General Discussion

Hi,

i know that we can compare the position and layout of the PDF image, but am not sure whether we can compare the image as a whole.

can anyone help me on this?

Thanks,

I am just a portable software beginner, anyone has appinfo editor?
thanks.

Out of curiosity would it be possible to prevent,suppress or disable chromes internet connection locally.

The reason I ask is that I've enabled --allow-file-access-from-files for local use. I'm curious but could this be used maliciously if a user somehow accessed the web? At present I've not allowed them any way to get to the web but I'm curious about the security risks this may present.

Perhaps I'm being over cautious or maybe naive. I wondered if anyone has come across this dilemma before?

Hi,

I've been using jPortable for a while and like it a lot. Now I need to work on a project with an old library that requires the older Java versions (it won't work with the current jPortable_7*). Where can I download the older jPortable_6* packages? Thanks for any help.

Hello All,

I have a 'kit' that I use regularly. It includes the following types of apps (none of which follow the portableapps standard - in fact I haven't used portableapps in the past and am not using it now, though I'd like to):

Applications which are not portable, must be installed and registered (they requiring licensing).
Applications which are 'portable - i.e. I copy them on and run them without installation).
Applications which are 'portable' and run in the command line interface.
Python scripts which run in the terminal.

I've noticed this on a few forums but the solution found by others is not working for me.

When chrome is closed a chrome.exe is still running in the task manager. In the following forums they recommend disabling background apps, which I have.

The current work around solution I've found is to use a bat to kill the processes:

taskkill /f /im chrome.exe 2>nul

In the header box above, the last line is probably meant to be "Please donate, so we can keep releasing new and updated awesome apps!", with donate, new, updated & apps being the links.

The way it is now, both "update" and "release" are incorrectly used, at least in a grammatical sense, anyway.

I use PortableApps on my hard drive because I like the cleanliness and maintenance. Today the launcher offered to upgrade a few apps, including Notepad++Portable, and I let it do so. The next time I tried opening a file with N++ and it got stuck - I could see the program window and the file I tried to open (and a couple other files that had been open before), but on top of that was a never-ending splash screen. I forcefully closed it, tried running it again, and it said it needed to clean up and then I could open it again.

I really need your help.

Every time I close an app without a regular exit, on next launch this message will show:

"Last exit of [appname] portable didn't restore settings. Would you try to restore local and portable settings now?"

In many cases I prefer logging off my Windows without exit softwares manually, I feel OK with that. But this message is just annoying. How to avoid it?

Hi im toady

I work on the cyberfox project witch is a x64bit variant of Firefox based from there source code.

I have put allot of time and resources into this project and do offer a portable version of cyberfox.

My question is how do i get it submitted to your awesome collection of great apps.

Im not sure your views on x64bit applications but would really like to provide my user base with the ability to automatically update cyberfox through the portable apps platform or even download it via your application.

Please let me know what steps i need to take.
