Source, Target installation

Submitted by slouw on January 6, 2020 - 3:22pm

Very interesting looking software
I cannot find where it should be installed however.
May I introduce a few terms so I can better understand the architecture.
Source computer = My computer where I have all my apps installed/licenced etc.
Target computer = Where I want to run an portable app.
Cloud location = E.g. Onedrive etc.
Where should I install PortableApps.com?
On the target computer? But I cannot do that - not available to me.

UTorrent 3.3.0

Submitted by Tina1 on December 30, 2019 - 12:34pm

Dear support team , I've got some questions in a filesharing case and hope you can help. My family was accused of downloading and uploading a Russian game Dead Island Riptide from a Russian exchange platform called rutor.org in 2013. We didn't download this game and never used Utorrent before 2018, nor do we speak Russian. But we had a russian visitor in our house and he used a usb-stick. My question is whether uTorrent client 3.3.0 can be operated on a usb stick?

[Fixed] PotPlayer creates Log folder in AppData...

Submitted by Haris6AN on December 22, 2019 - 2:45pm

Log folder is created in AppData folder. It seems that PotPlayerLauncher is missing some code in it, for example this is how it is supposed to be:
[DirectoriesCleanupIfEmpty]
1=%APPDATA%\Daum\PotPlayer\Log
2=%APPDATA%\Daum\PotPlayer
3=%APPDATA%\Daum

...and this is how it is in the new, updeted version:
[DirectoriesCleanupIfEmpty]
1=%APPDATA\Daum\PotPlayer\Log
2=%APPDATA\Daum\PotPlayer
3=%APPDATA\Daum

Several Apps don't start anymore

Submitted by herby on December 14, 2019 - 6:32am

I recently found that several apps don't start anymore, for example
- Avidemux 2.7.4-5 (nothing happens, not even the splash screen appears)
- Audacity 2.3.3 (splash screen appears, after that nothing happens)

I'm not sure if it's a common bug or individual bugs of the apps.
Running with Admin-Rights doesn't work either.
No hints in PortableAppsPlatform.log or in Windows event log.
No running tasks in task manager.
