The SP2 Thread - Reloaded


Recommended Posts

I dont think thats a bug. Go to folder options, select the file types tab. Now select the type of file that it happens on, click on advanced and check confirm open after download. That should fix it :)

These are beta updates to test out the DELTA Patching feature of MSI 3.0 that is included in SP2 Beta.

where the express installation save the downloaded files????

It saved it on my C:\74420d49bcbdc5d4013ed178f8 folder.

Seems like the folder name was randomly generated.

The folder was deleted afte installation was complete.

If you are having trouble with patching the uxtheme.dll use this program.

Replacer

Replacer is an easy to use system file replacer for 2K/XP. It is used to replace protected or in use system files without any hassle. Replacer will also make a backup of the system file before replacing. No need to kill explorer, no need to clear any Windows File Protection messages, no need to go into the DllCache or ServicePackFiles, and no need to reboot (a logoff will usually suffice).
