Download AutoPatcher XP 4.5.12

Installing Windows XP fresh means even with a thick pipe to the Internet that one will be connected to the Windows Update site for a long time. Due to the many reboots, this is not only annoying, but nowadays also not entirely without risk. There are a number of security issues that can infect your PC if you are only connected to the Internet. AutoPatcher XP is the answer to these problems. Depending on the installation that one chooses, it contains in any case: all downloads from the Windows Update site, namely all critical and recommended updates, and the optional Windows components. In addition, AutoPatcher XP includes 35 bonus features, 60 registry tweaks, and patches for Internet Explorer and Outlook Express.

During the installation you can indicate exactly which components you do and which you do not want to install. AutoPatcher recognizes which patches are already in place so that nothing is duplicated. After the program has done its job, it closes with a reboot, the only one in the whole process. AutoPatcher XP only works with an English version of Windows XP and Service Pack 1 must already be installed. The changelog of version 4.5.12 looks like this:
