General discussions of portable apps and news.
I noticed this block of text in the readme.txt in /Other/Source for the latest Notepad++ Portable
The SkipBackups entry allows you to disable the launcher's automatic backup functionality. This is useful when running MoneyManagerEX Portable on a USB flash drive with the read/write switch set to read-only, thus avoiding the write-protection errors that would be produced.
However, SkipBackups isn't one of the entries listed in the ini definition block a few lines above that, is not in the Notepad++Portable.ini file, and doesnt appear to be coded into the launcher.
GnuCash 2.2.6 has been released (release notes here). The most notable change to our benefit is the new support for aqbanking 3. Aqbanking provides the online banking support in GnuCash, and version 2 required HKLM registry entries to work in Windows so it wasn't portable for non-admin users. Aqbanking 3 supposedly solves this problem, which should make GnuCash fully portable on non-admin accounts.
I am very curious to know, out of interest alone.
I am totally amazed how easy it is to use these apps, and when I created a new TrueCrypt file, all I had to do was drag all the files over, and that was it! So easy!
So I am confused.... How is that possible?
When we install applications such as firefox, vlc, thunderbird etc, they always write stuff into the registry.
So how do portableapps still work and run without writing and reading anything into the registry?
Thanks.
Can I use PortableApps and all the other apps from this website with confidence knowing that it is 100% legal and not breaching any (c) laws?
Thank you for understanding my concern.
Is there a way I can change the order of apps in the menu. For example, I want Firefox and Thunderbird to appear at the top of the menu. Can this be done?
Thank you.
How can I totally remove an APP so it doesn't show in the menu anymore?
And are there any plans to add a feature in the PortableApps Options menu that allows to remove apps?
Thank you
Hi everyone,
I'm from Sydney Australia and I was looking around for ages about a secure option for me to use Firefox and Thunderbird.
Then I found PortableApps by accident and I wanted to say thanks, I love it.
I created a TrueCrypt encrypted 800MB file on my 1GB USB Stick and loaded all the PortableApps in there.
I followed the following steps.

Hi All,
Can anyone please remind me where I go to disassociate file allocations in XP?
The problem is that once you have associated a portable app with a file and you move the postable app to another drive, Windows does not allow/recognise the new application/association.
I know there is a post here somewhere on how to delete the old associations without editing the registry directly, but I cannot seem to find it.
Thanks
Paul
I know there has been a lot of complaints about the lack of a file types manager especially when using the Vista interface. I found a program that is very good for managing file types and every part of the context menu for any extension on your computer. It's called Types. I was about to make it portable but then I realized it's written in C#. I know it can't be made portable but it's still a decent app and with no install could serve you well.
