I wanted to thank Shane Thompson for his initial release. I've since re-done the launcher to handle file portability.

Shane - If you're interested in getting up to speed on the current launcher and the portablization of this app, I'm happy to have you take over maintenance Smile

Gah, I just finished syncing my backups to my new thumb drive after my old one died, now I have to go update it again. >:( Blum

Anyways,

Signature automatically removed for being too awesome.

Thanks John, that would be great if we could just get me back up to speed on that. I will re-download this and look over it myself, hopefully I can cover most of it myself.

Thanks again,
shanet

Start with the current version and get a feel for what I did with PAL in the launcher.ini. And if you have any questions, just ask Smile

This is a great app and use it plenty at my own PC, thanks.

I'm tired of people living in their fantasy world when the clock is ticking away, and when they are unable to see reality for what it is.

How does this app handle bookmarks on specific PCs? Like, if I wanted to save separate folders for my Home PC and School PC for example.

Would that work, or does it only work for folders on the flash drive

You can set them, but they'll fail when not on their respective PCs... and will be messed up if there is a 'collision' with a drive letter assigned to your flash drive at some point. Bookmarks on your flash drive are portablized.

I tried this app out once I had seen its feature.
At first it was working as promise, but after I switched to work on other program it was frozen and I couldn't do anything except ending it process in taskmanager.
I don't know if the version of windows relevant or it was caused from other reason.
I use windows XP SP3.
