Portable App Development

I guess this question has been asked a number of times, but I would like some clarification on the subject. To talk by example, I will use a portable launcher I have created for msysgit.


[Environment]
HOME=%PAL:DataDir%\home
PATH=%PAL:AppDir%\PortableGit\cmd;%PATH%

[Launch]
ProgramExecutable=PortableGit\git-cmd.bat
ProgramExecutableWhenParameters=PortableGit\cmd\git.cmd
SingleAppInstance=false
DirectoryMoveOK=yes
HideCommandLineWindow=true

Hello!!! I am looking for an answer to my question for a long time
I have a simple game for the PC (original language is C++). I want to make a portable version of this game (without installation), so users can play it without having to install (at work, for example!). What technologies for creating and using portable games do you use?
I would be grateful for any answers.

Is it possible, that someone can offer some helpful examples for the usage of hooks? I am particularly interested in the hooks .onInit, Init and Unload. But certainly examples to the other hooks would also be useful. Or exists a website with appropriate tutorials?

Hello, with 'search' I find many entries for Winamp, but have difficulty in finding a final version. Is there one? Can it please be included in the Platform list of downloadable software? Thanks for the answer!

I have already done some fundamental statements in the past in my post Question regarding the registry on this topic. In this respect this post here represents only a supplement.

In this post I want consider the following code:

[Activate]
Registry=true

[RegistryKeys]
-=HKCU\Software\AppName

I'm using the latest edition of PortableApps Launcher and found this bug when developing Dolphin Emulator Portable. When I set "RunAsAdmin" as try (needed in Dolphin), the main executable Dolphin.exe gets the argument "UAC" passed to the program executable, in case of Dolphin, making the emulator won't open, only showing "unknow command line argument" message...

I analyzed in connection with the development of the portable version of the program Drago the switching of the language. Here I focused specifically on the case of the standalone version of the program. For better understanding I would first explain a few facts.

In the subfolder settings of the folder DefaultData I have inserted the file Drago.ini. In the section "Options" I have determined for the key "Language" the value "Hu" (Hungarian).

Subsequently briefly the content of the file DragoPortable.ini:

[Launch]
ProgramExecutable=Drago\Drago.exe

Hello, maybe I've posted in the wrong forum, but I've installed some beta/testing apps and I wonder if the updater in the platform can update those softwares located at : https://portableapps.com/development/test ?

Thank you, have a nice day.

Hello All
Sorry for my poor language, i m french.

I use lot of time Portable app Creator 0.99 but now the software can t work correctly

I see in this site, this soft is aborted.

I download the new software : portables.apps Launcher.

But i don t understand how is work ?

The other software, do all (install, register difference... and launcher)

but i can t see the same work for portables.apps Launcher.

According to the post NSIS How PortableApps Work require changes in the hive HKLM administrator rights. Does this mean that a program can not be made portable, when it creates registry entries in the hive HKLM?
