Spec

You have to follow the spec detailed here:
https://portableapps.com/development/portableapps.com_format

Off the bat I see no appicon.ico or apicon_*.png in your AppInfo directory.

And when you run the PortableApps.com Installer and point it to your base directory (the directory containing VCD* and help.html) it will give you an error log if it fails. The last 3 lines contain that info and if you post them it will help.

Sometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!

"AppNamePortable: contains

"AppNamePortable: contains the main application launcher, typically named AppNamePortable.exe and the main help file help.html. No other files are present in this directory by default."

How can I creat a application launcher,is there any software can be useful?
