General Discussion

This morning I 'OK'ed the update of CCleaner via PortableApps.
It appeared temporarily on the screen and duly disappeared.

I believe the version in question is 5.85.9170

Anyone else?

(I'm using it on Win10.)

Hi,

I have a NAS running linux and i normally use RaiDrive in order to map its scp to a new Disk Drive in Windows. Everything works fine, i can use any app, even when this apps, needs to write something in the mapped drive. The problem is when i try to update apps, seems something say that there is no enough space to update.

Any workarround? any fix?

Regards,

Dave

I have tons of portable apps and just finished reinstalling WIndows 10. I backed up my PortableApps folder and now my question is....how do I 'reinstall' it back on my new WIndows installation?
I mean, how to recreate all the file associations, right-click menus, etc...that existed previously?
Is there a simple one-click (or almost) way of doing this?
Thanks,

Is there any way to add a link to an app that is already portable (but not in the paf.exe format) in the Launcher?

These days most people have 64-bit computers*. So, will it be too difficult for the developers to include a "Install 64-bit version only" option in the installers of dual-architecture portable apps like Firefox Portable?

*Please refer to these stats: https://www.pcbenchmarks.net/os-marketshare.html

I noticed that every PortableApps applications seems to have at least 1 '.nsh' file in its folder.

I'm just curious:

1. What does "nsh" stand for?
2. What generates these files?
3. What is their purpose?

Thanks.

I created a Portable apps USB 3 Stick in 2017-2019 - not sure exactly
And today upgraded to:
* Version 18.0.1 [2021-06-15]

And now I am updating the apps that needed update...?

Are you suggest update the apps or format USB stick and recreate it...?

I want to run Portable apps USB 3 Stick on all platforms and Windows 11...!

Hi, please can I check about the following two points:

a) confirm that the 'X' button, which I read is the close button, is present so that the PorableApps can be closed, without needing to eject a USB stick. Just this seems to be a duplication of the option offered by a right click of the power button - and so am wondering if there is some additional other function/use to the X button.

Hi, I only just discovered your very interesting portable app manager!
However I'm not following how all app related (temporary working) files and/or app config data, can be fully cleaned up (and guaranteed as such), and thus a system kept secure and clean.

Hello PortableApps.com Team, I know that some of PortableApps.com's app launchers are not generated with PortableApps.com Launcher Generator, but rewritten with NSIS language (NSI source file).
