Gimp help cannot be installed into the portable Gimp app

Submitted by Achim.L on December 26, 2021 - 10:23am

Hallo,

would be nice to install the gimp help manual into or in addition to GimpPortable app 2.10.30, but the install program gimp-help-2.10.0-de-setup.exe from gimp.org refuses to install the help manual (even generally anywhere) since it pretends that Gimp 2.10 is not installed at the PC system.
Please, could you either turn the gimp manual into a portable app or give me a hint how I could manually supplement GimpPortable by the gimp manual?

Thank you much,
Achim.L

[Fixed] Blender Portable 2.93.2 runs 32-bit version on Windows 8 64-bit

Submitted by PaulNormanNZ on August 18, 2021 - 10:02am

Hi,

I've been running PortableApps for years, and Blender on it as well with no problems.

Then PortableApps updated, including Blender, and on the first run I got a message about being onWindows 7 (which I am not Smile and that there was a legacy app available for Windows 7.

Mousing over the Blender item in the PortableApps menu, it showed as 2.93.2 as expected, but when Blender started it was 2.80!

Blender Portable stores data locally

Hello everyone.
After configuring Blender on my PC, I went to another one, and I discovered all my settings weren't there!
Blender Portable still stores data locally, while it should use its own folder. I also tried VLC, SeaMonkey and LibreOffice, no problems with any of them.
Maybe this pages will help:

Blender 2.93 doesn't work for Windows 7 | Reverting back to 2.92 | Updating issue

Submitted by AbsolutelyRandom on July 3, 2021 - 7:34pm

With the latest version of 2.93 of Blender, it doesn't work on Windows 7. The reason behind it is that Python 3.9 dropped support for Windows 7.
I have already installed the portable version 2.92 which works for me. How can I stop the PortableApps program from suggesting me updating Blender to 2.93 on each run?
