The *.paf.exe is really

The *.paf.exe is really nothing more than a special flag for our installers to say that the app is portable and in the PortableApps.com format. This is the format that the menu will detect to auto-install apps.

To install your own apps to the menu, simply copy the application's folder to the /PortableApps/ directory.

Example:
PortableApps.com platform is installed to X:\
Menu and PortableApps.com apps are located in X:\PortableApps\
[AppName]Portable is installed to X:\PortableApps\[AppName]Portable
To add your own app, copy [AppDirectory] to X:\PortableApps\[AppDirectory]

Also, in the future, please use the search feature built into this website. Often times your question has been asked in the past, and will typically lead to finding an answer more quickly.
