 Automatic RDP Wrapper installer and updater // asmtron (07-09-2019)
 -------------------------------------------------------------------
 Options:
   -log        = redirect display output to the file autoupdate.log
   -taskadd    = add autorun of autoupdate.bat on startup in schedule task
   -taskremove = remove autorun of autoupdate.bat on startup in schedule task

 Info: 
   The autoupdater first use and check the official rdpwrap.ini.
   If a new termsrv.dll is not supported in the offical rdpwrap.ini,
   autoupdater first tries the asmtron rdpwrap.ini (disassembled and
   tested by asmtron). The autoupdater will also use rdpwrap.ini files
   of other contributors like the one of "saurav-biswas".
   Extra rdpwrap.ini sources can also be defined...

 INSTALL of RDP Wrapper and Autoupdater
 ======================================

 1. Copy the files from the archive "RDPWrap-v1.6.2.zip" (or newer) to the "%ProgramFiles%\RDP Wrapper" directory

    DO NOT use other location to install/extract the RDP Wrapper files.
    USE ONLY the "%ProgramFiles%\RDP Wrapper" directory (normally C:\Program Files\RDP Wrapper)


 2. Copy the files/folder from the archive "autoupdate-v07.09.2019.zip" (or newer) to the "%ProgramFiles%\RDP Wrapper" directory


 3. To enable autorun of autoupdate.bat on system startup, run the folling helper batch file as administrator:

    "%ProgramFiles%\RDP Wrapper\helper\autoupdate__enable_autorun_on_startup.bat"


 4. Set in your Antivirus/WindowsDefnder an exclusion on the folder "%ProgramFiles%\RDP Wrapper" to prevent the deletion of RDP Wrapper files


 5. Now you can use the autoupdate batch file to install and update the RDP Wrapper. Please run the folling autoupdate batch file as administrator:

   "%ProgramFiles%\RDP Wrapper\autoupdate.bat"

Thank you but I am getting Listener state: Not listening. Everything else seems supported and fine.

Important -> autoupdate.bat **bugfix!

1. bug: normal copy with admin right of the file "rdpwrap_new.ini" to "rdpwrap.ini" will not work properly (file locked)
2. fix: we need to stream the data line by line from "rdpwrap_new.ini" to "rdpwrap.ini"
3. add: listener check

With this bugfix autoupdate.bat works now as expected...

Works like a charm! Incredible work, there's a way to propose that tool to be integrated on RDPWrap? That's a game changer, main problem I have since I'm using RDPWrap is Windows Update handling but with this that's no longer a problem. Thanks!

Ok I just got a update today going from 18362.267 to 18362.295 not sure if rdpwrap is effected yet I hope this Autoupdate.bat works.
Looks like terms.dil didn't change in this 295 update no way to know if autoupdate.bat work yet

Woot woot! I got Windows Defender warnings the first time just because it was an unknown app, but after that no problem. Thanks!
