I'm warning everyone about the dangers of AutoPatcher before they consider downloading it. After downloading it some time ago, I accidentally allowed it to change my Windows search companion to the old Windows 2000 version, which is totally useless. Now, there is no option to get my WinXP Search Companion back, (dog included) and I'm tragically stuck with one i don't want. The owners of AutoPatcher DO NOT provide any method of support or undoing changes.

you know, it's funny when someone that do things without think come here to blame us because his own lack of care. the tweaks are in there for those that knows what are doing, not for noobs. you could ask about how autopatcher works before say bullshits like "The owners of AutoPatcher DO NOT provide any method of support or undoing changes.". do you have read about autopatcher works? no. do you have asked us how autopatcher works? no. how i know that? easy. if instead blame us because your own lack of care, you could ask how undo things. and there's an undo for it. just select the module and right-click it. this image is in my own language, but you can see it in your own or i can take another one, from my enu vm:

or, straight to registry:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[-HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\CabinetState]


[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\AutoPatcher\Tweaks\Appearance]
"oldsearchon"=-

now please, read before start shooting
