Installing apps on USB stick

Hi Smile

I'm very intrigued by the possibilities of portable apps on a USB stick, but being a novice, I'm having problems.

On this stick, the PortableApps Platform is on there. The trouble is if I want to put an application on there that isn't in .PAF format, and it's just a ZIP file.

How do I then go about converting it (if necessary) so it can install with the other apps on there please?

Thanks.

Adding Apps to the Platform

Take a look at https://portableapps.com/support/platform#addingotherapps

But, be aware that just because some apps are supplied in zip files doesn't guarantee true portability.

Thanks Smile

A lot to get my head around, but I'll have a look.
