode, then easily access them in the Wallet app or pin in the Smart Stack.
    • "and pull old flight details from your email during back-and-forth conversations" The Siri I've become to know and trust. I've always wanted to pull info on old flights. /s
