Thanks for 30014...big improvement. Here are a couple things I found while testing: Black--- doesn't patch Task Mgr. at all. red--- has all of the task mgr problems mentioned earlier. neon blue--- reshacker error--- 9$s[2] and $F Also, there are reshacker errors with using the batch files with 30014. However I will have to get back to you on particulars...misplaced my notes with test results. The problems with red and neon may simply be because the resources have not been updated yet. I realize that none of these are critical problems, but in my experience, programmers want to know of every little bug; so you should get to decide what must be fixed. Thanks again, xptsp is a used on every new install I make. regards, rr650 I realize that when the GUI is done the batch files will no longer be needed. However, since xptsp 30014 still allows the use of batch files, I 'm including a report on the 4 batch I tested using the GUI: Black, neon, and red all have the same reshacker error mentioned above. Also, after compressing the files this pop-up appears: unable to read section "sysoc". when you click 'OK' xptxp closes. Green batch is not recognized at all by GUI. Hope there is something here that helps. regards, rr650
