Autopatcher v6.2

[TheAPGuy]

I also will let it be known that this version also has the extra "hide" code enabled in it however, its not complete and may have unpredictable results. It does not hide things per say, it "should" gray out. It won't tell you why though and it does not hide via CPU type yet.

[Whatacrock]

Works nicely but a small comment regarding the "gray out", this could lead to some confusion as users add more releases to their autopatcher. Leave it in your capable hands..no further comment

[TheAPGuy]

Exactly what I thought. That is why I will add the checkbox that enables/disables the gray out.

Next Version: Not Done yet.
Current changes:
~ Fixed a bug that you would not notice unless wildly clicking around the install section. Affected all versions of AP.
~ Fixed missing total download estimation Speed/timer. I honestly didn't even notice it until now and no one said anything... looks like its been missing for a few versions.
+ Sub items of grayed out items will auto gray out even if the detections don't ask for it to do so.
~ Huh you were able to select grayed out items by selecting the ungrayed out parent. Fixed.

Hello I encountered a problem with the beta attached the log for you, Thank You great program

[Whatacrock]

@Zappy -- someone else also had problems with autopatcher (similar errors to yours) and if my memory serves me correctly it was due to spaces and/or special characters in the file path, I may be wrong of course and ViroMan will let us know for certainty..

[TheAPGuy]

Spaces are fine. Special characters are fine as well... to a point. Its the non-english character sets that upset it.

From reading the log it seems your having intermittent connection issues. You at least got the main list however were unable to get anything else.

Return code: 6. Description: Couldn't resolve host. The given remote host was not resolved. <-- DNS issues
Return code: 7. Description: Failed to connect to host. <-- Got IP address from DNS, couldn't contact host

Are you using a proxy? Have you set up your firewall to allow AP? Remember it is a different version of AP so you would have to configure the FW to allow it. Also... try downloading smaller amounts at a time. Even though I have fixed it... you can try and see if that solves anything.

I've tried both Apup latest and Autopatcher v6 Beta.

I get the following error:

What AutoPatcher was trying to do
It appears that the error occured while AutoPatcher was trying to read ini file.
Where: Initilization.dllSelfRegister() At Line 142
Error Code: 0x153: Component 'MSCOMCTL.OCX' or one of its dependencies not correctly registered: a file is missing or invalid

I've researched just about every website out there and registered all the *.ocx files in the \bin folder manually. I don't know what else to try.

I don't have any problems running from the Win 7 64bit Notebook.

[TheAPGuy]

Well the program is supposed to take care of that for you. It seems like you may not be able to register the ocx.

Try this...

1. Find MSCOMCTL.OCX in your windows install somewhere (I can't tell you where it is for sure since I don't have win8)
2. Go HERE to find out how to run CMD line if you don't already. It also gives an example of registering and un-registering DLL files. Same thing for this situation.
3. Un-register MSCOMCTL.OCX in the windows folder.
4. Re-Register it.

Run apup or AP and see if it works. Also... do a search for *.ocx and tell me where you find the majority of them. If MSCOMCTL.ocx is not with the majority of them then that could be an issue as well.

[butterfly68za]

I did a search for all instances of MSCOMCTL.ocx and found in the following locations on the Win 8 desktop, which I un-registered both:

C:\AutoPatcher\bin\MSCOMCTL.ocx
C:\Windows\SysWOW64\MSCOMCTL.ocx

I did not re-register any of them and proceeded to run AutoPatcher again. AutoPatcher is now running without any errors.
As an exercise I went and re-registered the MSCOMCTL.ocx in the C:\Windows\SysWOW64\ folder and AutoPatcher is still running without any errors.

Thank you for your time and efforts for a very useful Application!
