Opera 29 & profile handling/erasing ?

Submitted by rolfi on May 31, 2015 - 4:18pm

Running Win 8.1 I have Opera 29.0.1795.60 installed on both an usb-key and on my harddrive.
I'm using mainly the usb installation.
Regularly all my settings (bookmarks, speed dial,open tabs, ...) are lost at startup. Not even after an update or a crash. I don't know what triggers this behaviour ?
What is happening ?
As far as I can see Opera moves "profile" folder from "J:\PortableApps\OperaPortable\Data\profile" to "J:\PortableApps\OperaPortable\App\Opera\29.0.1795.60\profile" at startup

Hi

just updated from v42.x of Chrome portable to the latest (43.0.2357.65 )

If I click on the icon, or launch from command line,
GoogleChromePortable.exe appears in the process table for a few seconds (~5)
then disappears.
I have tried it with Kaspersky paused - same outcome.

Any suggestions for troubleshooting welcome

"CommonFiles\Java" alternative for jPortable Launcher

Submitted by lwc on May 26, 2015 - 3:37pm

JavaPortableLauncherU.nsi is hardcoded in multiple places to use "CommonFiles\Java".
I tried changing it, but it seems not to be used in the compiled version.
Can you add JavaPortableLauncher.ini that includes a custom path to Java?

If you wonder why it's custom, I've used jPortable in Eclipse (a portable compiler), which requires it to be "jre" instead of "CommonFiles\Java".

Thanks!

Google Chrome Portable Extensions in Start Menu

Submitted by PCMasterRaceGabeN on May 20, 2015 - 12:42am

Hello.
After installing Google Chrome Portable, I decided to download an extension they offered from the Chrome Web Store. After it was installed I noticed that it put the extension in a folder called 'Chrome Apps' in my Start Menu. Does this folder only appear on my user account, or does it appear on everyone's user account? (I'm using Windows 7 by the way.)

Thanks.
