Windows Taskbar icon for Private Browsing by PortableApps.com app is still default Firefox icon

Submitted by Testosticore on December 26, 2013 - 1:40am

According to: https://portableapps.com/apps/internet/private_browsing

This app has "a custom icon in the taskbar so you can easily distinguish it from your main Firefox Portable profile".

According to my screenshot here: http://i.imgur.com/VJMq4wc.jpg

No, it doesn't. It still uses the default Firefox icon, so you can't "distinguish it from your main Firefox Portable profile".

TeamViewer will not install

Submitted by johnqharvard on December 23, 2013 - 9:11am

When attempting to update TeamViewer, I get an error that says "The downloaded copy of TeamViewer Portable is not valid and can not be installed. This could be due to an incomplete download or other network issue. Please try tunning the updater again when complete." I tried uninstalling and reinstalling and for the same error. It happens on two different computers. Has this happened to anyone else?

Hi!
I was testing Google Chrome 31.0.1650.57 stable, and found it doesn't delete all added Registry Keys after closing the browser.

Here is RegShot's log after first run:
