Re: Autopatcher v6.2
Reminds me to put that detection in for running in admin mode or not, also the ocx detection. Should have that done today.
Re: Autopatcher v6.2
New version attached... just the exe. This one is also special compiled for DJ so it will be a bit slower doing MD5 checks.
New to this version: 6.2.15
Checks for ADMIN rights... if its run with admin rights it will say ! ADMIN ! in the title (will warn you when you go to install screen if you did NOT run as admin)
It will also check if your OCX files are installed and TRY to install them if not. (it used to look for the files in your system directory every time it was run before. Problem is just because the files were there... that didn't mean they were registered. Now we will know if they are.)
New switch to skip to install screen... /skiptoinstall

The admin warning trips as expected, but when I run it as admin, it's getting stuck at the "You are missing OCX files..." message and just keeps repeating it whenever I click OK. Whether I click OK or X, it just refreshes the message popup. I have to kill it through TaskManager.
6209 runs correctly with Admin rights from the same point.
Re: Autopatcher v6.2
hmmm... Does the log say anything interesting?

Starting Autopatcher From C:\Users\x\Desktop\AutoPatcher-v6_2_14-111016
Checking if OCX Files are registered.
You are missing OCX Files that need to be installed.
This is normal for a first run. If this is not your first run contact the Autopatche.net.
We will attempt to copy the needed files and register them.
Error Detected: Object variable or With block variable not set in APInitialize.dllSelfRegister At Line 0
and just repeats after that.
Re: Autopatcher v6.2
ok so I went to check that location in the code and guess what... I lost all of today's work. I was transferring everything to a new HD and it transferred over seemingly fine. Games worked, other things looked fine... I wiped old drive. I happened to be using the VM when I was doing the copy. It did NOT save the changed state files. So... ya. I have to redo the code tomorrow for the changes I did today.
