The Pop Up from Portable APS

Submitted by jwp1000 on October 20, 2015 - 7:51am

Hi guys, I used portable aps for a long time.
longer than five years. Everyday at work and at home.
I have flush mounted usb attached to my work PC that has my open source aps that I use.

After a recent update of the platform. I now get the donate screen coming up everytime.
This is great - I want to make a one time or small monthly payment and should have started a long time ago.

My question is if I give money does the donate screen go away so I can go to work?

Thanks

JWP

2 - The open structure of the menuing system that lets you add non-PortableApp listed apps is a wonderful thing. Its made everything I do easier. The fact is most apps I use are portable. Having a simple way to organize and use them on several computers has made my life better.

We're investigating an outage that occurred between the hours of 3:56AM and 6:26AM. It appears to be due to a failure in Rackspace's Cloud Databases, a redundant system for mySQL databases that we host our backed on. I'll be posting an incident summary once I have all the details. Our apologies for any inconvenience.
