Creating A Portable App: A Guerilla Field Guide Submitted by OliverK on July 31, 2008 - 7:42pm
Introduction:Often, somebody will make a post asking for help. I wrote up a guide real quick for this poster, here. After a suggestion by r-andom, I re-posted as a forum topic. If you have a suggestion for the guide, post here. If you need help portablizing, make a new post in the Portable App Development Forum. So, without much more text, I loose the gorilla. . .

Forum Guidelines (Portable App Development)Submitted by John T. Haller on March 14, 2006 - 3:25am
The portable app development forum is for all development discussion related to portable apps. Feel free to ask questions on adapting the standard PortableApps NSIS-based launchers used with Portable Firefox, etc with other apps. Or with help working on any portable development project you wish. You'll find more portable apps developers here than anywhere else, so, for most questions, either someone will know outright or at least be able to point you in the right direction. »

Launcher AbortSubmitted by prapper on November 20, 2009 - 7:57pm
In the launchers, the labels 'NoProgramEXE' and 'WarnAnotherInstance' end with 'Abort'. OK, but why don't they 'Goto TheEnd' instead and unload the plugins/clean the TEMP directory etc. while they're at it? It would seem much more sensible and I can't see any problem. Is there something I'm missing here that would make this inadvisable? ( categories: )
Problem with Nsis launcher code.Submitted by radarman36 on November 20, 2009 - 4:06pm

I was wrong! GM developers, read this! Submitted by Midi Waffle on November 17, 2009 - 8:43pm
I said earlier that I was using external files for the game, thinking it would make the overall file size smaller, but I was wrong. ( categories: )
Redirecting system folders, solution ? Submitted by Gringoloco on November 15, 2009 - 11:44am
I know the following code for redirecting the 'userprofile'.
System::Call 'Kernel32::SetEnvironmentVariableA(t, t) i("USERPROFILE", "$SETTINGSDIRECTORY\UserProfile").r0'
But I wonder if there will be anyway of redirecting other system folders. Like the following folders: 'Cookies', 'Local Settings' or even 'Temporary Internet Files' and 'History' I have tried all sorts of combinations, but nothing seems to do the trick as 'USERPROFILE' does ! ( categories: )
