Updated v1.1

[just_laze]

Hey,

I've yet to try it, but the updater is exactly what I've been looking for, so thank you very much.

laze.

[ricktendo]

Sorry to inform you just_laze that it does not work right...

Everytime WinDefender updates itself the folder name with the updated files changes

[just_laze]

Hey,

Nevermind? Is there no way to predict the folder name? Can I edit your *.cmd file with the correct folder name before I run it?

laze.

[ricktendo]

Yep you can edit the cmd and it will work then...

Do you know any way around this? is there a variable or something I can use?

This is my first cmd file

[just_laze]

Hey,

Sorry - I don't.

Actually I'm going to have to ask you where the definitions are stored? As there are no additional folders within the Windows Defender folder.

laze.

[ricktendo]

There in

%AllUsersProfile%\Application Data\Microsoft\Windows Defender\Definition Updates\{XXXXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXXXXX}

The X is to represent a number

%AllUsersProfile% = X:\Documents and Settings\All Users

[just_laze]

Hey,

I think this is the best idea, suggest your users do a find and replace. There are only two instances of the folder name in your *.cmd file.

laze.

Or I could just update the cmd file everytime an update comes out...

But I dont think its the same for each uses, I think windows generates the folder name randomly

[just_laze]

Hey,

Would it be possible to prompt the user to enter the folder name where their definitions are located, store this as a variable and use it in your batch file.

windows defender/deffoldername$

Something like that?

laze.

[ricktendo]

Great Idea

[just_laze]

Yes - but is it possible? :-)

Maybe you can store it in a text file?

laze.

Hey ricktendo64

Do you know if this will work with your MCE2005 Transformation Pack ?

I will give it a try and let you know.

Thanks

[ricktendo]

No reason it shouldn't work in a XP with the MCE addon, but this addon is pretty old...the runonceex side of it has been improoved if you look at my spanish Windows Defender addon updater/builder
