Notepad++ Upgrade deletes plugins

Submitted by Jimbo on February 29, 2008 - 2:28am

When I updated from the previous version (portable) to 4.8, it cleaned out everything in the app folder, which included my manually installed plugins.

I had a couple of extra dll files that I'd installed in \PortableApps\Notepad++Portable\App\Notepad++\plugins\ alongside the ones it ships with. Is there some other folder that is persistent in the portable version, or this this something that may need to be looked at in the launcher?

Happily, I had a backup of the plugins, so it was easy to reinstall them, and they work fine now that I have done so.

HI All,

Firstly, thanks for great site.

[DOSBox Portable] installing german language (not KEYB)

Submitted by Traeumer76 on February 26, 2008 - 5:26am

Hello everybody,

i need some help installing the german language file in "DOSBox Portable". Maybe it´s the same problem with other languages, too.

I downloaded the file and put it into my \DOSBoxPortable\App\DOSBox\ where the original README.txt is located. (That seemed to be the directory similar to the "Application folder" mentioned in the instructions.)
Afterwards i changed the dosbox.conf from "language=" (standard setting) into "language=deutsch.lng"

Auto Starting

Submitted by tigreseis on February 24, 2008 - 2:45pm

Someone please help. I have been struggling with this. I have been trying to get RocketDock to autostart when I plug in my USB. I have followed all the ideas on this forum, but something isn't right.

I edited the autorun.inf to point to RocketDock instead of geek.menu, but the choose action screen came up anyway.

I changed the choices to "Take no action" as someone suggested, but then the root of my usb opens up.

I downloaded PSU and changed the "open" element to psu.exe -all, but the choices menu opens again.

tried a portable version of Kaspersky avp 6.0.1.4 and after running it only once, Outlook and internet Explorer do not run properly unless the drive(with the avp portable app) is plugged in. Any suggestions on how to "unregister" the app or what ever is causing this problem

Submitted by Francibat on February 20, 2008 - 8:08am

Please note that to make Portable Mplayer play RM (realmedia)files it is required to put codecs downloaded from http://www.mplayerhq.hu/design7/dload.html into codecs folder....I did it but it doesn't works Sad ....
.. this solutions do not work until you replace mplayer.exe included in PortableApps installation with a fresh mplayer.exe taken from a hard disk install.

configuration files dosbox portable 0.72

Submitted by jeroenrikken on February 19, 2008 - 12:20pm

I am using the original version of dosbox to run some old programs. I thougt it wasn't easy to drag my programs into the dosbox icon, or to mount it every time, so I came up with the folowing sollution:

i made a few configuration files, and in the autoexec area, i typed the lines wich i used to mount my programs. I did this for every program.

Next, i wrote an .bat file, and i made a menu in it. the shortcut to my programs became this: start (location dosbox) dosbox.exe -conf (location custom .conf file)conffile.conf.
