I recently updated Thunderbird from a fairly old version.

When I now run Thunderbird portable it does not use the saved passwords - it asks to reenter the email id and password.

Is this the expected behavior or have I messed up the update ?

Hi everyone,

Running Windows 11, and after the latest update to portableapps, v2.9.12, I now get the following error:

Access violation at address 010DC650 in module portableapps.exe read of address 000001E0

How do I solve this issue please?

Thank you kindly

I am trying to update Thunderbird from a older version with ThunderbirdPortable_115.8.1_English.paf.exe (SHA1=DFA2C0D0E551B5938FF9C252BD246E6071FEA586), I keep geting a popup "Extract: error writing to file xul.dll".

Something wrong with the installer or with something at my end?

Downloaded it twice.
Tried to install more than once, even a fresh install. Same error.

I am looking for a portable python app. it is not listed in the available apps in my portableapp setup, but a search shows there was one. The last post in the forum for it was a few years ago. Is it still available?

Not sure if it was you or me, but the help.html file for Etcher states "balenaEtcher Portable Portable is..."

easy fix. have an awesome day.

Going to portableapps.com site I see the "standard" cookie confirmation request. If I choose Manage options, I can "somehow" (one or two checkboxes per option without explanation) edit my choices and I should confirm it somehow. But there are three ovals (micro-buttons) without any text only! White one, black and green. How the user should to know (without studying HTML source), what to choose?

BTW, I didn't find any contact / FAQ / forum ... about the portableapps.com site...

When an update is performed, will portableapps re-enable "Clear History"? I just opened Librewolf to a blank session.

I read the disclaimer in the settings. I've been keenly aware that I must be sure to disable "Clear History" to maintain my session and history. We can see that I have "Remember Browsing and Download History" enabled. But now, 'Clear History when Librewolf closes" is selected. Why would I have both selected?

Not sure, but I also "believe" that I created the related about:config commands. If I did, they are no longer in effect.

After an update, the settings were altered. I think the database cloud backup I have was made before the update. How do I import?

If not, I have a older non-portableapps version. Can I Import a file from there. If so, where do I put it?

Hey guys, I just did it: I finished the tests a few hours ago. I managed to make a portable version of Opera Developer (the missing piece) based on the PortableApps.com Opera GX as a template. As a portable app enthusiast and Developer version fan, it felt like completing a crucial quest! Please, John, this is not a self-promotion - this is a try to cover a long-time need. I made it for my personal use.
