General Discussion

Like others here, I experience periodic problems with file system errors on my USB drive. Is there a portable app that works better than chkdsk or the Windows Explorer Properties...Tools... Error Checking option?

Yes, I've searched the forum already...

...on my Cruzer Titanium 2GB and replace it with the PortableApps Suite but there's a few things that I want to have first.

1. I like the autorun feature that comes on the drive. I would like to set it up so that it runs the Portable Apps suite. I think I've seen that happen but I don't want to wreck my $60 drive in the process of hacking it, and if I replace U3 with Portable Apps, I want all that U3 crap off of there while still keeping the autorun.

My laptop hard drive crashed here at work but thanks to the portable apps I have been using on my flash drives I was able to move to a new computer without skipping a beat. Thanks so much for all your work with these programs!!!

On the subject of application efficiency, I was wondering whether it is easier for PC's to run PortableApps or their non portable counterparts?

If yes, then would it be a good idea to setup a system of just portableapps?

I think there would be some integration problems, but would those be the only problems?

I tried the portable skype that is posted somewhere in this forum (I can't find it again and that's why I'm starting a new annoying post about portable skype... ).. it have something strange... when you clink on PAM: "Profile was not found. Please check your configuration"... then if you open the PortableApps folder, go to the Portable Skype folder and double click in the launcher... it works!!!

What's happening?

I know we can run mIRC from any portable device just copying the mIRC folder into the device, and the new version of mIRC can be run with the option -portable so it will not use the Windows registry, but...

My question is, How can I run "mIRC.exe -portable" from PortableAppsMenu in just one click? or How can I create a shortcut with the option -portable to run it from PAM?

Thanks in advance.-

This has been something that has annoyed me with Portable Apps Suite for a little while now. It has to do specifically with the way the main Portable Apps Suite window works.

While Portable Aps creates a Documents folder, some installations like the Portable Skye installation looks for (and creates on installation) a My Documents folder. Do I need to keep the My Documents? will other software look for this by default? It seems like Portable Aps is hard wired to use the Documents folder when you use the control menu.

How do I , I need 2 know, you know one that allows me to put Firefox Portable in a modified package, since I am making my own portable applications suite.

I was wondering, some people have made up various guides and instuctions for the PortableApps Menu, as well, there is information on the site.
