Not what I said, or meant.

I didn't inform you that posting a forum topic about an app you're developing was breaking the rules.
I said that having links (any links, even to pages on PA.c) in your signature was breaking the rules.

Big difference.

PAF Format

As to your earlier question, you can post PortableApps App Creation Wizard as long as it is in PA.c Format.

Sometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!

Oh..

Well awesome. As soon as I get over being sick I'll turn it into a PAF exe

3D1T0R, it was a non-paf app which is why I had to remove the link. Talking to Mr. Haller yesterday was enlightening.

Edit: Re-released in .paf.exe format.

Have an awesome day! Biggrin

release location

just a small comment about your github repo, try to put the binary release exe in the releases of github and not in the git repo itself.
Look at my repo for an example: https://github.com/sagiegurari/brackets-portable/releases
git is not meant to store huge files and should not hold the output of your build. That is why you have a release and you can attach to a release binary files.

NSIS (Unicode) is not installed.

NSIS Portable (Unicode) is not installed in your PortableApps Directory. It is required for PortableApps.com Launcher to work.
https://portableapps.com/apps/development/portableapps.com_launcher

"NSIS Portable Required: The PortableApps.com Launcher generator requires NSIS Portable (Unicode) 2.46 Rev 2 or higher to be installed alongside it (usually both to the X:\PortableApps directory) to function. Users upgrading from pre-release versions of Unicode NSIS Portable and the PortableApps.com Launcher will need to completely remove the existing apps."

Have an awesome day! Biggrin

Are you using the latest version of NSIS Portable Unicode?

Are you using the latest version of NSIS Portable Unicode? This is not an issue with my script, it's an issue with PortableApps.com Launcher or NSIS Portable Unicode. My script only sets up the folder structure and configures the 2 initial files needed to run the portable app.

Have an awesome day! Biggrin

I'm not dead, I promise (Raaaaah..... Brains!!)

I know it's been a while since I posted, but I thought I would say, this project isn't dead, it just slowed down due to lack of interest. I'm always looking for suggestions and feedback, so dm me if you have something you wanna discuss.

Have an awesome day! Biggrin
