I really like the PortableApps.com Installer programs

I really like how programs such as Chrome and Skype do not have the PortableApps splash screen. I wish there was a way to suppress that on other PortableApps.

Not trying to take anything away from this awesome resource, but the splash screens bug me, and whether it is fact of fiction, it provides me the illusion of a slower load of the program.

ahh, got it, just had to search around a bit.

Edit in the ini file

\App\Other\Source

edit the .ini

Change
DisableSplashScreen=false
to
DisableSplashScreen=true

Wrong place?

Once you have made that change, you have to copy (or move) the .ini so that it is right beside the whateverPortable.exe file, otherwise it will never be utilized.

In other words, the directory has to look like:

[App]
[Data]
[Other]
help.html
whateverPortable.exe
whateverPortable.ini
