Has anyone noticed now that with the latest rolled out update to Windows 10 that file associations can no longer be changed to enable Portable apps (not just from PortableApps.com) to open images, video, audio, documents and any other file types as the default application. This used to be a piece of cake and the settings used to stick. Anyone else finding this a real issue of concern with using portable applications now?

I use a portable version of chrome 64 but periodically a small part of a popup appears in the upper left corner with an info as chrome can not update...

How can I TOTALY disable crome update ?!

According to Windows Defender , PortableApps is virus.
・Detected virus name is Aenjaris.BC!.bit

Why it detected as a virus?And what I should do for this?

I need your comment.

Hi

The update of Dsynchronize failed on PortableApps.com. Error 404
I have contacted the developpor of DSynchronize, his installation file on his website is ok.

Best regards

I want opening new incognito window of Chrome or new private window of Firefox in Context menu via PortableApps.com Platform, but this is unavailable.

Background:

A year ago, I switched to Android (from iPhone). I have very high productivity needs, and don't do social media. I installed all the apps I needed, and then switched off all updates.

The result? Life changing.

Pros: My phone behaves predictably. The UI never changes. My friends and colleagues keep complaining about how after updating this or that app the buttons changed, or free features became "paid-only", or the phone slowed down, or the app keeps crashing. Not for me. Everything works exactly as it used to a year ago.

I am wanting to download audio books from Overdrive.com and audible.com.. I have to install the programs to download them, but I am using a public computer which will not allow programs to be installed. Any suggestions, or for that matter, anything that would allow download from audible.com

I always have/use a non-portable Google Chrome instance. And several portable Google Chromes. But when they update at start up by the Portable Apps Updater, it says that my Portable Google Chrome instance is open. But it is not. The one open is my non-portable instance of Google Chrome. Only after I close my non-portable instance of Google Chrome, the updater continues.

Greetings all,

I'm looking at beginning to use my phone as my EDC storage device with all of my portable apps.

However, I've found that some portable apps don't seem to work from the phone. I've also found that I can't use the PortableApps installer to install portable apps on the sd card or storage of my phone.

I think this is because when I connect my Galaxy S8+ to the computer through USB it doesn't get assigned a drive letter. It pops up with an MP3 player icon (MTP I think)

Does anyone know anything about this?

Hi, I've been using an installation of PortableApps, which is located on an External USB3 Hard Drive. This installation is a 'working installation', which I use to download and evaluate individual apps, with the intention of eventually placing a select subset of apps on a USB Flash Drive.

I also use this External USB3 Drive installation to run apps which I may use only occasionally, and thus prevent unnecessarily clogging up my Windows registry with local application installations.
