Man, there is no place that looks completely appropriate to post this request for an enhancement to PortableApps support pages. It seems somehow inappropriate to post in a forum.

I would like to see in the Version History section of support pages, a link to archives of older versions.

I just found this website and I think its useful to see how a webpage gets displayed in different browsers.
See here for an example.

Why can't the option to choose large or small fonts in the menu options menu be memorized ? Each time I have to reset that option to large fonts

Hey,

Anyone else think a 20x20 or 50x50 avatar would a neat idea for the forums and comments? Just curious. Perhaps 20x20 would be a little more tolerated being a bigger size then the current 16x16 image allowance, but not big enough to take away from the professionalism of the forums.

Just a thought.

I have a 1GB Cruzer Micro that I had successfully changed the autorun drive to launch applauncher.exe . I decided to try and use the Portable Startup utility rather than applauncher. I made the iso installed it and now the autorun drive is no longer seen as a CD drive. Any ideas on how to fix that, or is it broken?

UPDATE: You can recover the CD partition by using the older LPinstaller and a custom iso.

It's always important to make backups of your files, we all know that. But I was wondering about this: sometimes when things don't go as planned there could be a slight change of losing some files when using an application. While often these ar just a few settings sometime this potentially could be more important.

i have gone threw on i have found over 70209 users, does anyone know the official number?

Hi,

if I use portableapps is there anything saved on the host computer? What do I have to do to make sure that after unpluging nothing is left on the host computer?
thanks in advance

Firefox is open source, right? Then why are there so many licensing agreements? We use the company name and the phrase "portable edition" in the menu, we cannot remove auto update, the homepage can not be Portableapps.com by default, and third parties may not modyfy it. What is with that?
