Portable Apps won't start on Windows 2000 Advanced Server

Hello,

I intalled the application on my one gig usb drive. (Currently using windows 2000 advanced server)
I checked Device Manager and I indeed do have enhanced usb 2.0 support. (intel usb2 enhanced host controller)

I click on the StartPortableApps.exe (using usb drive E:) and nothing happens.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

leAppsMenu is just the truncated form of PortableAppsMenu that the forum cut it down to!

Basically, just save that file linked above on top of the old version in %Drive%\PortableApps\PortableAppsMenu

So I copied it into F:\PortableApps\PortableAppsMenu for example.

That's it. All of the applications on this site allow upgrading by just installing on top of the old versions, which makes things nice and easy!

The StartPortableApps.exe on the root of your drive doesn't need to be changed, as it is just a glorified shortcut to the menu application.

Good Luck!
