Startup time - possible to improve?

Hi Everyone,

I notice when I start Portable Apps, it shows a progress meter that takes somewhere around 2 minutes to complete. Obviously it's reading through all my app directories, right? Is there any way to cache this, or improve it, other than deleting unneeded apps?

Cheers,
Greg


Cache

Caching for it is coming in 2.0. If you have lots of non-PAF apps, it slows it down at the moment.

Sometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!

..and obviously also depends

..and obviously also depends on the speed of your drive: USB3 any1?

lets not have this conversation

I'm finding that the less stuff I do, the less stuff I wanna do.
