Newbie question - portableapps menu shows no apps

Hi. It's worked a couple of times but now shows as blank, ie no apps shown when I open the menu. Any ideas?
Thanks.

OK got the apps back. The autorun.inf thread was useful but I think what worked was that I managed to retrace my steps and find where I'd gone wrong, as when I first installed Suite, it worked OK.
