General Discussion

Hallo,
where can i start a topic of the beginning the PortableApps (PA) to work.
When i start PA my whole Desktop clears out.
The Tsakbar, the Taskbar Icons, the Quicklauch bar and the Windows Icons in TAskabar are not removed, only the main Desktop.
The workaround id to delete the 1st Explorer Task and nmanually restart the Explorer.
After the restart all Desktop rebuild properly.
Thanks for advise

I see you use a service called Mollom to filter messages submitted in this forum. But how smart is it to use a 3rd party that stores all messages submitted by a particular person on all forums (that use Mollom) all over the internet? It's like giving big brother all your ideas and thoughts on a silver platter... I'm personally shocked that such a service exists let alone is being used by PoartableApps!

I did search, and many pages and a lot of reading about team speak and skype and all that. What is the suggested app or program like old Roger Wilco or Team speak or even the Instant messaging programs I can use for multiple people a small amount 4 to 10, to voice chat while playing video games like Quake 3 arena, COD and such, that are light on resources, don't mess with frame rates, decent quality, easy to use for the people I am going to setup/introduce. Most of us have OLD crummy computers. P.S I have an OLD post about this, wasn't sure to add to it or do this...

Hello,

I just recently installed OpenTTD, and I discovered that I couldn't play it because Windows Defender believes that it has the Torjan Win32.Varpes.N!cl on it.

I'm not sure what to do about it; I don't believe that PortableApps would ship Malware, but reinstalling it gives the same problem.

So, is it Malware, or is my antivirus being sensitive?

Hi,

Was just doing an a long overdue update of my PortableApps library, and the Launcher Updater is refusing to update Geany Portable. From the 404 message, it appears to be looking for the wrong filename/URL - there is no .paf.exe in the filename that the update is using, just .exe, whereas the sourceforge copy does end .paf.exe

You can see a screenshot of the error message here : https://www.dropbox.com/s/0x44sblnfp99z7e/Screenshot%202016-05-26%2011.2...

I choose download but never get the install screen. Have tried numerous times. What might be the reason.

Have installed previous on flash drives with no problem. Want to do a new, clean install.

Thanks.

Error downloading UNetbootin Portable, with updater or direct download (https://portableapps.com/apps/utilities/unetbootin-portable)

The PortableApps Platform gives an error when trying to download/update WinBoard.

I can't figure out how to apply the themes I make using PAM Builder to the PortableApps drive menu. It appears to me that you cannot apply themes other than the ones listed in the "options" tab. This is very frustrating because this app looks very promising once I know how to use it. Now I do like some of the themes the drive menu comes with, however there is a limited amount and I would really like to personalize my drive menu (like you can personalize Windows) but I can't find a way to apply the themes I make. Am I the only one who is frustrated with this

Portable Teamviewer's latest update requires exiting the Teamviewer prior to installing the update, This is not a problem if you are doing a local update. An update on a remote computer is a different situation.

You can't update while Teamviewer is running but you need it for remote access. Google's Chrome browser has an app-for-that.
