in short of it this software lets you make application portable if you have installation package of it

i want to ask what you guys think of it

i made winamp portable and from 35mb it haves now 105mb but is now portable i dont need to extract anything to %appdata% for it to work on clean pc

Just curious if its possible to map the PA Documents folder to my SkyDrive (C:\Users\username\SkyDrive) while also keeping local copies just in case I don't have internet access? This would be impractical if I used many different computers with many different account names. But, I'm only using two machines (work and home) and have my user name the same on both so there should not be a mapping issue. The reason I ask is because I save everything to my thumbdrive and then do dumps over to my Skydrive for backup.

Portable Browser is virus protect?

How do you change the portable apps platform's menu title. By default is says "PortableApps.com" and has a logo, but I'd like to customize it like this: https://portableapps.com/files/images/elements/customusb/custom_menu.jpg

I have looked through all of the files in the portable apps folder, but I've been unable to find the image that is the current title.

Any help would be appreciated!

I was running a rootkit scan after dealing with a PUP continuing to reinstall itself and it reported a folder in my PortableApps drive called PortableAppsox that is hidden from Windows.

Hi all,
I just came across this site by accident.

My question is can I use portable apps on my Asus transformer T3

Ideas or instructions would be appreciated.
Thanks

Hello.
Is there any possibility to launch *.lnk files referring to windows installed applications from portableapps platform? I'd like to integrate portableapps starter and windows menu start to one unit and it could be a grate alternative for modern windows (like 8 and 8.1) to have a one starting menu with portable applications and locally installed windows applications, if there will be a possible to execute shortcuts from portableapps platform.
