OOP launch performance test results

Submitted by PollieXmas on January 8, 2009 - 3:25am

Hi Guys,

For those who are interested...

I have an (2,5") 250GB HDD in an NexStar 3 USB/esata enclosure with which I performed a launch test of OOP on three different machines to determine an optimum setup for my PA. I use PA extensively, therefore the lack of performance in my work environment (Machine 1) was hindering my productivity.

I chose OOP because of the three poor performers PAM, VLC and OOP, OOP was the one that took the longest to launch.

Machine 1 - USB 2.0:

Unable to Resume in Portable IDM v5.12.8: Incomplete Downloaded Files are Gone!

Submitted by misterbean on January 7, 2009 - 10:38pm

Hello. Yesterday, I tried to use Portable IDM v5.12.8 to download videos. However, when I reuse it this morning, all incomplete downloaded files previously stored in the main window are GONE! Is there any tips to fix it or other portable apps that possess this facility and faster than IDM?

Thanks.

some apps don't work

I use portableapps two years ago, and I think it is the most useful tool that I have used. But since several months ago some portableapps don't work in "some computers", In fact both clamwin and pnotes just start in my home pc. I can't understand what happen?, maybe the antivirus?

Thanks in advance.

So with the first pre-release of Toucan 2.0.4 out in the beta testing forums I am now looking at features for the next version. One of the things that irks me the most about the current version is the manual, it is difficult to use and it hasn't kept up with the lastest features.

So here is my question to you the community, are there any help files or manuals for a program that you really like? The more links the better! I shall download and have a look at as many as possible before diving into creating a new manual for Toucan, so your input will make a huge difference.
