Portable OpenVPN 2.2.2

Submitted by page2pagepro on June 4, 2012 - 2:25pm

Go to link download and install: OpenVPNPortable_1.6.6.paf.exe

This includes OpenVPN 2.1.1 and works great.

Go to link and download: openvpn-2.2.2-install.exe

Using 7Zip, extracted the 2.2.2 installer to a folder (some files for x86/x64 will overwrite - this is ok, we aren't using these.)

Copy the following files from unzipped folder:

12/15/2011  12:29 PM         1,098,240 libeay32.dll
12/15/2011  12:29 PM            63,488 libpkcs11-helper-1.dll

Something altered my desktop taskbar and start menu

Submitted by pea bod on June 3, 2012 - 4:26pm

Hi,

I don't wish to report the wrong app as I was using a couple of them but one altered the colour and shade/transparency of my taskbar and start menu.

In order to help, only,
I think it was the PNotes app.

Reason being that I was mucking around with it's appearance and now the same colour, transparency and also, I think, font, is now what my taskbar and start menu are displaying.

I did also use the help button on the PortableApps.com menu which opened for me using the Opera app (which set itself as default it seems, for the PortableApps.com platform?)

jportable and mysql-connector

Submitted by kdm on June 1, 2012 - 9:19am

I need to run a Java app that connects to a mysql database.
I was provided with a driver (jar-file) called mysql-connectro-… that will handle the connection.
Can jportable handle this kind of things?
If so, where does the driver have to go?

I re-installed Java for now.
Without the driver I cannot make connection to the database either, but if I place the driver in C:\Program Files\Java\jre7\lib\ext\ the database connection is there and I can view and edit the data.

Google Chrome Portable incompatible when Google Chrome already installed

Submitted by blakenzoe on May 30, 2012 - 12:53pm

This is just an FYI. It'd be great if there were a solution for this.

I use both Google Chrome and Google Chrome Portable on the same computer for specific business reasons. Each time Chrome does its auto-update to a newer version, Portable quits working with the following errors on startup:

Could not get Chrome DLL version.
Could not find exported function RelaunchChromeBrowserWithNewCommandLineIfNeeded

Portable Apps on Cloud

Submitted by reem_151 on May 30, 2012 - 6:37am

Had a search on how to put all my apps from my flash drive to a cloud drive. The cloud services that I have tried do not allow you to upload folders, so in theory I could create folders and rename them to the correct folder names and upload the individual files. Not gonna do that...Has anyone got their PortableApp.com platform working on a cloud service so that it works as if you got your flash drive plugged in to the machine? And how did you do it? which service did you use?
Many Thanks..

I am trying to import a MDL to blend script into blender portable but I am totally lost as to where to set my file directories. I am not a noob, but I am not an advanced user either. I am just a Dbase Programmer trying to take the NWN models and Make DnD Minis for a blender game engine version of the DnD Pen and Paper Minis Game. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Google Chrome Portable not closing fit's files

Submitted by rr24 on May 28, 2012 - 7:26am

New Chrome (since last two releases) is not closing multiple files when I exit last instance of the browser. That is fatal as those files remain locked and can not be accessed by number of file system synchonization tools.

Workaround: Log out and log in from win 7.

Files noticed to be locked:

GoogleChromePortable\Data\profile\Default\Archived History
GoogleChromePortable\Data\profile\Default\Archived History-journal
GoogleChromePortable\Data\profile\Default\Current Session
GoogleChromePortable\Data\profile\Default\File System\Origins\000433.log
