Hello again, I was testing your latest version of Widescreen patcher (v3.9.0) and I found a problem, when I run it, in the extras section the cheat unlocker box is checked by default, however when I patch the Sims.exe it appears modified the resolution correctly but the cheats are not unlocked, use the help command to verify it.
For the cheat patch to work, I had to uncheck the box, then select apply at the bottom right, check the box again and deselect apply again.

I assume that by unchecking and checking again something changes in the code that makes it work.

I guess it's an unwanted behavior of the software, so I decided to support your great project.

For these tests use a portable version of LS1 without expansions, it is easier to unzip the file and try several times in different cases.

I tried to run as administrator but by default the cheat unlocker could not be installed without doing those steps mentioned.

You do an excellent job for the community, additionally I would like to suggest the future idea of adding a multi-language configuration to the application and extensive descriptions in the configuration options for people with little knowledge.

I recently did tests on a virtual machine with Windows XP, the patch did not work for me because it is 64-bit and my system is 32, some people might be limited with it, but it is probably a lot of work and mostly unnecessary, although it would be great if it worked on everyone the systems.
