For some time my main Win2000 system will not accept this patch. Autopatcher runs is (seemingly successfully), and then when I open Autopatcher again, it's still marked as needed.I'm building up a new box, and I'm running into the same problem. The log for the patch just repeats a message like the following for every run:

0.020: ================================================================================0.020: 2007/07/27 00:09:56.313 (local)0.020: c:845df7b025290c39c\update\update.exe (version 6.2.29.0)0.020: Hotfix started with following command line: /quiet /norestart /overwriteoem 0.020:  Exec Prereq.CheckReg: Result ValueName RemInst Not Found For Key Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\SetUp\OC Manager\Subcomponents0.020: Condition Check for Line 1 of PreRequisite returned FALSE 0.030: ReadStringFromInf: UpdSpGetLineText failed: 0xe00001020.030: KB926121 Setup encountered an error:  Setup cannot continue because one or more prerequisites required to install KB926121 failed.

Can someone give me an idea of what I should try to do to solve this?Thanks!Sorry... Forgot to mention that I am running May07 core updated up through Jul07 update.

if the installer is quiting because a prerequisite check is failing it's because your system does not require the update. this could mean that RIS (the component it updates) is actually an optional component and isn't installed on your machine. that would mean that we need to add detection for the component into the module so autopatcher only displays it for machines that have the component installed. the problem is what the detection needs to be, and for that we need someone with a machine with RIS installed to be able to identify a file belonging to the component that we can use.

i suggest you ignore this update!

    • You know, there needs to be some sort of regulatio... oh wait..
    • I mean, it's fairly self explanatory isn't it? It's part of the reason Apple don't include all features on all supported devices with new iOS releases (another reason is probably a subtle nudge to upgrade sooner), but there's a balance between the remaining features that are added and the impact on performance/battery life on those older devices. There certainly have been times when devices have really received a practical (performance/battery life) quality of life improvement via a software update, but like absolutely every damn app update log out there currently, "Performance and Security improvements" basically mean nothing of real world impacts these days. Just what I've seen of this new interface, the rendering of that glass effect would surely be more complex and intensive than the previous transparency effects, there's no way they couldn't be more efficient. It's probably quite a small impact, otherwise they wouldn't be releasing it, but it all has an impact. Even Microsoft backtracked from Acrylic to Mica material, which is prerendered blur of the wallpaper. All the Acrylic material is rendered live, so has a greater impact, hence why Windows 11 use the newer, lower impact Mica material as their base material.
    • This is the reason Microsoft stepped away from Aero for a more subtler transparency. Apple I believe had the perfect balance of transparency and readability, but not with this redesign in its current form. As for people who believe Windows has an 8-bit interface, well, at least you can read stuff.
    • who ever thought this looked good needs to rethink their design credentials.....
