General Discussion

Hello all.

I'm new to Portable Apps and have just come across some nice themes that people have created.

How do I use them?

Sorry if this is blatantly obvious, but I can't figure it out.

Cheers.

    
I've developed a small tool to make portable application with delphi program language,now put it here with all source.
    
You can extract the TestPortable dir to your usb disk PortableApps dir (if you installed PortbleApps,you will find it easily),now restart your StartPortableApps.exe,you will find the new app in your PortableApps menu.
    

Is there a way to clear the tracker so that it no longer says there are new messages? I don't read every thread, so it would be nice to be able to clear the tracker to make it easier to find posts I haven't read.

Maybe clear the tracker when you log off, so that it only tells of the posts made since you were last logged into for the forum, or provide a button to clear the tracker, so you can easily see new posts when you refresh.

Thanks,

Don

I have half my USB drive as a normal FAT32 partition and the other half as a TrueCrypt partition. When I have the TC partition mounted and leave the computer on at night (for example) I almost always wake up to a blue screen. This seems to happen more frequently when I leave Portable Firefox running (it's on the TC partition), though it happens in other circumstances, too.

Any idea what's going on here?

Is it possible to create a partition in my USB Drive
1) without losing the data
or
2) without caring abt the data
Please advise

edit : i don't know where is that log file .. so if you need it please tell me where to get it ?

I am using a lot of freeware & open source tools. Most times I prefer the portable version because I can use them on my own comp, on the go and after crashing and reinstalling windows. Most of the smaller tools don`t have it`s own updater.

UpdateStar is quite good but it only works for installed and registered programs.

I also tested secunia psi beta, it searches the hole disk, but after two hours of scanning it doesn`t show many any non up to date versions and the beta is really kinda unstable.

Just thought I would let people know about this. I have (or had) PortableApps installed on my OCZ Rally2 4Gig USB drive for about two months, and then files started disappearing. I checked with the manufacturer of my drive and they suggested I reformat it and start from scratch. Well, I did, and since then no files have disappeared.

Hi

I am thinking about this PortableApps.com thing
I use it on a 4 Gb usb drive.
Now I have made all the apps translated into danish and I am wondering about one thing.

I saw this discussion: https://portableapps.com/node/4480
where a company will redistribute the portableapps.com along with some other software - but its missing one point.

Can I sell the package translated into danish and packed with the software the single user require ( from the whole suite to just a few apps)
off course the apps will be unmodified exept for translation.

Hello

When I first downloaded and installed the Lite version of PortableApps the launch menu would always pop up as soon as I inserted the USB into the computer. Subsequently I installed Roboform2go, and now Roborofm2go comes up as the first action, and the very useful PortableApps menu does not appear

How can I solve this?

thanks
