General Discussion

Thanks everyone for the continued work on the PortableApps platform and apps. I use them almost every day and they are quite the life saver! I really appreciate the work on this project! It is especially great for using Windows on my MacBook, I have little room to spare on my Windows partition and the ability to run hundreds of great programs off of USB/external HDDs, and such is great!

Thanks again!

Given how handy Portable apps is and the fun you can have it would be nice if you could setup a drive with a given set of apps and then export a list so that you can send somebody the list file so they can get an updated copy without having to deal with downloading a frozen copy first.

This would help a lot with the Portable MakeHuman thing since Blender Gimp and some support tools need to be downloaded also for things to work.

triggering the install could be as easy as having the export file in a clean folder with the PAS installer

Hi!
I'm trying to make a portable version of SmartMorph (http://meesoft.logicnet.dk/) and I'm running into a strange problem.
When I run the launcher file it doesn't save the registry entries to a file like it should.
I made the Launcher.ini file with the following entries

[Launch]
ProgramExecutable=\SmartMorph\SmartMop.exe
DirectoryMoveOK=None

[Activate]
Registry=true

May I ask? Are there options to be entirely sandboxed and encrypted on any device that connects to another device? Best.

Hi all,

Did my research before posting here... couldn't see a similar request so I thought I would ask the question.

I have a bunch of users accessing the ChromePortable via a UNC path. This is because the apps they are accessing dont play nicely with IE (nothing new there!)

We have hit a snag where a pop up (genuine) appears in a webpage, and for the life of me, I cannot work out how to whitelist it...

I've tried the following:

There's a lot of boilerplate files and folders in the PA's package, lots of complications to create a package. Maybe PortableApps.com should make a portable app themselves that takes the app folder (containing only the app files) and one config file (just one) and from that produces all the files and folders that its system needs. Rather than everyone downloading templates, copying files all around the directory tree and editing select parts of the config files.

Hello Great Mind ~

) Is it possible to exclude myself, my client, my device from your upload list; from your server logs?

GOAL: TO download stand-alone clients that are not traceable.

REASON: It's NO One's regard what I do or what you do, online as long as you don't break the "road (Also known as the internet framework)" Just do not break the internet framework". Everyone can drive on the road.

What information can you provide to enable software creators to create applications that "SELF-Contained"?

Thank You

Hi everyone,
I checked this issue in the forum sections but I didn't fine anything (I beg the moderator to move or redirect this thread if t's already discussed); I would like to have on a USB both PortableApps for Win and Mac, in order to launch the related one from its operating system.
So , I would like to have on the USB stick a win folder (with the PA for Windows) and a mac folder (with the PA for MacOS), BUT with configuration files in common (not only the document or music folder).

I downloaded a lot of apps before installing the Portable Apps Platform and I am wondering if it is important to make all apps go through the platform.

I registrated here for one time statement. Today I wanted to start an update for Google Chrome portable from portable apps plattform.
IT FAILED!

The I looked for downloading Google Chrome portable manualy. I lerned that there is an online installer ONLY.
I gave it a try. IT FAILED!

I kept looking for a full offline instraller - NOPE!!! -> your decision -> my reason to deploy paps into garbage!
