General Discussion

Dear Portable Apps Team,

I am Claudia from Vienna, Austria, having just joined your forum - finally
Now I would like to express my gratefulness to all of you for your great Portable Apps I had been using for very long time.

Actually, I was not sure what to choose in your sign-up form when asked for the main device I have stored your Apps, since I have been happily making use of all of them, such as on

- Desktop PCs, notebooks and my new Tablet: hard-disk or second partition;
- EeePCs: Memory Card
- in addition to USB sticks and USB drives, etc.

Hey guys! Are there any portable data recovery apps I can download from here? Thanks in advance

Anyone know of a visual text encryption tool like ClipSecure. By visual I mean that the encrypted text is not stored in a file but presented in a GUI that the user can then copy and paste into another application, say an email client for example. Basically, I need to stored text in encrypted form but not in a file, just as (printable) text.

Hi, i just want to report that there's a serious bug in Opera 11 portable edition, and i assume that it's the same bug from previous versions - Opera is erasing profiles on startup AGAIN, and this is totally unacceptable behavior.

This is the third time since the Opera 11 release arrived that i've got overwritten/erased profile. And btw, i've spent days to tune and customize each of those profiles to work the way they should.

Now i'm back on Opera@USB 10.63, and maybe it's not as portable as OperaPortable edition (read it somewhere), but at least it works.

- that's why i'm hoping you'll forgive me this kind of personal message: many many thanks for all the work you've been doing last year, and a very happy new one to all of you

- i dont know how to do it myself or i would do it, but would someone please make a Windows Live Messenger Portable?

Greetings,

Use the portable apps since 2009. and really I'm a happy user! It becomes mine habit means I always try to find the portable version for any software. So the software increase as time goes on. I have to think how to manage so many applications in a single portableapps effectively.

Maybe it's a good idea to add new ability that can set the categories and drop the each software to its own category. So that the software can be located with ease!

Is anyone agree with me? Or other ideas?

Thanks!
ED

the only thing I found here was this thread https://portableapps.com/node/4718 but did not answer it. No luck with Google either. If PAF s work, then u should change all ur pages' title ''X | PortableApps.com - Portable software for USB drives'' to reflect that, just saying.

PS are old threads auto locked after certain time? Cuz in gave thread, I couldn't reply/post to it

Little FYI.. I started a SVNPortable project on sourceforge today. Thought it be nice if one could just download a file, unpack it and start using it without jumping through allot of hoops. I've been fiddling around with SVN on Win32 lately and have gotten ..some.. results. This fiddling has turned into a hobby project. I say hobby because I use SVN mainly for DEV without messing around with it. I'm not a expert at SVN and learning as I go like allot of people, however I'm writing steps as scripts & batch files to make SVN easier in this distribution.

I guess this post is mainly for Simeon but I just wanted to ask if you had ever looked at making the server component portable? I can't remember what the last decision was about it, but I think you were just going to leave it, since we had sort of concluded it wasn't necessary. However, I've since realized that one key reason to make the server component portable is that you need it for LAN games.
