Hi,

Is there a program that I can put onto a thumbdrive that will automatically load and act as a key logger for the apps running on my thumbdrive? for example it will record all key strokes in portable firefox?

Thanks

In their most recent topic, "Make Windows More Productive Without Installing A Thing", Lifehacker mentioned PortableApps in their list

As I mentioned to Ryan this morning I am afraid I wont really be around for the next three weeks or so as I have important exams (they are worth half of the qualifications that will take me to uni). I will aim to reply to posts about Toucan as soon as I can, I notice there are a couple I havent yet got round to, I will as soon as I can. Hope all goes well for the next few weeks, I expect to see a new menu release when I get back

Bye!

Greetings all,

1)adding menu item
when I add new app. the "Wizard" asks for directory, which was created under Portables.
Funny thing is that I need only one exe to be reflected as a new item it the menu.
When there are several executables in the program's folder - all of them appear as menu items ??? Not good, because sometimes launching one of executables can cause unpredictable result. Say, one or more components were not design to be manually started
2)removing menu items
I remove the directory in order to remove menu items created earlier.

my usb keeps been renamed portableapps 4 no apparent reason help!

Is there any way to make any of the files open with a specific program. Such as a video from the "Videos" folder open with MPlayer?

this is a collction of suggestions for the actual software (the menu that appears).
1. i think that the list of apps should be ordered bu when they were last used and not alphabetically. I have a long list of apps and find scrolling down cumbersome and unhelpfull. I feel that if the apps were ordered by which I used most recently (across all computers) I would find the software a lot more useful and easier to use.

Is there a portable version of the Halo trial I could download so that it would not save anything to my hard drive nor my registry?

Ryan,

As you probably know, there are new versions of RSSOwl, your portable version does not work on Vista so I'm looking how to update.

Then my question is, can I update it just replacing the App in the App folder? and/or Are you planing to release a new version?

Thanks in advance.

I am using a 250gig external to run Ubuntu 8.04, I set aside 10 gigs for my Ubuntu ext3 partition, 1 gig for the swap and the rest is ntfs for transferring between windows and Ubuntu. I use portable applications from here and I use a lot of the same application in windows and on Linux. I didn't want to use wine to run my applications since I have more stable version designed for Ubuntu. So i was wondering if the application roots (where they store their settings and data) could be changed to the same one?
