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.

Hi All,
I have installed Google Chrome portable on a BitLocker drive protected by password to avoid users not authorized (i have a domain PC) to access my Google session with all saved password.
Even if the App is installed as portable, seems that all users data and customizations are saved in local AppData folder in Windows.
So if a user access to my Windows session and install a standard version of Google Chrome, it automatically has all my saved data.

It's possible to completely isolate Chrome in the portable folder?

Thanks

Could you please add a separate icon for Incognito mode of Chrome or add an option (right-click) to directly start Chrome in Incognito mode instead of having to run Chrome and then open an Incognito tab?

I've noticed that I can't connect more than three devices ty my Dropbox account. Are there some limitations?

I've heard that Microsoft Edge is shifting to Chromium based browser, just like Google Chrome... You could do an online installer once it is officially released. It would be a nice addition to Portableapps.com.

I have been loving using the font feature in portable apps. Is there a similar method that I can use to store my photoshop brushes?

Hello,

I am looking for an option so our Windows FireFox Group Policy in Windows Active Directory does NOT affect/influence our Portable App (the latest version) in Windows 8.1
At this time it realy does...

Does this exists? I am NOT looking for on option on the properties off the GPO in Windows Active Directory. I already discussed this with our GPO experts ( in Enterprise of 30000 workstaions)

With kind regards, Ben

I ran some test and determined that these folders get left after the program closes. I am a windows 7 user and would like to have this code implemented.
