Download apupxxx.zip (AutoPatcher Updater) - you can find it Here!

Extract apupxxx.zip to your drive -> C:\ -> this will create C:\apup

Run apup.exe, make sure the selections are correct. Also, DO NOT select multiple OSs in one run! Let's assume you want XP SP3 x86.
Make sure these 3 are selected - they should be by default:
...AutoPatcher Updater - (apup.exe related files)
...AutoPatcher Engine - (autopatcher.exe related files)
...Windows XP SP3 x86 (the native (installed) OS will be selected, change if another OS is wanted, but do not select more than one OS).

The reason for this is an apparent 4GB download limit per run with APUP - avoid selecting everything all at once is the point. If you want Vista, run APUP a second time, select Vista (this will add Vista to the remembered selections). When you run APUP from now on, you will only be updating the releases not downloading from scratch. If you want to add 7, run APUP, select 7, again, since XP and Vista should only be updates 7 will be the only from scratch release, this should not be a problem. You might look at this as incrementally building your AutoPatcher package structure.

Note: APUP can remember the selections via the Options tab. Make your selections - click Options - check Remember Selections - click OK.

Download the release by clicking Next - when the download completes click Finish.

Note: It is a good idea to create a log file when running APUP -> Creating & Posting Logs and Logs - More Info!. Also, you can dbl-click the 'hit_this...cmd' file to run APUP w/ logging.

Note: Spoiler code has replaced 'codebox' for log files. This is the code - [ spoiler] = log = file = here = [/spoiler ] - bring together the brackets to create...

Spoiler

= log = file = here =
