Hi there.
I'm portable-addicted and I use others apps on my USB-stick - skype, PSI, Total Commander, Private Data and many more. Sometimes i had problems with run them from it - it was many .exe files in directory, application must have som params or environment variables set berore it is run.
So I developed a small application that runs other application (that supposed to be a portable one) from (for example) App directory.
I can configure all application parameters and define Environment vars before run.

Is it possible to rename the list on Portable Apps main Menu

Upgraded the Java version installed on my machine to ver 6, update 2 tonight. I still had the older update 1's folder and files on the machine so the directory structure looked like this:

C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.6.0_01
C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.6.0_02

I ran Java Portablizer v1.1 to update my ..\PortableApps\CommonFiles\Java files and it worked no problem. The program picked up on what was the latest version installed, copied the files, and updated the contents of JavaPortable.ini

By default, when using 7-zip, the working directory used to compress the files in is %TEMP%. However this can be problematic, if the compressed file is large (say, 7GB) and the user does not have that much space free on that drive (say, 6GB). This causes the disk to fill, 7-zip to fail to allocate more space. It deletes the temp file and PortableAppsBackup has no explanation for the failure. Such large backups can take over 12 hours, and so this is quite irritating.

as title.

Thanks.

umm, how would one change the directory in which the portable apps browser looks for my media?
i am running this off of my memory stick for my PSP and i want the my music, video, and pictures to be in the root/MUSIC folders ETC..
thanks.

Hello all. It seems to me that we might be able (eventually) to make portable apps our selfs. I wish I could code and implement ANY of these ideas myself, but I did want to share them.

Reading different threads it came to me... why not use a program that monitors the installation of normal applications as to recreate its environment when launched? I've seen these apps (in some form) for years.

Hello, all

I am currently using putty portable via .bat files to access my servers. I would like to configure these .bat files to utilize command prompt portable instead, and be able to store these .bat files in another folder (such as the PAM docs folder).

For instance, currently in the putty portable folder I have a .bat file to access a server as follows:

start PuTTYPortable -P 22 -ssh 111.111.11.111 -l myuser -pw mypassword
