Other Apps Support (Deprecated)

I frequently use portable apps in an internet cafe (in russia).

The computers there have an accessible usb port at the front but most of the times (9 out of 10) when i plug one of my usb drives in, this does not mount. The drives 'power up' (so the usb port actually works) but they don't mount in windows (windows xp pro), i.e. the usual 'new hardware found' etc. dialogs and later the drive do not appear.

Hello,

I've just started downloading these portable applications, and they are already extremely useful!

However, I would like to try out pStart, but the website on which it is hosted is returning 404 for every page, including the site's root.

Does anyone have a mirror to the pStart download?

Many thanks

Hey all,
I'm trying to get dscrypt working correctly on my jump, and i'm having some problems. whenever i try to drag a folder into dscrypt to encrypt the contents, dscrypt comes back with the error that it doesn't have permission to access the folder.

Drag&Dropping files workes fine, but for encrypting a program with tons of files and multiple folders would just be easier if i could drag and drop the main folder.

any ideas?

Hello All,

Here are the steps I took when installing and now I cannot delete/Erase(r) the folder:

Downloaded and installed per instructions at:
http://www.portablefreeware.com/?q=deepburner&m=Search

***HOWEVER, I notice that I downloaded and installed the non-portable version free file from the right-hand column @ http://www.deepburner.com/index.php?r=products&pr=deepburner&prr=provsfree

- Installed to my thumbdrive.

- I cannot get rid of folder. When I check the properties of the folder, it shows size as approx. 65gb. WOW!

- When I try to use DELETE option in Windows, it says cannot write to disk (only says this with this particular folder).

Hello! A good alternative to firefox is dr orca developped by the avant browsers team with gecko. The structure is similar to firefox so my question is to John T. Haller : could you make a launcher for dr orca??
Thank you very much!

Hello,

I use pstart but noticed that it is not really 100% portable like some apps are.
By that I mean when I change from say my home pc to my office pc, I have to edit the config every time and let it find the current drive letter for my usb key.
At home my drive is G: but at work it is M: because of more network drivers, TS drives etc. Is there some way to get PSTart to automatically update the USB drive letter automatically without user intervention?

Thanks, Fletch

Until I found this site, I used to use AMenu. The problem is this abandonware's company is gone and left it with some limitations:
1) No menu can have over 10, well - 8, buttons (because 2 are reserved).
2) No submenus (but I fixed that by having many copies around and linking them via buttons).
3) No drag and drop, but the INF (a-la PStart's XML) file is very friendly in Notepad and besides, it's 8 buttoms at a time at most anyway.

at www.opera-usb.com you can Download for Free a complete OperaVersion with all Features like a Desktop Version.

I have offical authorisation to offer changed Opera Verison from Opera Norway

I saw somewhere on this forum someone posted a PortableWackget. I'm using it with my Firefox Flashgot extension. The problem is, whenever the drive letter of my usb pendrive (For instance, if i have on my computer H: and on another computer is F:) i have to reconfigure Flashgot for loading Wackget, and then tell wackget what my download folder is (which i always want to be a Temp folder on my USB pendrive).
Also, sometimes WackGet won't resume downloads, but i'm assuming that the problem is the same as above.
I's there any solution to this?

UPDATE: i've also noticed that my configurations
