General Discussion

It appears that our revenue from AdSense was halted sometime this month. This appears to coincide with AdSense halting monetization of sites that glorify or exploit the war in Ukraine. This is devastating to the stability of the project as AdSense is the primary revenue source supporting it. I'm investigating with Google and will report back as I have news.

With the release of qBittorrent v4.4.0, v4.4.1 & v4.4.2 portable I have noticed that the program will randomly lock up and become unresponsive.

The lack of response will last from 2 to 30 seconds or so, but will eventually return to normal after that time.

This is not caused by excessive CPU usage by other programs or such and returning to v4.3.9 solves the issue completely.

Does anyone have any idea what the issue with these releases might be?

TIA

Can't download McAfee Stinger Portable 12.2.0.424
Tried Windows XP and Windows 8.1.

When try to download the paf, get this error:
The requested URL was not found on this server.

When try to install through Platform, get this error:
File not found (Error 404)

Is there a setting that will allow the platform to close instead of minimizing to the systray?

It seems the sounds on button doesn't work because there's no audio files? (there is on the web version and hosted on ADR's github)

I am wondering (when using an older, slower computer) if it would be better to use the default, installed media viewer, or the portable VLC that I have on my USB drive--not in terms of graphic performance and the quality of the display, but in terms of slowing down the old computer itself.

When I am working on an older, slower computer, I am a bit conscious about not slowing down the computer to the point of it freezing up or something like that.

I apologize if this is the wrong forum to post my question in.

I am receiving the error "Call to a member function get() on null" when using the following download links from the portableapps.com respective app pages:

Perhaps I'm missing something obvious, but I'm not seeing the current PortableApps.com Platform version number in the Options dialog box. Would it be reasonable to add it to the 'General' or 'Updater' tab of that dialog box? Or perhaps, even better, create an 'About' tab for that dialog box that includes the version number. Doing this will not add another menu item, but will make the version number readily available.

There's another recent thread on this topic, but the OP wasn't behaving nicely or respectfully, so I didn't want to post there.

When trying to download updates, I sometimes get this error message:

---------------------------
PortableApps.com Platform

Unable to download the file. This could be due to a proxy or network issue or the hosting server not permitting downloads from your location.

For example, currently getting this message when trying to update A Dark Room.

So I manually deleted the entire installation. Tried downloading the latest version of the portable apps software whih is PortableApps.com_Platform_Setup_21.2.2.paf

Installed that. But it won't let me download any packages for installation.

Just the same stupid message: "Unable to download file. This could be due to a proxy server or network issue or..."
