General Discussion

I was thinking and it would be pretty cool if I were to setup game streaming from my Linux desktop to wherever I might be. For example, maybe I might be at a friends house and we decide to play some video games, so I could just plug in my portableapps USB with some game streaming software and start playing some games, for example.

You should remove the "g+" icon in the top right corner. It just simply redirects to Google+ is no longer available for consumers.

Is there any updates for Google Chrome 73.0.3683.86?..

Hello!
I recently discovered this forum and its great community

I have found PortableApps program enormously useful for a kind of user like me but here are a few of my notices (and suggestions) for the developers of this great website.

1. Some programs in PortableApps are 32-bit only while there are 64-bit versions available, such as:
> GIMP
> FileZilla
> Notepad++
> MirandaNG
> CrystalDiskInfo
> IrfanView

Please update the following apps:
FastCopy 3.63
Foxit Reader 9.4.1.16828
IrfanView 4.52
qBittorrent 4.1.5
TeamViewer 14.2.2558
VLC media player 3.0.6
YUMI 2.0.6.4

How to add forwarder in gmail can anybody knows. i want to add in my gmail.

So dev mode is already enabled in the extensions page and when I click on "Atualizar" ("Update" in English), all I get is a message in the bottom left corner of the screen with the text "Atualizando..." ("Updating...") that never goes away (unless I close the tab and open it again). But the outdated extensions don't get updated by this way. I know because today there was released a new version of "The Great Suspender" extension and on my Chrome it still didn't get the update although I'm trying to manually update.

I have Google chrome set up perfectly, it's very complex with settings and a whole bunch of extensions...

I don't want updates to screw things up for browser settings AND extensions that may stop working or get buggy with updates in the future.

So I want kind of a Google Chrome Portable in a cocoon, impervious to future changes !

Is this possible? What settings on Gchrome to disable ALL updates, make it impossible to change.

And for extensions, if they are simply browser based, will fetching then in a folder in original form with CRX extensions work?

Dear all,
Could you help me set up these following use cases please?

1. On a multi-user environment, if I install PortableApps (PA) for all users, does PA create different user profile/setting for each user?
In particular for Chrome, should I install regular Chrome or in PA, so that each user shall have a distinct profile?

Basically, to make the steam version of Caves of Qud portable, all you need to do is knock out the steamapi.dll and use the commandline parameter -savesomethingorother with a location. / will start at the root of the current drive. The trouble is, I'd like to register the bat file, or possibly even cmd, with the start menu so that I can launch it directly from portable apps menu. Please help.
