Can someone help me with my Portable Apps Suite not launching self-made programs?

I wanted to get WinRAR and Project 64 to appear in my Portable Apps Suite tray. I tried just copying and pasting the portable version of WinRAR in there, but there were about 3 EXEs, and they would all appear in my Portable App tray. So I went about writing a bat file that would do the same, so I could just convert it to an EXE and have just that one display. Everything went fine- I wrote the program, compiled it, etc, and it worked great! But, when I started up the Suite's tray and launched it from there, it didn't. Anyone know why?

Oh, and in case you couldn't follow that poorly-written question, here's a link to a video:

Thanks for your help! (In case you can't read the error text, it says that WinRARLauncher.exe can't be found, even though it can be launched from Windows Explorer)

Could Be

The working directory bug from what it sounds like. Download the beta mentioned about it on the suite page.

Off Topic, but...

How did you make that video! I find Camstudio takes a screenshot of the busy sign.

Insert original signature here with Greasemonkey Script.

Well, I'm using Camtasia

Well, I'm using Camtasia Studio 5. I just went into the recorder, set it to record at full screen, and pressed the record button. What do you mean by "busy sign"?
