I guess I'm just dense but I'm struggling with the directions to make a directory
next to the Portable Apps Directory. I'd love to send a screen shot of what I've done but since that isn't possible I'll have to try to describe it.
I loaded FastStoneCapture which is a tiny exe. program into my drive. I now have two portable apps folders one on top of the other with FastStone Capture being in a subfolder under the first one. All the parts are there including the shortcut but
of course the icon doesn't refresh. What have I done and how can it be corrected?

I use the following directory structure:
- My portable dive happens to be I: on this machine
- I:\PortableApps is my directory containing all my applications
- I:\PortableApps\FSCaptureFree is my directory containing my copy of FastStone Capture, I happen to use the last freeware version. The directory
- I:\PortableApps\FSCaptureFree\FSCapture.exe is the executable. It is picked up by the standard PAM menu. It is also picked up by various PAM variants (when the menu is refreshed).
I hope this helps.
Thanks so much for taking the time to walk me through an example. That's all I needed. I too use one of the older Capture versions and I've found nothing that can equal it. Your plan helps a bunch!
