General Discussion

My version of the PortableApps menu has a load of "portable" applications, for example I have "Abiword Portable", "Clamwin Portable", "Firefox Portable", "GAIM Portable", "GNUcash Portable", "Inkscape Portable", "KompoZer Portable", "On-screen Keyboard Portable", "OpenOffice.org Calc Portable", "OpenOffice.org Writer Portable", "Scibus Portable", "Sudoko Portable", "Sunbird Portable", "Thunderbird Portable". That's an awful lot of "Portable"s. I'd like to remove that word.

I have a request: How about an option to launch an app after installing it?

How come whenever I run a program off my flashdrive with portable apps like firefox it saves it to the registry? How is it considered possible if it saves to registry?

but i sereously think we need a MANDITORY no-go apps list because no one seems to be reading the request apps requirements. we would have things like Microsoft Windows and Office as well as other apps like closed source apps.

Hi,

I have a Portable Applicaton. Thing is, it is not an open source project. What are the requirements to distribute my potable application on this site? I am new to this group

Thanks,

Ive been using portableapps for a while and I love this program. But, there is a great freeware portable app that gives you full system specs that no one has metioned before. It's called SysSpecs. It is located here: http://www.alexnolan.net/software/sysspec.htm

How come the site's displaying so weird? Everything for me is white with blue linkys. (Yes Patrick I spelled site right :P)

Is it possible to create standard PortableApps.com Installer, but without files stored in "Source" folder?

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
