Glary Utilities Portable 2.20.0.831 Development Test 1

I'm just saying that it is kind of like a duplicate of the older 2.5 version of the launcher.

Not really sure about that one, to be honest. At a guess, as it's referencing the installer rather than the app, I don't think there's too much to worry about. It's not appearing here, although there are various others things under that key, portable and otherwise. No installers though...

If someone with more knowledge chips in and says I need to fix it, I'll happily do so.

It works fine I used it for several cleanup duties but it wont start from the PA Menu or directly from the launcher.

I haven't a clue what i'm doing but I took a look at the /appinfo/.ini file and noticed that the path to the .exe includes 'Portable' at the end of the name in all places but the .exe is missing this word. The confusing thing for me, not hard, is that if you change the .exe to GlaryUtilitiesPortable the launcher then comes up with an error saying it cant find GlaryUtilities.exe???

I think thats something you are more capable of figuring this out than me, jus thought try to help.

EDIT: btw yes it is that startupmonitor program that i use.

EDIT: jus wondered, if a PA.com app is started from launcher it cleans up all activity when closed yes? Does the same thing happen when a PA.com app is started without using the launcher but direct from the app's .exe file. It's not really important for me to know but was just curious. It may be useful for others to know.

Yes, that's the problem. I've reconfigured the launcher to run as admin without any user intervention so you should be OK to use it with the R34MOD.

The reason your install is failing is because it's been updated (new version up top). You *can* update manually but there's a bit of renaming to be done as GlaryUtilitiesPortable.exe (launcher) cannot run GlaryUtilitiesPortable.exe (app).

Anyway, I recommend you trash your current GlaryUtilitiesPortable folder and install this latest one. Hopefully we've cracked it. Let me know.

P.S. Total Uninstall should be fixed too (I think you were having the same problem with that).

P.P.S. Correct paths are -

GlaryUtilitiesPortable
   |_App
       |_Glary Utilities
           |_App
           |_GlaryUtilities.exe

EDIT1: Added paths.
EDIT2: Corrected paths!

sl23 I get a request from StartupManager asking whether I should allow GUP to start with windows. Is there any way to disable this?

I've set the GUP launcher to add itself temporarily to startup *in case* you use the registry defrag option (which reboots the system when it finishes and kills all running apps, including the launcher so no clean up). If you do reboot, the launcher will start again with Windows (minus all the backing up stuff) and then clean up when you exit the app (and remove itself from startup). Otherwise files and regkeys will be left on the system. I'm not sure why the original portable version even allows this (and many other things!) but it does so I've "fixed" it LOL.

Having said all that, I've now made it an option in the INI so if you *really* aren't going to use it and the -yoursecurityprogramhere- warning *really* bugs you, you can switch it off

(minimize to tray & show ballon tips), but they're 'greyed out' why is that?

They're disabled by the app so I can't do anything to change that. I don't know why, because some of the 'helper' apps that GU uses remain minimized in the tray when you exit them (see the release notes for 2009-09-04).

system startup option isnt ticked

See above, it's a feature of the launcher rather than the app.

They're disabled in the portable package I'm using so there's nothing I change there unfortunately.
