For the past few minutes, I've been trying to close the Portable Apps platform but when I click exit it says,"The following portable apps are still running: FILENOTFOUND. Please close all portable apps and try again. How could I fix this?

I like to express my disappointment that the promised more integration of portableapps into windows hasn't happened

I (Ian) donated $100 when this was expected 2+ yrs ago ..

and I would have donated another 100$ when it was released

it was said that the code for win7 was nearly done.

win 7 is nilly finished and I'm starting to feel like I've bin screwed over!

Recently I had to find a new mouse. I had rewards credit for a certain store and the only mouse they had that really caught my attention was the E-3lue Mazer R Wireless. Until now, Ive never even heard of the company. But the thing that I liked about it was that it had a few "customizable" buttons, looked kinda cool, and was cheap (was a dollar less than my credits). Anyway, I got it in the mail and am dissappointed. With my logitech mouse and microsoft mouse, I was able to assign keyboard shortcuts for any programs.

PA has a santa as of today (may have been there before and I hadn't noticed).

Greetings to all regardless of religion + belief (none in my case) and so on.

To those in different parts of the world, I grew up in the southern hemisphere and now live in the north, the seasonal difference is most noticeable around now.

Enjoy yourselves all and remind us to think of you when your nations holidays come around.

I have a problem.
I installed mpc-hcportable. At the end of the installation, the installer suggested to me to run the application. I agreed. MPC-HC started. I opened propertios and and set up anything because I need. Done. I closed mpc-hcportable. Then I tried to run a video. I started the video and what I saw? all settings that I set up were disappeared.

Hi,

Is it possible to use different directory for C:\Users\username\AppData ?

Thank you

***Question fixed.

I disabled automatic updates in Skype portable and never had them enabled yet I keep getting the update notification once when starting the program and a second time after logging in.

As a side note I used to use skype 4.2 and 5.5 portable. The network refused to allow me to sign in using those. I last used the just a few months ago. Anyone know what happened there?

(If there is a better forum to post suggestions for developers, please let me know.)

Instead of adding an app to the PortableApps directory, I'd like to place it somewhere else, and have a link at the PortableApps directory pointing to that other place.

There are currently two limitations:

1. Portable applications must be located inside the PortableApps directory to be automatically added to the PortableApps start menu. (As far as I understand.)

can't download latest updates, from respective page, for:

ClamWin Portable 0.98.5 (anti-virus)

CDEx Portable 1.7.4 (CD audio extractor)

CrystalDiskInfo Portable 6.2.2 (disk health monitoring)

Battle for Wesnoth Portable 1.12.0

goes to http://sourceforge.net/projects/portableapps/files/ and a popup displays with error: The " (selected file name) " file could not be found or is not available. Please select another file.

But seems to work with the PAc Updater, for :

ClamWin Portable 0.98.5 (anti-virus)

CDEx Portable 1.7.4 (CD audio extractor)

Hello!
uTorrent portable 3.4.2.36615 leaves an entry in the Add/Remove Programs. Win8.1 x64. What I did:
Installed uTorrent, launched it, ran Setup Guide, closed uTorrent, opened Control Panel.

Is there any setting that doesn't allow a portable program to write to the registry?
