Portable Firefox Crashing Often

Submitted by dwtg7 on April 29, 2020 - 10:04pm

Portable Firefox crashes often...will not remain stable for more than a few hours of being open (many times less) such that I need to close and restart it...freezes up often and does NOT offer to send a crash report.
I maintain the latest version 75.0 (64-Bit) and have Windows 10 as my PC OS.

This problem occurs across a variety of web sites so it is non-specific to any one, nor is there a pattern to its crash behavior. Even something as simple as clicking on a link can freeze it up requiring a restart.

Any assistance to resolve this is greatly appreciate.

IP Messenger HSTools Portable

Hello PortableApps Community,

I am posting here as I believe this post could also be in the new portable Internet app category but probably not in Internet app support though.

I have been using IP Messenger from SHIROUZU Hiroaki (https://ipmsg.org/en/) and find it to be very useful for my workflow.
With that I decided to create a portable app out of it.

Before I go into details, below is the download link,

I was looking for SmithTech's AppLauncher and found someday changed to Portable Startup Utility and that is already old, ancient and outdated... OMG this world had changed a lot!!!
Is there an updated alternative software?
Thanks in advance

Happy user with Portable Apps on a USB 3.0 + Bitlocker on Win10

Submitted by bloxster2 on April 16, 2020 - 5:42am

Hi community,
my IT department mandated to remove all non sponsored application / software from my work PC. So, as a real newbie as I am, I started to investigate how I could continue to use my favourite browser and apps.

After a search on search engine I found PortableApps website and easily installed the softwares I need. Unfortunately I did on an old USB and I quickly found that it was performing poorly. So I got myself a USB 3.0 mini dongle and re-installed everything, improving a lot the performance.

login app manager for those who have more than one pc

Submitted by andreakid on April 3, 2020 - 11:33am

Hi, I registered today but I have been using the site for some time with satisfaction.
I hope to be in the right section ... I would like to have a login option as an option in the app manager (portable apps platform) to synchronize the various PCs I use. So I would have the opportunity to always have my favorite applications installed without going to look for what new installations from scratch or even just to have the same apps in the office on the work PC and at home on the personal PC.
Thanks
Andrea

Your browser does not support WebGL

On the site mars.algoritmika.org constantly writes "Your browser does not support WebGL". The latest version of Google Chrome Portable 64 v80.0.3987.149 is now installed. Win 10 x64. Notebook ASUS M50S. The NVIDIA GeForce 9500M GS video card driver is the latest available. This has never happened before.
