Is there a way to convert a u3p application back to a regular 'hard-disk '
application?

Or just run a u3p app without a u3 pen drive?

Thanks

Hello everybody!!
I'm just wondering if you think this suggestion is a good idea.
I would like to have a right click menu on the apps in the portable apps menu. It should have the options of delete program and remove from list. That would be really nice because, for example, spybot has lots of programs apart from the main console. I would like to be able to remove the ones I dont use from the list but leave the main console shortcut still there. Do you understand what I mean?

Thanks!

Hi All...

I was just in the process of new install for the PA suite, had finished the Clamwin defs update and had just opened Sunbird when it informed me that the 0.9 Sunbird update was available... did I want to download and install?

It isn't clear to me what the flashdrive apps look like to the 'outside net'.
For example, should I let Sunbird use its own updater, or wait & download a portable .9 from here?
What if there is a same version Sunbird also installed on the host computer? Any chance of mucking it up?

Just wondering if there are any portable Programing languages out there? I know there are windows versions of just about all open source languages. How hard would it be to make them portable? Would love to get my hands on a portable version of mono or ruby.

Hi,

I've been using portable apps at work quite a bit and I opened a few documents in notepad++ so anyway turns out that documents you open (documents on your usb key) with notepad++ apear in Windows' recently used documents list.

The question is, is that normal ( or desirable) behaviour? I was under the impression that portable apps didn't leave stuff on the host computer. Or is that just installation files and configuration settings?

Can I run portable apps on a Mac or is it pc only.

Can I download apps that were designed for the portable apps client and run them through my sandisk u3 smart

drive client or will I need to download portable apps.

I looked in the forums and all I kept getting was the background swapper.
Is there any way to switch the theme for the desktop like you switch the background?
I like the royale noir theme, but I don't want to go through the the trouble of switching it on every computer I use, obviously.
If this is possible lease tell me how.

Can a usb version be used on the harddrive.
Not a portable hard drive but the main hard drive.
Running portable firefox 3.04 with no problems.
Thanks in advance for your help.
