General Discussion

Is it me? Or are the forums slow lately?
I posted 3 updates to my menu and haven't seen an response.

Hey, i really dont know who does the site so I am assuming it is John
Could we have the newer posts show up first so we don't have to scroll do the bottom to see them?
thanks

If in a computer where command is restricted, (Start->Run->cmd is blocked) will this still work?

Anyone know of a simple Explorer replacement? When I say simple, I mean a Open dialog style one. For browsing files, I currently open Notepad++ and click File » Open to do it.

I'm planning to make a portable version of it, because it would so totally be better than using normal Explorer. If one doesn't exist, I might make one myself.

Okay, I realize that both teamspeak and ventrilo are closed sourced and their license forbids their modifications... but is there anything LIKE them that can or already has been made portable?

I was not sure whether to post this in off topic or or in General discussion feel free to move it though. but I thought since it is about portable apps...
Since I created a version of insanaquarium portable and I am planning to do several other non open source apps (and some open source apps) I was wondering if I could just host the launcher of the app and the source of the launcher and just give a link to download the actual app on sourceforge?
Thanks for any info,

Is this possible? I want to use a San Disk drive with hardware encryption and PStart. The idea is to have PStart in the unsecured section and upon starting PStart, have PStart “initiate” the login to the secured section. Also, any negatives in running either Thunderbird Portable or Firefox Portable in the secured section?
Thanks

Hi developers!

I would like to know if it's allowed to create a collection of my favorite PortableApps from PortableApps.com. I would include them in a zip-archive with a small HTML-documentation and provide them on my homepage.
I think this isn't legal, is it?

thanks stgr

what do the icons beside the topic mean?

It would be great if someone could make a "practice app", that is an app that has already been made portable. It could include a text file with what registry entries it adds and how to make it portable with step by stp directions. It would really help those not-so-sure coders get started!
