General Discussion

not sure its a real opensource, did we had issues with that calendar+kanban app?
is it generall a problem or only if the dev requests to delete it or did we deleted it to prevent quarel?
stumbled over app with this licence and thinking if should put lower in research list or cancel.
thx

mentioned update method is kinda gold standard for portable.
i think even better would be if one puts data and setting folder out of main app directory so one could delete old app and just adjust linking in new app.
not sure if all portable apps or at least these here can this, need feedback from team on this.
i maybe ask seperately, as important and very interesting.

Summary

At about 1:25pm on April 3, 2025, an outage due to a bug in a Drupal module upgrade affected multiple components of the PortableApps.com infrastructure. This affected visiting our website and downloading/updating apps via the PortableApps.com Platform. The website and app downloads/updates were brought back online at 10:35pm on April 4th with outgoing email notifications, RSS feeds, and connectivity for XP/Vista being fixed over the coming days.

A Module Upgrade Goes Wrong: April 3 @ 1:25pm

Hi All,

I wanted to get some feedback from the community on approaching apps as they drop compatibility with Windows 7/8. My typical approach is to create a legacy package of the last supported version, automatically (when practical) create a legacy copy alongside as the user upgrades to the incompatible version of Win 7, and make the legacy package available in the PA.c App Store and from the app's homepage.

hi dear community,
how are the experiences with using portable libreoffice on flash drive like usb pen?
are the standard sandisc usb 3.0 or up enough for some spreadshit use?
or need to look for a small simply spreadshit?
would possibly like also to open some impress presentation.
hope its possible.
happy to hear your experience!
thx!

hi,
for me and possibly for here.
i heard you can auto check websites for changes/updates.
no idea if same as on status checker.
maybe you know or use such win tool.
have no further info, please share your info.
thx
ps.
i let update few of your apps on seriouse huge tec site to save traffic and increase popularity.

to prevent forgeting, extreme long unpatched time and unneeded official pointing out sec issues,
a simply added contact form could be also a possibility to direct convert to a task or appointment to schedule it.
it would be a huge improvement in all areas, like said.

We're back online as of 10:35pm today (April 4). Website and Platform usage should be fully functional. The site went offline at 1:25pm yesterday (April 3) and I updated via all our social media platforms while the site was down. I'll put together a summary of what happened sometime this weekend. Thanks for your patience and support.
