General Discussion

The portable apps launcher is including executables that I do not need or want on the list and excluding some I need. For example, I installed Opera USB and Portable apps put gsar.exe on the launcher list and not operausb.exe is there anything I can do to fix this?

Current version: 1.26

New stuff:
• Automatic updater
• Fixed some bugs with driver/service installation, though that's still a bit of a work in progress..
• Faster startup

What is Virtual PC?

Use Microsoft Virtual PC 2007 to run multiple operating systems at the same time on the same physical computer.

What is "Portable Virtual PC"?

Would it be possible to supply a "callback"/"listener" file for PortableApps to run after the USB (or w/e) is done loading? (Sorry, DHTML is my best illustration. =P)

I tend to keep versions of files in all the computers I'm working on so some version (even if it's outdated) is always available to me. I'd like to prompt the user (myself) for which action to take: copy the USB version to the desktop location; copy the desktop version to the USB location; or leave it alone - then take the specified action.

How do I make Portable Apps automatically start on a FLASH drive where I have a secure True Crypt volume? When True Crypt mounts the volume Portable Apps does not start.

There is an eject button

if you download it there is no eject button

there is an eject button in PAM MOD but not in the original

Right now they are listed alphabetically. I can't drag them to a different order. Is there a way to rearrange the order the apps are listed?

I read that the Portable Apps menu is licensed under GPL?

My understanding was that EVERYTHING that is in the same file as the GPL-ed code has to be GPL as well. This would also mean the graphics and icons have to be under the same license I'm afraid.

I noticed recently 2 new firefox versions were posted. Is it wise to spend the energy on apps that have auto update to also release the individual updates?

I admit to the dilemma people could think it's an outdated version.

Does anybody got any more geek.menu themes other than the snow, classic, and default? Hey, it' good to know you have a choice. Yes, I searched the topic before posting.
