It always shows "The remote

It always shows "The remote package repository is not online. You have to choose another repository." when I use darksabre76's MiKTeX launcher portable to update MiKTeX or install new packages. But I'm pretty sure that the server I selected is online. Much worse is that it can't show any available server when I tried to get a complete list of repository. I tried both direct connection and through a proxy. Is it a bug of this MiKTeX or launcher?

Update: Never mind. It seems to be MiKTeX's server's error and it fails to return a list of available repositories.

Is there a chance to create an updated version with LyX as well?

Official Release

Could this become an official Application in the suite?

Could you also make a version of LyX to work with it?

Thank You.

MikTeX Launcher Portable no longer works with 2.9.5987. Can you please fix that?

Update

Hi mwayne,

Any chance you update this package?
Better in a way compatible with the package from darksabre76's Dev Test?

By the way, I think you need to add a Launcher.

Thank You.

This Is Fantastic!

@mwayne,
Just a question, if I install this, will it replace (And compatible) with the version by darksabre?
Is it compatible with darksabre's launcher?

Thank You.

Will It Overwrite (Replace)?

Will it overwrite (Replace) darksabre (I think it should)?

How can we make it official?

Somebody Must Make This Official

Really,
PortableApps screams for TeX (For the students / scientists, engineers among us at least).

We need MiKTeX + TeXStudio + LyX.

Can anyone please hear us?

mwayne, thank you for your efforts so far.

Thank You.

Release Date

Hi John,
You previously stated that MiKTeX will get into the official list of applications.

Any idea when can we expect it (Roughly)?
Anything we can do to assist?

Thank You.

Possibility

I never said it would get added. I discussed the possibility here: https://portableapps.com/comment/237002#comment-237002

There is no timeframe. Please stop calling me out directly when I have lots of other work on my plate. https://portableapps.com/development/outdated

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

Supportive, Not Offensive

Hi,
I'm sorry if you felt I was offensive or something.

All I meant if there is something that can be done to assist you.
I know you're doing your best and you have a lot of work with the amazing suite you created.

I didn't have any intention to provoke, just to raise a friendly reminder with the will to assist (If I can).

I can donate 50$ for this purpose if it helps (I know it doesn't cover all expenses and time related, just to show I'm willing to assist with something I can).
