"Downloads" folder link?

My flash drive has all of the (your) portableapps installed on it that I need + photos / music / videos / documents.

The other thing that I have MASSES of are "downloads" -> stuff to install on PCs -> AV / Firewalls / service packs / openoffice / browsers...

I'd REALLY like a "Downloads" button on the PA menu, rather than "Documents" -> then "Downloads" in Explorer - I'm THAT lazy!!!

Is there a way to create your own folder links already in the PA menu?

Those folders are hardcoded.

At present the folders are

At present the folders are hard coded, but a future release of the platform is to introduce options to customise the icons and the destinations.

If at first you do not succeed, use more sticky tape.

have you thought of just putting those files in the root of the drive? then click 'explore' and BAM! yer there!

That's how I do it.
