Is it possible when you want to upgrade to a larger drive to just copy across the info on your current drive onto the new one or do you have to install everything again?

I am planning to install the PortableApps Suite and I read the "Installing PortableApps Suite" and it said it is best to install it right to the root directory of your portable drive (X:\ where X is the drive letter).

My question is... where is the root directory of my portable drive?? Do I just chick on to the letter to where portable drive is at..is that the root directory??

When I saw dosbox I had to wonder, what for?

Well now I know! Check out this old DOS game, it's a classic! It plays better with dosbox than it did on my old computer when I paid good money for it.

Hi guys, new to portableapps.com. Need some help/direction.
I have installed portableapps suite (Base Edition) on my external hard drive. I’m trying to find a guide on how to use the Menu. Or have I downloaded the wrong thing.
I want to store & play my music (using VLC). I also want to download some other portable applications directly into the menu but not mastered it yet.

I have read here briefly that there are reports of false positives with PA in connection with apps. However, I saved the registration email to html formay onto my desktop to view outside of Thunderbird once I had closed PA.

Imagine my surprise when AVG report a trojan from this file when I attempted to open it within firefox from my desktop installation of Windows Vista.

What gives ?

And how do I fix this trojan issue so as not to upset owners of systems I wish to use when overseas ? Would be downright unhealthy should a trojan alert appear on their system.

just unzip it to ur theme folder. that's it!

Hello everyone, i had just got my 8 gig memory stick today specifically for portable apps. I installed the standard version today but the menu would not load. So i installed the base version and decided to build off of that.

I installed pidgen and open office immediately after i installed base, and when i did so i unplugged the device and pluged it back in to make sure it worked properly, and it did.
