hi all, i thought you might be interested to see the portable apps menue running in reactos 0.3.3 rc1,,i couldnt get any of the portable apps to run but its a start, the back up app did start and it tried to back up the drive (its fat32 in vmware),it got about half the drive backed up before it froze? ,anyways here a pic , http://img517.imageshack.us/my.php?image=portableappsmz8.png
even nicer if you install the High DPI patch from the suite page.

It probably ships with an outdated Wine. You need the latest. Most apps work. You'll need to ask ReactOS how to do that as it varies by OS.
Sometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!
reactos doesnt use wine,(its not linux),although it does share code with wine project.

You probally won't get them to work as the Applications are Windows applications that may also run under WINE as WINE is a compatiability layer for Windows like programs on Linux.

ReactOS is an operating system aimed to being the Open-Source clone of Windows and not linux. Therefore it doesn't not use wine. They just share their discoveries with wine to help wine out with their project.![Biggrin](https://portableapps.com/sites/all/modules/smiley/packs/kolobok/biggrin.gif)

Thanks. But they're still not tested to work on ReactOS, so I dunno...

ReactOS is still in it's alpha stages anyway. Right on their site, they said it's not recommended for everyday use. It'll be awesome when it's up and running, but for now, I don't see much reason for John to try and test these on ReactOS
