General Discussion

I am trying to add Skype to my portable apps and cannot seem to find an easy way to have it kick-off with a simple click to a portable apps menu. Skype offers portability by using command line parameters: "Skype.exe /datapath:data /removable". But how to get the command line parameters included as part of the command!?

Some things I have tried and some of their problems are:
1)Create a batch file called .bat or .cmd - but then it isn't listed in the portable apps menu (besides which having a command window flash up looks ugly and unprofessional).

How do u change where your program saves its settings? I am running the updates for Magical Jelly Bean Keyfinder. Im trying to get the files to be saved in an ini file or an xml. if you have any questions, let me know

Hello to all PortableApps users.
PortableApps Suite is very good and useful but I can't change my USB Flash Drive's name. I's name is PortableApps.com but I want to change it.
When I try right click and click on "Change Name" button in the menu and write a new name, I doesn't change.

Is there a way to change the flash drive's name?
Why it's name is PortableApps.com? It's my flash drive, isn't portableapps.com's.

Thanks for all replies and solutions.

I heard some company will buy clamwin av. So if it does came true then it will not be open source?

is it possible to pull off portable apps in a site?

Which do you prefer?I need help in choosing.

im
miranda and pidgin portable

what plugins do you recommend

7zip and peazip(i can't seem to know how to make a new zip in 7zip)

(hope you make a portable firefox 3 the firefox 3 that will be release as early as possible)thanks.

(You'll have to forgive me if anything I say sounds odd, I don't really know very much about computers, let alone programming.)

This is a basic Windows XP problem, but I don't know the answer, I'm afraid!

Having copied loads of portable apps into a folder on my USB stick, I created shortcuts to each one outside of the folder, and made the folder invisible. No probs - they all work fine...

...until I take my memstick to another computer, where Windows sees it as a drive with a different letter. The shortcuts point to the apps with an absolute reference, rather than a relative one.

How can I overcome this, please?

Well, I was working on a little "Project" of mine but it was ruined when my cousin decided to use my computer and just so happened to get a virus that wiped out my machine. He decided that my security software was making the computer run too slow so he closed all of it. Yea...
