General Discussion

Hi,
I was just wondering if it still would be possible to have a zipped version of the portable applications available for Downloading.

I post this question because I'm a big fan of portable applications, and I created myself a small programm (downloading +launching).
I also have a website on the program. http://users.telenet.be/Robvdb/PortOffExec.htm

I also used to have some portable applications from this site; such as Portable Firefox, Portable Thunderbird, Portable AbiWord and OpenOffice.org Portable.

But I noticed today that the zip files are no longer available for downloading. Instead the download files are now xxxxx.paf.exe

If you'd like to comment on the story PortableApps Suite 1.0, Firefox Portable 2.0 and more, please feel free to do so here. If you have any support questions, please see the Support section of this website or the support forum for the app you are having an issue with. No help is given in this comments topic, thanks.

Hi all, I am looking for an opensource equivalent for Robocopy.
Does anyone know of one?

Thanks

Are there any problems or issues arising from putting PortableApps on a U3 USB Flash Drive? Would I be better off getting a Flash Drive without U3 software installed?

Thanks.

I am new to the Portable Apps discussions and I must say John, I am incredibly impressed.

What do you have in the works?
(no I am not asking for timelines) just the apps you are slowly working on to eventually get released is all...

Thinstall is a client-less application virtualization solution that allows applications to be packaged into simple EXE files that run in user-mode isolated from the host PC without installation or changes to the local desktop’s registry and file system.

"Thinstalled" applications can run on locked-down PCs with no device drivers installed enabling administrators to maintain a secure, clean, and stable user desktop.

A little request:

Couldn' t you ADD a second line with links to second, third (and so on) pages on TOP of each thread page (in order to let us reach follow-up pages WITHOUT having to scroll all the way down each time...

what's the best portable partitioning program out there?

How do you create the autorun file could someone upload or something. Ive tried to copy it from page on this site then ive also had the program make its own nothing works to make it autorun all it does is change drive icon

Obviously I have no idea what's going on behind the scenes with the Firefox licensing and all, but as of tomorrow it'll have been a month since a new announcement. It seems like John & friends still reply promptly, so I assume the only thing slowing the process down is technical/business issues. I for one feel something really big is coming.

Not trying to sound like I'm impatient - I appreciate the work that goes into portableapps.com and am very thankful for your dedication.
