KeePassXC problems

Submitted by ASJ on January 19, 2021 - 6:11pm

FYI - I have twice tried to update KeePassXC via the PA Updater with no success. I finally resorted to a manual download and install through the PA website. This was successful. Just thought you might want to know.

New program to answer dialog/msgbox prompts...already portable

Submitted by msgbox on January 12, 2021 - 1:16pm

I am new to this site and not sure the lay of the land, so I will apologize now....
I have created a new program that will answer windows dialog and message box prompts
depending on the title in the box. The program is already portable and is a command line program
that runs as a background process....I initially created it for an annoying error message that came up every 30 seconds
on one of my old discontinued programs I use and have since found many other uses for it...eg: nag screens, "save as" prompts etc...

Controlling "desktop portable VLC" via my Android phone (as a remote)

Submitted by thank_you_for_p... on December 26, 2020 - 11:22pm

There are many apps for using one's Android phone as a remote control for desktop VLC.

However, from my research, they expect a regular install of VLC, not a portable install.

Have you figured out how to control "desktop portable VLC" via your phone?

(Worst case scenario, I'll go with using a "remote desktop" app to get my PC's screen on my phone [with a cursor], and use that).

Customized Version of OBS Studio?

Submitted by iua2 on December 23, 2020 - 3:36pm

New member here...question about using PortableApps.com

Plan on launching a new subscription web service soon that will use OBS Studio software loaded with customized content. Looking for an easy way to distribute that customized package. Is it possible to build the custom OBS package and add it to your menu of available software? This system will be of interest to people all over the world, especially North America, Europe, and Japan. After some time, there will also be updates to the package that would need to be distributed.
