JoHideo Posted March 7, 2004 Share Posted March 7, 2004 What file can I take from my January update that'll let AXP know which updates have already been installed and to not install them again? Also, where to put that file? Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/146452-autopatcher-xp-45-official-thread/page/2/#findComment-1807255 Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you already ran the January, when this box comes up on the Feb: Check them both, and it will automatically deselect the entries. :) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/146452-autopatcher-xp-45-official-thread/page/2/#findComment-1807279 Share on other sites More sharing options...
xplatinum Posted March 7, 2004 Share Posted March 7, 2004 Quick question regarding BitTorrent. How do I stop my download and only upload ? (ABC client) // edit : I didn't get it from Bit Torrent, is there still a way to share it on BT ? (uploading at 80k/s atm) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/146452-autopatcher-xp-45-official-thread/page/2/#findComment-1807294 Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoHideo Posted March 7, 2004 Share Posted March 7, 2004 I put my January update in my recycle bin though...guess I shouldn't have. If I restore the January update back, should I just extract the Feb over the Jan?

Just run the feb and check both those boxes. :) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/146452-autopatcher-xp-45-official-thread/page/2/#findComment-1807324 Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoHideo Posted March 7, 2004 Share Posted March 7, 2004 Well I did run the January update before and ran the February update now, but no such box came up. Does it come after you select what you want updated? Could you possibly tell me where this log file is supposed to be?

Do me a favor... see if you have an apinstall.log in your C:\Windows folder... or an ap_log.txt... or really anything that says AP anything.

JoHideo Posted March 7, 2004 Share Posted March 7, 2004 No such files. Looked in the Windows folder and then also ran a search on both of them just to make sure, but nothing came up.

How odd! :blink: It appears your Jan Update didn't log that it was run, so there's nothing for the Feb Release to read from.

JoHideo Posted March 7, 2004 Share Posted March 7, 2004 I searched for just ap and found apxp_dbdump.log and apxp_log.log which seemed to quite big text files of 72kb and 202 kb respectively in my windows/system32 folder.

You can try putting them in you C:\Windows folder and see if that helps. :/ Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/146452-autopatcher-xp-45-official-thread/page/2/#findComment-1807450 Share on other sites More sharing options...

StAnGeR04 Posted March 7, 2004 Share Posted March 7, 2004 can the full version take the place of the January update? or do I have that backwards?

Mainly because: Auto Updates doesn't pull Recommended Updates, only Critical. Auto Updates doesn't install DX9,WMP9, .Net, etc. Auto Updates requires a net connection, this can be burnt to a CD and installed anywhere. AutoPatcher has tweaks and other common programs like Flash and Java, that Auto Updates doesn't have. There's more, but that's plenty. :D @StAnGeR04 - Yep, you are correct.

JoHideo Posted March 7, 2004 Share Posted March 7, 2004 Nope, putting them in my Windows folder did nothing for that. Can someone that uses AXP alone to patch their system just send me their January log file so I don't have to install all the updates I've already installed?

You're boned. :( Sorry mate, looks like for some reason it's not reading them. Just have it detect your registry, and the brightside is, if it repatches something, it won't harm it.

JoHideo Posted March 7, 2004 Share Posted March 7, 2004 That's the problem. It doesn't come up with that box at all so I can't even have it detect my registry. I'm not sure, but it looks like this may be a bug.
