Just a heads up,
If I go to manually upgrade a PortableApps install, and have to select where to install (usually because of two PortableApps installations being present eg in my system I have Medicat emergency boot USB installed as a tertiary OS and it includes PortableApps), it shows the location of the installation root directory, not the actual full pathname. So if I've forgotten default install behavior, I go to install / upgrade to <parent folder name>\PortableApps, and PA installer will install to <parent folder name>\PortableApps\PortableApps
My Medicat install partition is H:\ and upgrader detects that, however the primary one that I use on my system is in D:\Tools\PortableApps I'm guessing the detection error is either related to finding H:\ and not probing further, or because I have a symlink C:\Tools pointing to D:\Tools and perhaps the installer doesn't follow symlinks correctly.
It's easy enough to fix afterwards, but I was wondering if you could perhaps the installation location message could be a little more clear when you go to install / upgrade PortableApps, for example, instead of:
"Setup will install PortableApps.com Platform in the following folder. (Ok, does it mean the contents of PortableApps or the root PortableApps folder?) To install in a different folder, click Browse and select another folder. Click Next to continue."
It could say:
"Setup will install the PortableApps.com Platform folder to the following location. To install in a different folder, please select the destination location that you wish the main PortableApps folder to reside in. If you are upgrading an existing PortableApps install, select its parent folder."
