Keep portable apps open and running faster

shortribs - August 11, 2008 - 1:03pm

Hello, I just downloaded portableapps and put it on my flash drive. Whenever i open one of the apps the menu itself closes. I want to keep it open, is there any way to do this? Also, is there anything I can do that will make it faster?


( categories: )

Yes

To keep it open, add the line "RemainVisible=True" to the PortableAppsMenu.ini in ?/PortableApps/PortableAppsMenu/Data/.
Here is a list of all the ini options you have.

Do you have a large number of Aplications showing up in the Menu?
This or a slow drive can cause the menu to start slow and unfortunately there is nothing you can do about it.
