Windows 10

I just found this

Is there any utility to do this?

click the close "x" button on an app ---> send app to system tray

Can AutoHotKey maybe do this?

I want to do this with VLC.

For some reason I have a terrible habit of clicking on the close "x" button with the intention of sending it to the system tray.

Let me know, thanks.

Hi, I’ve encountered a persistent issue with the PortableApps version of Textify Portable and was wondering if anyone has a solution.

Every time I start my PC and launch Textify Portable (PortableApps is starting automatically with Windows and Textify is configured to start up in PortableApps), I get the following error message:
"Textify Portable did not close properly last time it was run and will now clean up. Please then start Textify Portable again manually."

I normally run chrome's .paf executable and overwrite my previous installation to update my Chrome portables and this would normally retain the profile but with the latest update (137.0.7151.104 (Official Build) (32-bit)), it somehow resets the profile and I get a blank profile upon launch.

how do I retain my profile or at least restore it?

also it seems to be checking for updates. how do I disable updates?

At my work (Windows computers), we are only supposed to install software through the company IT department.

They didn't have Firefox available, so I copied a portable version of Firefox onto my work computer. In theory, I could have ran it off the USB stick, but that was very slow, I just copied it to a separate folder on the computer.

A few months later, the IT person tells me that he knows that I am running Firefox, that I am not supposed to have it, and that I should delete it.

.net 8 + win10
need test after release. keep in mind

thx

Hi, I want to start Textify automatically with PortableApps (ie. not with Windows). So I have done this: PortableApps WINDOW | RIGHT-CLICK | 'Start Automatically'
The problem is that starting Textify without the "-hidewnd" argument displays its windows when PortableApps is starting, so I need to add "-hidewnd". How can I add this? Which PortableApps startup file should I edit for this?

The Irfanview website suggests using the 32-bit version. Do I have to operate it from here?

Can the i_view32.ini settings from the install version be used? If so, where do I put them?

Right now, the portable version toolbar displays differently than the install, is there an adjustment for this?

i hope for a tip, as need very bad to find a solution on that to finally get life (again) managed, thx!
found nice app, unclear how to use.
does app like Kanban Board App save settings on sys or in app directory?
its kinda local app, is save to use allthough 5years no update?
seem great app, but no manual on github.
i think it will be like open html file with browser, right?
may be a bit bad to set in code but however.
EDIT
i search a offline calendar-kanban app to get finally (all) orginized...
found a list to work through...
