Is there a way to copy the u3 drive(both partions) from one flash drive to another one? Also the autorun would need to be preserved.

Im using Pstart and pam but want autorun to give me the option to open pstart or pam. so i can pick pstart if im at college cuz it has no icon try for pam, or open pam if im at home or something and i have an icon try.

thanks

right. im really really new to this portable applications thing but it seems like a really good thing. so ive used the trial of ceedo, read alot about u3 and am now using this nice portableapps thingy.

Anyone know why the off-topic posts aren't showing up in the tracker?

To change a drive letter upon insertion of usb is quite simple. Just one prerequisite: administrator.
So, you need a batch file with the following line:
diskpart /s %temp%\text.txt
and a text file saved as "text.txt" in your temp dir (%temp%) with the following lines:
select volume=F
assign letter=T
In this case, F is the current drive letter (F:\) and T is the drive letter that I want (T:\).

A New version of PStart has come out. Check it out if you have not already a few new features.

Hey everyone,

I have a SanDisk Cruzer micro 1Gb thumb drive. It's the non U3 version.
I can run portableApps.com apps and other executables off of it without a problem.
I was wondering what is so special about U3 - and even, what it is and does it do? (besides that it's another standard I guess)

I tried to put U3 Skype on my drive but it wouldn't let me, so I guess U3's standards are a little bit different other than just having an app not use the windows registry.

Can someone explain/point out some major differences between a regular smart drive and between a U3 one.

Thanks

I really love these portable apps, they are stinking amazing! I also have a e107 pen drive setup that is suppose to work so I can develope PHP/MySQL apps. It's on my 30 gig ipod and I think it would work on a flash drive. Please let me know what I gotta do, thanks!

[Subject changed by moderator JTH. "help pls?" is a pretty useless subject.]

I have build my portable app and will publish it on my own web site (because it is freeware, not GPL).

On my web site I would like to refer in this context to further Portable Apps on this page (portableapps.com) and show the PortableApps.Com logo for this purpose.

Any legal/copyright/property concerns with this?

Thanks,

Franz
