General Discussion

Hello, I just downloaded portableapps and put it on my flash drive. Whenever i open one of the apps the menu itself closes. I want to keep it open, is there any way to do this? Also, is there anything I can do that will make it faster?

I know this has been talked about before, but Notepad++ Is crashing, even with the current update. Anyone know why this is happening?

hello to everyone, because I am a newcomer in the area of portable and is a time that decided to create my portable, but what I still do not know, and wanted a help of you.

I wanted to know how to put such a picture of my name at the time that the laptop is open as is appearing in the portable portableapps.com here, now I am grateful for the help.

even more!

Putting an image of openness in portable software?

I am unsure exactly where this should be posted as there is no direct e-mail or forum section for the discussion of time travel, but as a side note to whoever has the ability to update the website the page for ClamWin Portable (https://portableapps.com/apps/utilities/clamwin_portable) states it was stolen from the year 20,008. I assume flux capacitors were involved.

Hi all.

Is it possible to have subfolders in the menu? Something like Office->Writer...

Thank you
Chris

I am looking for a well made, reasonably fast USB drive for portable apps, any ideas? It seems the advertised fast drives are great for large files not the smaller ones of a portable app. I am using a San Disk Titanium and it works well but it's getting old and flaky.

Thanks, Bill

hi I have just brought a 20gig hard drive and was just wondering if PA would be the best thing to put on it.

i have been using PA on my 2gig flash drive, i am use to it and think it is a wonderful program.

I just want to know if there is a better application more suited to portable hard drives than PA so can you help me out. i have not really found out any good sites for help.

This is a note for all users in the PortableApps.com Community:

I was out looking for a different file manager and noticed that Free Commander has a PA version hosted on the official site. Just wanted John to be aware that others are jumping on the bandwagon too.

Does that mean you could maybe offer to link to it from PortableApps.com?

I love the portable apps suite and have installed it on several flash drives. The problem I have is that in explorer it shows the name of each drive as "PortableApps.com". I would like to be able to distinguish which drive is which without looking at the drive contents. Is there any way to rename it like maybe PortableApps.com_1,_2 or maybe _a,_b etc. or something along those lines? I've tried using the drive manager but it doesn't even show that name.

Thanks
