AutoPatcher XP December 2006

[Jerry_R]

Thanks for this guys, keep up the good work :D

^ dotnet 2 has been replaced by dotnet 3! note that dotnet 3 is just a copy of dotnet 2 packed up with a load of extra components, so theres no point in having dotnet 2 as well, and also note that you need to install dotnet 2 updates on top of it! maybe i should add a note about this in the new pinned 'releases' thread...

Oops sorry, just read that now.

Also ...

Hmmm ... can't edit my last post ...

Just wanted to say that the COM+ Hotfix Rollup 13 [KB912817] has been replaced by COM+ Hotfix Rollup 14 [KB922668] and this fixes problems with it installing on dual core machines.

That's not really how things work, just to let you know. Us mirrors can usually take the load of distributing the files without resorting to using free services, but thanks!

I personally find that Rapidshare is twice as fast as any of the other web mirrors so i just thought there may be other people who find the same is true, especially it your a premium user!

seeing as my mirror has never been maxed out i think the web mirrors are fine :) the rapidshare "rule" was created due to some people putting up "mirrors" with ads that just used rapidshare, anyway who wants to use a site which makes you wait to download? :p

and finally, patch is on my mirror as well now :)

[GeekyNerd]

What's the procedure with applying "theFix" ?

i.e. AP_ XP _Nov Full Installed . AP_ XP _Dec Update & "Fix" downloaded , In what sequence do I apply the two ?

Thanks , and Merry Xmas to all :)

@GeekyNerd, install the dec update then the fix

[GeekyNerd]

Thanks for your quick reply theblazingangel , much appreciated . Thought it relevant to ask , did some searches firstly with no luck .

Cheers Dude ;)

I noticed in Recommended Updates that KB891122: Update for DRM-enabled Media Players... is not included in the December release as it was in the November Release. Not that I would apply this patch but just curious.. Also noticed KB918766 not present in December Release (Possibly replaced by KB923694?).. These assumptions are based on the List provided.. (have not implemented AutoPatcher as of yet)

^ read the changelog in the translation packs thread, they were both removed in this release. if i remember correctly, 891122 wasnt for wmp11, and i guess 918766 must have been replaced by something, can't tell you what from off the top of my head.

[ColdinCan]

^ Thanks for the info - did not know where to look for the changes. Righteous!

Any one with a premium account doesn't have to wait at all!

Also None of the web mirrors max out my connection and rapidshare links always do.

I can download nearly twice as fast from rapidshare, and judging by the number of downloads im

getting form the mirror there are plenty of people who prefer to use rapidshare!

[Rappy Veteran]

Thanks I havent got one of these before and seeing as I formatted twice in last 2 months then its good to have stored away :)

Having some problems with KB925486 on my one machine ... running the exe alone states it's not for this version of internet explorer with IE7 installed.

Also the Windows Rights Management seems to have the wrong command line? Only installs when run in GUI mode for me (ie manually.)

i've always maxed out my 10mbit from my mirror even during the hight of a release so either you've not tried mine, lieing or something is wrong your end :p

The correct command line for KB917275 (WRM) should contain the switches "-override 1 /I /quiet". Perhaps another fix to come?

It probably is something on my end or with my isp :(

• KB926247: Security Update for Windows XP
  

KB926247 This update will only install on systems where the optional SNMP component is installed, it is normal behaviour for the update to fail on most systems!

I have a question to ask, this update failed on my system as I don't have the SNMP component installed. How can I exclude this update from the Autopatcher list everytime then? Will be 'fixed' in the next release as it will only shown if SNMP component exist in the system? :unsure:

@vearn27, theres no way with AP5.1 for me to detect whether you have SNMP installed, so theres no way to hide it when you don't need it. perhaps AP6 whenever its finished will have some way to do it.

[Famicon]

Thanks for the update AP team. Keep up the good work! :)

So yeah...after I updated my PC, I rebooted my system and found that the command line promt was running automatically by itself - it appeared briefly and it said something like "Windows Script" before shutting down [by itself] . Has this happened to anybody else? Or is it just me?

Yeah, that happened to me yesterday. I think it has to do with Windows Script 5.6 because when I ran AP again after rebooting, it will checked. For some reason it did not get installed on the first pass. :unsure:

Well If you don't plan on using SNMP component then just delete the the module for KB926247 and it wont show up. :D

That is what I did.

[+theblazingangel MVC]

^ if your deleting modules then be careful to make sure parts of the module don't creep back in with newer update releases! sometimes i may include new copies of the .amc and .lst files to fix a bug, you'd then have a broken module (the setup file wouldn't be included in the update release unless that had been updated with a newer version). also note that occasionally i do fix minor things like adjusting priorities/names that aren't important enough to mention in the changelogs.
