Universal Extractor 2 is a tool designed to extract files from any type of extractable file.

Unlike most archiving programs, UniExtract is not limited to standard archives such as .zip and .rar. It can also deal with application installers, disk images and even game archives and other multimedia files.

MediathekView media library with 2000 channels and live-streams

Submitted by UpdateInformer on March 5, 2025 - 2:00pm

its for over 2000 channels with downloads and Live-Streams.
i only ask if the official developers is portable enough or would we eventually need to do one.
up to 13.9 its for 32bit, after 64bit optimized.
no idea which version support which windows version.
i think 13.9 is quite interessting to check out, and maybe latter the actual 14.2.
thanx for your advice!

Are PAF files usually restricted to portableapps.com?

partition app?

Submitted by UpdateInformer on February 25, 2025 - 1:24pm

hi professionals,
do you use a partition app or know one?
i tryied here search for this word, no app found.
the issue is to hopefully make system partition bigger.
i see seem to have quite few partitions.
perspectively need app, in middle time.
try to rescue first by cleaning.
maybe windows can clean or shrink also, as cleaner, setted middle dangerouse, no much help.
i was not sure which underforum best, let us talk short about possibly getting here an opensource app.

Newb question

Submitted by Grommet on February 19, 2025 - 3:06am

If I install PortableApps.com on my flash drive, do any files get left behind on the C:/ drive, or are all the files contained on the flash drive? I'm concerned because even though I'm downloading it to the flash drive, the downloading window suggests that it might still be placing some files on the C:/ drive.

Desktop Icon Shortcuts like Tab Table

Submitted by UpdateInformer on February 10, 2025 - 9:33pm

hi all,
i'm on my personal performance limit, so don't kick my ass if i oversaw something.
to get more productive i got idea of showing app shortcuts in a shortcut table like tabs overview.
say you got 60 apps, you get it shown by keybord shortcut or using a app, 6 lines a 10 app shortcuts.
i heared about apps like Rocketdock or Autohotkey.
as i don't want to die the japanese overworking dead so be nice.
no one can be nonstop working like a machine can do.
let us find a fitting app, best opensource.
million thanx!

Portable app(s) - older version download?

Submitted by soundguy on February 1, 2025 - 7:31am

Hi, i would rather download older version of portable app, that used to be available few weeks before. Specifically talking about Firefox Portable.
Is this possible to do somehow, get older versions list and download links? I ve checked and double checked website portableapps.com, but havent found such an option. It is related with Firefox new features and design, i dont like nor need both neither. Thank you.
