installation folder

are you kidding me? I was always a big fan of portableapps, but its ridiculous that you force me to have my "portable" apps installed in a special place, for it is not allowed to install them in the usual place where all apps are installed.

what means "portable" to you? you dont have to tell me, what I do on my computer. its embarassing.

second is, that you could tell me (and all others) why the isntallation fails and dont put out a message, that says nothing at all. I got the "mistake" after three or four times downloading, assuming there is something wrong with the downloaded file. and after hours of researching what the error could have caused by.

its a silly impertinence to act like microsoft in manipulating the user, as surely the developers know better than me.

I am close to call you idiots!

change this behaviour of the installer. immediately. I am pissed, as you can easily tell from my writing here. Sad

issues

As much as we understand your frustration, we did this because some programs act funny/non portable if installed there. In addition, it can cause issues with Win7+ and UAC. A more elaborate answer can be found here.
