General Discussion

As advised by @John T. Haller i'm posting this here on the forums.

When using Google Chrome Portable - https://portableapps.com/apps/internet/google_chrome_portable - If you have any another instances of Chrome open (e.g Chromium, Chrome dev/beta, etc) the "Google Chrome Portable" process remains in the background. Only after all these are closed, the process in gone.
Is there something that can be done about this?

Hi
How can I access all versions of the apps?

Hi,
using PortableApps for years, and
always done updates by:
1. download fresh version from https://portableapps.com
2. install over the installed path

Question:
- is this proper "update" strategy, or
- should i use application own update like in the Thunderbird ?

Thanks.

Brief description:
Link on application page for current version of McAfee Stinger Portable appears to be broken.

PortableApp:

McAfee Stinger Portable
on-demand fake alert and common virus remover
Download from PortableApps.com
Version 12.2.0.234 for Windows, English
19MB download / 19MB installed

(Links removed by mod JTH)

Please investigate.

Thank you, have a great day, and stay safe!

I love PortableApps. I used it on windows to seperate cookies and identites with firefox portable. What do you recommend for Linux as I'm looking to switch to Ubuntu?

On the https://portableapps.com/apps/internet page, the Link to Otter Browser points to:
https://portableapps.com/apps/internet/private_browsing
instead of
https://portableapps.com/apps/internet/otter-browser-portable

(My apologies if I'm posting in the wrong place)

Buongiorno,
volevo chiedere una informazione:
E' possibile applicare una cartella personale fuori da quella già esistente di "Documenti"?
Se è già possibile, potreste cortesemente mostrarmi i passaggi?

Hi John,

I keep being tempted clicking the PortableApps.com logo and text on the lower left of the platform window when I want to go to the website.

Only to find it is not active or linked. What a waste of screen real estate!

Of course I have other means with Help - Support if I feel too lazy to just type it into my browser.

Maybe something to consider for a quiet hour.

Thanks!

Hello,

Wow I just plugged my PortableApps drive into a laptop with a high-definition screen and it came out looking like this,

The icon is all jagged and crude looking. I assume it's an .ico, correct?

Any chance this can be updated for computers with HD screens?

Thanks

I plugged the u disk into another computer and ran portable chrome in portableapps, but I found that the user settings and extensions of chrome disappeared, how can I keep my chrome extensions from disappearing because of changing computers, I am new to this, please forgive my ignorance. Much thanks!
