So for reasons of a project Im planning, Ive been playing around a bit with Portableapps.com Platform, trying to refresh my memory about how everything works. I had looked back at some posts I had submitted and followed over 4 years ago. At that time I had been eagerly awaiting some features to become available. The developers implied that they might (and I do understand that it was "might") be implemented in the "next platform/version". 4yrs later, I can't tell if Im just missing it, or the features were never implemented. I've gone through every *.ini and *.inf file I can find related to PortableApps.com .
Does anyone know if the following options are hidden somewhere? Because these are basically the only things I can't seem to figure out.
System Tray icon: Is there a way to change the system try Icon?
Directory Links on the right panel: Is there any way to change the assigned directories for the links on the right panel and/or rename those links? For instance
rename Music to Anime and have it go to
X:\Anime
instead of
X:\Documents Anime

It was only in the last few months that the 12.0 release of the platform came around (there have been a lot of problems stopping development) and the ability to rename/add new folders in the right panel is definitely on the upcoming feature list, but is not yet available in this version. I don't think you can change the tray icon yet either.
The two most important days of your life are the day you are born and the day you find out why.
I'm hoping for both of these options too but there is a long list to be done, see: https://portableapps.com/node/28593
