Hi,

I've a need to support some older firmware out on some industrial PCs. Some of these don't work so well with all versions of Java and we end up having to have seperate PCs each with its own version installed. Sometimes though these get updated by mistake and its a bit of a mess, so I wanted to see if portableapps could help. I suspect this is something thats already been achieved here but I can't find anything in a search of the forums.

Hi, I'm getting "The downloaded copy of Google Chrome (Stable) is not valid and cannot be installed." for Chrome 41 and 42. Same with mirror sites.

I've pulled back on what FF can do over the last year or so and noticed others doing so to, sometimes baffled as I have been about why a version change suddenly meant a cliff edge fall in performance when the user hadn't done anything they were aware of.

I loved groups, guess what, JTH said they might be affecting performance so I got rid of them, altogether.

I renamed my folder and started again.

Guess what?

FF was slow within a day.

I also tried FF normal, same thing.

Sort yourself out, JTH.

I have been found unpleasant because I have used words that foolish people consider swearwords, I have mentioned body parts of men and women, I consider them ordinary, wikipedia knows about them, only very narrow minded people consider them rude.

What I have *not* done is present adverts to people that are illegal to posses.

JTH, and everyone, do you have any idea where the difference rates in legal terms?

If I show you an illegal image I expect to be punished, possibly to go to jail.

Who can change my account name?
Thanks

Is it possible to change the location of the main pictures, music and videos folders. I would like them in the root folder beside the documents folder because when i'm creating subfolders in the documents folder they are scattered throughout the directory.

i'm after a portable app to catalog some tv series,but i want to customize it so i can add custom fields like the offiial website and when its back on air etc,ive seen a few tv databases but they only allow 2 custom fields and i'm after a lot more,thanx in advance

Hidy ho all,

I wanted to know if there was a way to encrypt the portable apps folders. And only allow a user to access programs and files via the portable apps launcher. And finally, if you could have it so when you launched portable apps, it wouldn't work without a password entry.

Just a little extra security, should you lose your flash drive.

I just had an idea. How about a Telegram group for our PA.c Devs? Tell me what you think

Hello,

I have some access issues to some of SourceForge mirrors.
It turned out that the default one is blocked on my network.

My question / suggestion is, can one make the PoartableApps manager to download using specific mirrors?
As things now I can't update (At least not automatically) my programs.

Thank You.
