Other Apps Support (Deprecated)

I can run Minecraft off my flashdrive if I run it from a batch file instead of the executable. But I can't get the batch file to show on the Portable menu, only the exe. Is there a way to edit the menu's path or a mini exe that will trigger my batch file?

Too frequently when I start Notepad++ it gives me this error message

"Load config.xml failed!"

anybody knows how this happens, and better yet how to prevent it from happening?

Error shown:
"Cannot focus a disabled or invisible window."
After clicking OK, textbox has "edtUUID" value instead of new UID.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Uncheck {Braces} checkbox
2. Restart app.

I use portable Google Chrome on a network drive. The network has a mix of XP and Win7 computers. The program works fine on XP, but not on 7. I can open chrome and get a blank new tab screen, and I can open tabs and make bookmarks, but I can't load any webpages (or local pages) or even load the options page.

I'm using version 16.0.912.77

I see there's portable java here, but does it include 64bit Java? I already got Java installed in my system, but there's this program i need to run that requires 64bit Java to run, for some weird reason. In order not to cause conflicts i dont want to install 64 version as well so i thought i should try some porable version...

I am currently using version 16.0.912.63 from the HD of a Win XP Pro SP3 machine.

I seem to have lost the ability to install extensions. I have a few installed from previously, I think from an older version of Chrome. Currently when I try to install a new one from the Chrome Web Store it says "checking" then offers a dialog box to "install" and then nothing happens. This has happened with at least two different extensions. Any help appreciated!

Hi I have windows 7 Home Premium SP1 install and when I open winpenguins I do not see any penguins on my screen.

I have set the number of penguins from between one and a small army and am still getting no penguins?

Any ideas?

Thanks

I'm new to portable apps, so far so good.

I tried CAM Studio 2.0 and went to look for help by clicking on Help\Help. This popped up a HTML file from my PC which is quite helpful. There are other links off the Help menu that don't work though.

Help\CamStudio Website - looks like it starts to go "http://www.rendersoftware.com/products/camstudio" then is redirected to "http://www.adobe.com/products/robodemo/" which gets a page not found error from the Adobe site.

Help\Frequently Asked Questions - goes to www.ehelp.com which was not very helpful actually.

As you know, Opera Software already have a portable setup selection.

Why I use portableapps.com version. What's the difference between them?

I have noticed that even though I have the setting under the Privacy tab to save "no history" that it still keeps the history of the last conversation.

It happens even across different portable instances. For example, I use Skype Portable at a friend's house from my thumbdrive (settings set to no history), have an IM conversation, exit the app.

Then I go home, maybe the next day, launch Skype Portable from my hard drive (so totally different set of files), when I log in I see the conversation history.

Does anyone else experience this or know a fix?

Thanks.
