Often when portable apps platform download update it stucks on 100%. At the moment when it downloads google chrome 44 it stops on 41 936 Kb of 41 949 Kb and then shows Reget Error, file: http://cache.pack.google.com/edgedl/chrome/win/F19450DC/8491D4A8/44.0.24...

Same with Opera, Process Explorer and uTorrent

Is there a way to update portable apps manually without loosing settings and personal information or fix this error?

Unable to access LibreOffice 5.0.0 thru the portableapps.com Platform 12 or as a stand alone on Hard drive. I get the following message

Hi,

I use Google chrome portable as my default browser. Most of the time I have opened this browser with a bunch of tabs.

Nevertheless, if I do a search in windows 10 (I had similar problems in Windows 8) and pass that query to the default browser, a new browser window pops up instead of using the existing one. And that's not the only problem: The new browser window does not own all my personal extensions which means that it is a totally new environment.

Do you know how I can fix this problem?

Hi,

I noticed I have buttons along the bottom of the screen so I can pull the slider along to rewind a bit or fast forward or pause or stop for *audio* but not for *video.*

How can I apply that same slider for video?

All I can seem to do right now is right click on the screen and choose pause and stop.

I Googled this topic but could not find anything but keyboard shortcuts.

Thanks so much.

I've tried downloading Musescore 2.0.2 a few times today and I keep getting a 403 error.

Hi,
Fan of portableapps like freeplane or audacity I would to know if they can run on a Recent surface 3 tab with Windows 8.1 ?

Hi,

on my windows 10 PC (the problem existed also during windows 8.1 before the upgrade to 10) I am able to make Chrome portable as my default browser. Nevertheless, if I want to do a cortana search a window pops up which is titled as "openwith.exe" and says: "class not registered".

On my surface pro it works very well. I assume my registry is somwhow messed up but I have no clue which entry I have to fix. Do you have any tipps?

I am a teacher and I do not have administrator privileges on my computer. Tech will get to it ( I am still waiting from last school year-it isn't priorty.) I am trying to find a way to have a color printer at school so that I can come home and spend time with my family instead of printing at home.

Thanks,

Jen

sorry for language hangup ...

I think of a portable ap as something that doesn't install to Program Files, doesn't write to any hives etc.

I take it Portable Aps Platform is not a portable ap in that sense?

Are there any portable aps to help Portable Aps Platform build a bootable USB with a simplified OS to use as a PE/RE environment? with NTFS file system? which will run Windows-based portable aps?

thanks

Is there a synchronization / backup program which verifies (by content, check sum) files after synchronization automatically?
