General Discussion

Due to an oversight, we now have 2 "Apps" entries in the system tray right-click menu. The first for the same Apps popup menu as in the main menu with Check For Updates, Get More Apps, etc in it. The second for the new Apps list in the system tray right-click menu. Now, having both is a bit silly. So, we have some options.

Aren´t there any downloads of older PortableApps versions available?

When googling 11.2 it wasn´t officially presented anywhere, and most links actually pointed to the newer.

The PortApps version of FreeFileSync is version 6.2 although 6.8 is availabele. Why is it like that? May be because the newer versions do not work properly / do not start since (like it is with me) they cause an error with some xml file?

This discussion was split off from the bug tracker and is preserved here. I wanted to ensure the helpful bits were retained and the discussion continued, since the bug tracker is normally cleared of comments.

Hi
It seems that if you do save page as, chrome portable still write files onto the c: and there does not seems to be a way to avoid that. Anyone have any clue?

Hello i have been using portable apps under the radar for years, but i had to make an account to show people this one.

Im sure everyone here has heard of jotti malware scans (http://virusscan.jotti.org/en), if not you really should. It is an online virus scan that uses 18 of the top virus programs to scan each file you upload. The one problem with it is you can only scan one file at a time and its really time consuming.

Sorry if there are any post that explain this, but i coudnt find.

I'm having a problem with my flashdrive.

Something is "destroing" my autorun.inf file. My computer is not infected.

What could it be?

This was originally supposed to be my bio, but it turned into so much more. This is the story of how PortableApps changed my life.

My name is Zackery and though I am young, I have big dreams. I don't know exactly, but after I graduate college, I will definitely get a job in the technology area. Programming or game design are my top two choices.

Even though good equipment is costly, my family doesn't have much money so I spend most of my days at my decade-old Dell desktop with Windows XP doing whatever I can with 256mb of RAM and a 15gb hard drive.

Would it be possible to add the canary builds of Google Chrome to Portable Apps. Obviously it would need to be updated a lot though.

Well, is this possible? I mean, is possible that installed apps to be "aware" of other intalled apps, instead of using the Operating System defaults? (Like, PortableThunderbird being aware that PortableFirefox is installed and open the links from a mail there)

I've searched through the forum, and only found this old thread https://portableapps.com/node/700 about that topic, but, since it's from early 2006, and I can't find anything related since then.
