General Discussion

I wanted to have a discussion on the state of Windows 2000 support and whether it is worth continuing the limited support we do offer.

Background

Windows 2000 was fully discontinued on July 31, 2010, nearly 3 years ago, when Microsoft ended the extended support phase. No new security patches are issued for it. Windows 2000 shows up with 0.05% of the market according to NetMarketShare (as of 5/31/2013).

Current App Support

---------------------------
PortableApps.com Platform
---------------------------
Download Error: File Not Found (404) on file Outdated download link removed

OS: Win7
AntiVir: Avast

COMO SE HACE UN PROGRAMA PORTABLE CON PORTABLES APP ... CUAL ES EL PASO LA SECUENCIA ... ALGUN VIDEO TUTORIAL GRACIAS

This has happened a few times over, and it keeps happening. Whenever PA.com sees an update for Google Chrome, it starts downloading (and steal focus!) only to discover that the update is "not valid and cannot be installed" by displaying a message about it (and stealing focus a second time!)

Again, this is not the first time. This appears to happen at each major release for Chrome. If the download is corrupt somehow, please fix it. If the download is not there yet somehow, don't update. Either way it's bothersome...

The support link from the help menu opens with Google Chrome. That's not my default browser, so please open web links in the default browser, instead of arbitrarily in a different one.

Links from other Windows applications do open in my default browser, so it's not system config at fault.

Windows 7 x64 SP1, Opera 12.15, PA.com 12.0 beta 2 (auto-update is enabled, so I have to assume this is the latest version).

hi ,

When PortableApps platform Application is started I want to start some set of applications automatically.
is there any way to do this ?

For those that can't afford a $90 flash drive there is a 4GB version for $65 here: http://www.apricorn.com/products/hardware-encrypted-drives/aegis-secure-...

It appears to have the same security as the Carbide one. And while it doesn't have PortableApps on it adding them shouldn't be difficult.

Hi guys
I'm want to instal Damn Small Linux on my 8GB Micro SD and I don't have access to a computer with admin rites.
The only program I could find to do this is UUI (Universal USB Installer), but its not portable and is thus blocked by the computer.
I'm wondering if there is a portable equivelant that would allow me to do the same?
(and no, begging whoever the admin is to allow me to instal DSL is out of the question XD)

I am trying to run the latest version of McAfee Stinger Portable, posted 13 May, but when the app runs, it comes up with some screen showing command line options and never proceeds to the main GUI of Stinger. Is anyone else experiencing this problem? I am running Windows 7 x64 and it's up-to-date. Thanks.
