How to use Preware to install a patch not on Preware?

roho85 · 09/04/2011, 12:15 PM

Hello,

I found a patch (http://forums.precentral.net/hp-touc...ml#post3069674) that would allow me to make the Advanced Browser my default browser. It says I need to install the patch using preware, but I cannot figure out how to get preware to recognize the patch. I have the file in my boxnet folder and ran a search through preware. It goes through all the proper folders but won't recognize the file "Advanced_Browser_Default.patch". Any suggestions? Thanks.

without preware, you need Quick Install from Canuck Coding

How do I use Quick Install to install the patch I mentioned? It is not located in the options for the Patches tab in Quick Install. Thanks.

. Also, in Quick Install besides using 'File' pull down to add a file...
there is another neat feature - you can just "drag & drop" a file into the main screen's 'install' box...

In addition, you can use Internalz Pro
