Right-click the folder where the patch is and choose Git bash. Then type this:-

patch -p1 < nameofthepatch.patch

No idea what the above poster is talking about...lol

He explained how to manually install a patch

The OP wanted to APPLY a patch, not MAKE one.

Perhaps my grammar is just too perfect

Yeah, patman didn't tell him how to MAKE a patch, but how to READ a patch to be able to change the lines manually in the file.

(Btw, offtopic, what is your status actually? Your nick color is...unique)
