So I have installed PortableApps at work in my Dropbox folder. Everything works great from that end. When I get home, I use Linux & Dropbox. Some Portable Apps are telling me that the path is different and that it is not recommended for me to "move" things like this.
Will I break anything if I answer "yes" to continue with the new path?
Can I map a "fake" Z: drive in linux to avoid these "broken" paths?
Any help is appreciated.
The issue is moving a drive around (drive letter changing) vs changing the whole path (X:\PathTo\PortableApps vs Y:\DifferentPathTo\PortableApps). All app work as the drive letter changes so you can carry them around portably on a drive. Most apps are configured to accept these path changes that accompany using something like DropBox on multiple PCs with different OSes (Windows XP vs Windows Vista+ vs Linux). Some are not yet. Some can't be as some functionality will break (example: uTorrent existing torrents will all fail). You can answer yes and try it. If you have questions about specific apps, ask em here.
Sometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!
