AutoPatcher Forum

Have finally gotten around to updating the Windows XP x64 Test script.
Changes have been made, have uploaded to my dropbox so any braves out there wishing to give it a whirl the link to it is attached to the posting.

Same instructions as per Windows XP x86 Test Script...download the archive,extract to your apup folder(or backup) and execute..

Please remember to make a backup of your apup/autopatcher before running this......no responsibility on my part if advise not adhered to.
Also remember to report any errors so that admendments can be made for the benefit of others.

Enjoy peoples.

Downloaded new batch file > XP Pro x64 w/SP2 > Autopatcher

Top item: Windows XP x64 & 2003 x64 > all three items listed below were black and no boxes had a blue dot. Expanded all three and all items as expected - all blue excpet for two previously reported black items - PowerShell and KB924667-v2

Windows Xp x64 has been updated to December 2012. Uploaded to my dropbox location.
Please use the archive file from post #81 to download.
By now you all know the drill so please report any errors.

A late note to be aware of : Update for Windows (KB2779562)
Description:
Install this update to resolve issues caused by revised daylight saving time and time zone laws in several countries. This update enables your computer to automatically adjust the computer clock on the correct date in 2012. After you install this item, you may have to restart your computer. This update may not apply to you therefore not needed to install

as long as you didn't make it critical it won't be auto selected.

It's in Non Critical and recommended not marked (left blank)..

hmm... doesn't look like domenico has come through for us.

that's the way the cookie crumbles I'm afraid

Finally chatted with dkdk_it and he has been away from home for the last 3 days and only returned today.

Reason for edit:: Attack of the grammer nazi

XP Pro x64 w/SP2

AutoPatcher > Microsoft Windows - Updated Components > check mark in box: Windows Update agent v7.4.7600.229 test - 64-bit
problem because Microsoft Windows - Common Files has check mark in box: Windows Update Agent v7.4.7600.243 (x64)
seems to me this is redundent - why both? and why in different places? and listing should be the same in both places; i.e. 64-bit versus (x64) - pick one and stay with it.

Everything else looks ok.

@DesertJerry--- have checked through XP x64 script and I have no reference to Windows Update Agent listed.
Since you seem to have 2 references and one is older than the other it means you have a rogue file in your midst.
A suggestion is to download ViroMan's Sweeper application, and run it in test mode...this will produce a log containing the files that should be removed....upon that recommendation delete the rogue files and recheck your AP.

Please report back once you have done this

Ran Sweeper - appears that issue is resolved.

That's what its for removing extra files.

Script has been updated and can be downloaded from releases2.list.
Script dated 20121230

Edited APUP.INI to dowload RELEASES2.LIST - things look OK now.

Glad to hear that DesertJerry..

By the way HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

well... you didn't have to edit the ini... but ok. lol If your using the new 1.4.2 version of apup(which it sounds like you are) then just open options and put a 2 in the url. lol.
