General Discussion

I run FF 3.6.12 from memory stick.

My wishto homepage is located on the same stick in the same folder. (PC Win XP mostly)

The systems I use are many and varied, they may already have allocated drive letters and I want to have the chosen page load as homepage.

It is in effect a favourites page - but personilised with data that cannot be put in passwords/auto complete features. And is colour coded and 3D.

I use it exclusively - I just wanted to be that bit easier to use.

I was looking for something fast & easy & portable to mount stuff & found d.tools topic hire, but looks like its dead & does not offer any solutions.

In any case I found a Virtual CDRom Control Panel. its small(33.0 Kb) & portable & you can mount stuff pretty fast without any hassle, with just couple of clicks. Its not 100% user friendly but its free & portable & small & once u understand how it works it wont be a too big of an issue.

System Requirements
===================
- Windows XP Home or Windows XP Professional

I seem to remember upgrading an app was as easy as installing over the top. However I cannot seem to locate the resource listing how to go about this exactly?

Hi folks,

been using Eraser portable fine for a long time in XP, but in 64 bit Win 7, the option to select anything other than 35 passes (Edit>Preferences>Erasing) does not 'stick'. Any danger someone could look into it please? Thanks.

Are there any Portable virtual desktop apps in development?

I see several different versions of VirtuaWin floating around the forums but they all seem to be dead.

I know DM2 had a PA.c development version, but the application itself hasn't been updated in eons so I doubt it will make it to a full PortableApps release.

I looked up the only other open source virtual desktop application I know, Virtual Dimension but that project seems dead too.

Am I out of luck?

Typically, if I try to browse SF for older versions, it times out, maybe because there are SO many files.
The beta interface works better - it still times out occasionally, but at least not EVERY time.:

Hello. Sorry if this question has been asked before, or if this is the wrong forum to post it in...

I want to:

1. Partition my USB thumb drive (Kingston DT 2.0, 4GB) so that i can install PortableApps on one of the partitions.

2. Make the PortableApps partition "read-only", so that viruses do not attack that partition.
(You know those filthy viruses that create autorun.inf files in the usb drives, so i don't want that stuff !)

============
Is it possible/planned to make application grouping? at least separators
Folders as it made in xp/w7 + separators could be the perfect thing for people who have a lots of portable applications.
============
Also i would like to suggest more configurable right menu, or even ability to hide it. I store my music and photos and other files encrypted and those folders are useless for me, but it could be nice if i can add some custom folders or even add explorer shourtcuts like my computer/control panel/cmd/etc.

Hello and sorry if the subject is somewhat confusing.
I am at a loss in the following matter:
I teach at college and all of our classrooms are fitted with a video projector and a computer, equipment I use for teaching. Since almost anybody is granted access to the computer it is highly likely that they are not free of viruses and malware.
As of now (since the 10+ infection) I used a usb stick to transfer data for the computer in my office to the one in the classroom.

Whatever happened to MuiltMedia PAL?

That was a good collection, and saved me the trouble of setting up my own.
I could not find it in a search here. Perhaps under another name?

A collection of Audio/Video players creators.

VLC Player
Cool Player
Infra Recorder
Audacity

and many others....

I had this downloaded on my old computer.
IS there a link to it that still works?
