General Discussion

Increasing the menu size or number of menu items from 19 in small font via a number specified in a user variable in the .INI file settings would be a really nice not to mention easy feature to implement.

I would like to at least double the size since my PortableApps menu is a catch all for all the programs I do not wish install into Windows and its Start Menu but have a lot of favourites in consequence..

Attached are my Stardock Start10 Windows Start Menu replacement and PortableApps Menus for comparison as I rebuild my Windows CU after a crash...

Hi:
On on of my computers, A Dell laptop, Windows 7, 8gb Ram, 250gb hard disk, Intel Core I7 first of second generation (yes it is generally slow), I find that, after downloading an application update, the installation hangs in the middle and doesn't install. On my other computer and on my USB thumb drive, it updates the PortableApps platform without difficulty.

So my question is whether anyone has a suggestion regarding how to to fix this problem?

Thanks
Jojo

Hello Everyone, I am new to this forum.

I have used Portable Apps for years with much success. I am a big fan of programs that do not write to the registry and use little resources.
I am working on converting a Android TV Box to a PC. This will be used as a mini workstation for office functions. I could put the Apps on a USB or a SD card. This will be mostly used for: Office, Firefox, a photo viewer, Printing, Photoshop etc. The other stuff like Kodi and all of the TV tools would be removed. Can someone give me a little direction on this project? Can this even work at all?

Thought you may like to know that TinyTask v1.61 was released 2 days ago, but the download is still invalid.

What's the story?

For some reason the built-in VPN in Opera won't work on my Windows 7 PC. It will only work when I run it inside a Virtual Machine in VirtualBox. Does anybody know why that is or how to fix it?

This is really annoying. I was using Opera Portable in a Virtual Machine in VirtualBox. I saved my VirtualBox session. When I loaded it up again Opera had updated to version 45 which has a completely new look and all my pinned and unpinned tabs were gone and there was nothing in the history!

How can I prevent Opera 45.0 Portable from installing updates automatically?

Is there a simple way to download all of the PApps.? very impressed with the few that I have downloaded.
Thanks.

Salut!

I cannot figure out how to pass command line arguments to Blender.exe
Is it possible?

Finally, I've figured out how to open FBX* file in Blender*
(Blender is 3d graphics editor. FBX is non-native format, that must be imported, instead of opening).

The command line is:

blender.exe -P im_fbx.py -- MyModel.fbx

(while im_fbx.py reads:
import sys
import bpy
argv = sys.argv
argv = argv[argv.index("--") + 1:] # get all args after "--"
bpy.ops.import_scene.fbx(filepath=argv[0])
)

On "SmartDefragPortable_5.6.0.1078.paf.exe" AVAST antivirus says: "Win32-Malvare-gen".
