Easy way to know if a program was installed with PortableApps or not?

I have many programs which I've installed with the official Portable version of theirs, since there's not a PortableApps version. That's fine, but is there a way for me to know which of my programs are from PortableApps and which aren't?

Some apps show updates and I'd update those which I got from the official source, while I'd wait for the PortableApps updater for those I got through the platform. I feel like maybe I can figure it out if I go to the app's directory and search for the "App" folder there, but idk how reliable it is, and it's a bit bothersome. Is there a faster way to check? Maybe on the platform itself?

Help - About - Apps

If you check in Help - About and select the Apps tab, you'll see a list of all the apps you have installed. Apps in PA.c Format will show their version and AppID while other apps will not.

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