akaladis Veteran Posted April 26, 2005 Author Veteran Share Posted April 26, 2005 Messenger Plus! was never installed with the sponsor when installed via AutoPatcher. And since some people keep reporting this, I decided it's best to clear any doubts by removing Messenger Plus! from AutoPatcher.

+theblazingangel MVC Posted April 26, 2005 MVC Share Posted April 26, 2005 so i have to remove the old version of autpatcher and then install the april full patch? how do i uninstall the autopatcher app and all the items it updated?? 585833671[/snapback] yes, to remove, just delete the c:\program files\autopatcher folder. remember: - if a new release has "update" in the title, apply it on top of the previous release. eg the feb release was an update to the jan release. - if it doesnt have "update" in the title, remove the old copy before installing the new release.

DaFlapDrol Posted May 3, 2005 Share Posted May 3, 2005 In the latest version of Autopatcher (April) I missed the Dutch license agreement, why?????????

DaFlapDrol Posted May 3, 2005 Share Posted May 3, 2005 Maybe i am an idiot but why does this not install everything i choose ?? even when i run it with a command prompt(no option to choose what to install) there are many things not installed. Why is this?? or is it just me? 585826353[/snapback] Can you give an example about the module you selected and wanted to install? :ninja: Pascal B :ninja: Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/299731-autopatcher-xp-may-2005/page/8/#findComment-585865499 Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaFlapDrol Posted May 3, 2005 Share Posted May 3, 2005 I saw a few messages about the install problems with The Microsoft Framework "Modules". This depens on the order that Autopatcher will load them. Depending on name (display order) and the Priority value in the Module....... I'm still focused on that one.... Besides that, Autopatcher doesn't scan for a valua in the registry, if the modules couldn't be installed......the valua that Autopatcher uses to scan is created. Sop, autopatcher would say that's installed. Using SUS or WUS, it isn't installed. Possible to make a scan-engine only in autopatcher??????? No adds to the registry?? For all KB based and MS related software updates or patches. Could be helpfull :D :ninja: Pascal B :ninja: Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/299731-autopatcher-xp-may-2005/page/8/#findComment-585866053 Share on other sites More sharing options...

+theblazingangel MVC Posted May 3, 2005 MVC Share Posted May 3, 2005 ^^ 1) (first post) a lot of modules require AP to add the registry entry so they can be detected. it may be possible to have a switch that could be used with MS update modules that would prevent it being added, thats one solution. However you would have to keep loading AP until all updates have been applied. My solution, which ive sent to raptor, requires you use the reboot="true" flag in the upcomming prerequisit field. If any modules with the flag are selected for install, AP will calculate when to install them from relation to parent modules - whether any of them also have the flag, and whether any are installed already. If from the calculations any need installing post-reboot, after a reboot a window will popup showing progress of the installation, and once all is done it will display the completion. That way you never have to go back and check anything, your initial selection is all you have to do. 2) (second post) there is only one copy of AP now, there is no version for XP, just releases for XP that contain modules for XP. The \win9xnt directory is for people running AP on a Windows 9x or NT machine who need to install a couple of components in order for AP to work.

Hmm...let me see.....Thanks for the explenation! I'm working on the Dutch version of autopatcher. This one will not work on any other system unless Windows XP Professional is installed with SP2 (DUTCH). I've found a way to install the Modules for Framework at once. Infact it's very simple. Just a batchfile. Don't know why Autopatcher can't handle a batch file or Windows NT script-file. Just like the old "piping" command isn't working within Autopatcher. It this could be done, it all will be easy to fix all in no time! :ninja: Pascal B :ninja: Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/299731-autopatcher-xp-may-2005/page/8/#findComment-585866247 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Small programs like msn messenger are useful to a lot of people and so are slipped in, however large things like firefox will probably never be included. You can always make your own modules if you really wanted, we can encrypt them for you and you can then post them on the 'individual modules' thread. (i believe rtk has already done one for ff though).
