General Discussion

Hi, there! I'm looking for someone who can walk me through the process of creating installers for PortableApps. My goal in this is to get to the point where I can operate independently, but I need someone that I can work with while learning the software to get there.
I already have a self-contained application to start with, and I've read some of the documentation in the Development area, so it won't be starting from scratch.
If anyone is willing to help me out, please let me know!

When I click on a link in an offline document it opens C:\Users\NAME\Documents\PortableApps\CyberfoxPortable\App\Cyberfox.exe, instead of C:\Users\NAME\Documents\PortableApps\CyberfoxPortable\CyberfoxPortable.exe. How do I correct this issue? Thanks for any suggestions.

Can you add an option to keep it open unless you minimize it yourself

I'm thinking about introducing platform-only apps for a couple categories and am looking for some thoughts. Please read the full post and then let me know any thoughts or suggestions you have.

I noticed something odd with Downthemall, then saw a comment over at AMO that the downthemall extension for Firefox is being discontinued? Is this true? If so, can someone recommend a replacement? I like the simplicity of the browser plugin, not really wanting to go to a download manager unless I absolutely have to. Mods, sorry if this is in the wrong thread, I don't know where it belongs.

I've installed Portable Apps on a new Windows 10 computer. I've tried to associate the .txt extension with NotePad++ Portable in every standard way imaginable, including editing the registry. However, Notepad is still the default. Does anyone have ideas on how to get this done?

I googled this site, and I have read various announcements and posts about cloud services. However, I can't find the following information.

1. Between Google Drive and Dropbox, which is the better cloud service for the Portableapps.com Platform?

Suggested Policy Change: Old threads should be marked as such with either [Outdated] or [Released], with links at the top to the new place to find download(s) of the project (whether that be a new thread, or an Official Release page).

I have installed portables.com platform onto my flash drive. I look forward to having many of my favorite apps - Firefox, Gimp, etc. - with me when I am away from my home computer. However, I have two questions regarding the platform.

1. There are portable apps that I am already using in my computer. These would include MusicBee, MediaMonkey, Foobar2000, Reno Uninstaller portables, etc.? Can and should I install these portable apps onto the platform?

Hello,

I mean the following.
I don't have desktop version of the PDF opener. So I want it use PortableApps version of PDF opener.
