PortableApps.com Platform

After downloading portable apps platfrom to kingston 8gb flash drive, i put a couple of otf and ttf format fonts onto the platfrom's font directory folder inside the Portableapps.com/data/font directory. However, after launching libreoffice from my flash drive, the new fonts did not appear in the fonts list. After a couple of hours, i tried again with no luck. The fonts don't appear on any other programs either. Please tell me how to fix this problem

So I bought a new Sandisk Cruzer today and guess what? I can't eject using the eject button anymore, nor using the old eject script (that one complained about the device not being ejectable). So I look into it and using the old eject script's feature of showing what's running on the USB key, I see that the script has it marked as Fixed.

Hello all!

The platform menu (nice design, by the way!) has four standard folders on the right: Documents, Music, Pictures & Video. I would like to know if it is possible to:
– rename them;
– change their icons (on the folders themselves, and on the PA launcher).

Minor subsidiary point: changing also the Explore icon.

Thanks for your help!

Hello all!

Strange recent problem (everything OK till then): as soon as I launch the platform, ALL my desktop icons disappear (on Win XP 32 bit, SP3). As soon as I close the exe, they are back.
Have I unwittingly triggered some option?

Thanks for your help!

While I saw a few update-related issues in the bug report thread, I'm not sure my issue is covered exactly so forgive me if this is redundant.

Hi! I am on Windows 7. I downloaded Portableapps.com because I want to install fonts on my work computer but it requires an admin password to do so.

I followed the directions found here but when I open Photoshop with Portableapps.com also open, the newly installed fonts are not showing up. I also closed and restarted Portable Apps and PSP, but again, no new fonts. Any ideas?

Thank you!

I was wondering when the next Platform release was coming out because I noticed that the last platform release was 2 years ago in 2012. Is it still being developed or what? Did something happen?

Wouldn't it be nice to be able to make a shortcut directly in the Portable Apps menu? In this way, someone could add apps that may not be portable, but still work on a thumb drive. For example, DraftSight is not likely to allow me the change the program to the PortableApps standards, but if someone could make a shortcut to point to the nested DraftSight.exe file, then they could launch it from the Portable Apps Menu.

Here is a example of what it could look like when added to the suite.

Hi all,

i want to customize my key.
I read the portable_apps_suite.

i can add logo on top, ok
i can add new categories, ok

but ...

1) How can i freeze the config ?
I mean i dont want that users click on the top menu to change logo,
I want to fix the logo.
I dont want that users change the theme/template
i dont want that users could see the theme/template tab in the option windows...

2) Traduction for custom categories

I really like all the nifty little features that come with the PA.com Platform, but is there any other features that have not been specified on the Platform's page? Is there some way I can use it to change the cursor on my computer whenever the PA Menu is running or anything else like that?
