General Discussion

Checked forum, haven't found anything relevant.

So, I have a few nice standalone portable programs and I just want to add links to .exe in PA launcher menu. No need to pack them in .paf (and some of them doesn't allow that, like password keeper program).

Is there a simple way to do that? Like an archive with complete folder structure and one file to insert path to exe?

The Start.exe isn't working on my windows 7 comp. but it works fine on other computer. I also have Norton could this be causing it?

Hello! My work computer now has Windows 7 without any admin rights. This machine is pretty locked down. I thought a workaround would be portableapps, however it will not allow me to run the portableapps app fom my thumbdrive. I configured it on my other machine, but still this work machine won't let me run it.

Any advice on a workaround for this ridiculous Windows 7 machine?

Thanks!

A few weeks ago I was raving about portable apps and how handy the platform launches apps and I can have my settings and bookmarks in Firefox. But recently there has been a lot of updates on a number of apps and now everything has been going t*ts up. Firefox keeps reporting that flash, shockwave, silverlight is out of date. I update and it reports that all is fine. The next time I use it, it reports that it still out of date. Now I can not update cos when I try it asks me to close firefox, I close it but it still thinks it is open. I tried moving the files manually, but still no.

hi

maybe it's the wrong place , but i did not know where ask this question

well some years ago , i bought cool edit pro 2000

i love this program, Audacity is a good alternative

but cool edit is still my fav audio editor

now, it can work under xp and windows 7

but it was codec for w98se or w2000

i would like to make it portable because i don't want to harm w7 and xp
and because i'm a novice

well is there a tutorial to make a portable version of my legit old copy of cool edit pro 2000?

So I go download portable nethack, because I don't want to install an app.

To my surprise, the downloaded file is an exe.

In my books, a portable app does not require installation. So what's up with the executable? I expected a zip that I could extract to a folder, and I expected to see NethackW.exe inside that zip, so I could simply run it.

I can't seem to find the page that listed which portable apps are compatable with wine.

I'm having some problems with some running in wine in Fluppy(and offshoot of Puppy).

Apparently my searching skills are not up to snuff.

thanks

I had an old version of PA. Working. Downloaded new version 10. Installed.
I have no clue whether the new replaced the old or whether 2 can run at same time.

I have 2 PA windows open, HELP says version 1.6 for both. Is PA built to run in stereo mode? Where then is "10" ?

Also the AppProgram menu is higher than the available screen space. (Only 1 line in the Win7 Taskbar. The lowest part is unreadable. )

I explain: when I restart the system, I have to exit manually these programs in order for the next boot they start properly. Can you fix it that I don't have to quit them manually at restart and they can start the next time I boot up? I hope you can understand the situation.
