Hello Great Mind ~

) Is it possible to exclude myself, my client, my device from your upload list; from your server logs?

GOAL: TO download stand-alone clients that are not traceable.

REASON: It's NO One's regard what I do or what you do, online as long as you don't break the "road (Also known as the internet framework)" Just do not break the internet framework". Everyone can drive on the road.

What information can you provide to enable software creators to create applications that "SELF-Contained"?

Thank You

Dual PortableApps (Win + Mac) in a USB stick

Submitted by zoso75 on September 16, 2016 - 11:01am

Hi everyone,
I checked this issue in the forum sections but I didn't fine anything (I beg the moderator to move or redirect this thread if t's already discussed); I would like to have on a USB both PortableApps for Win and Mac, in order to launch the related one from its operating system.
So , I would like to have on the USB stick a win folder (with the PA for Windows) and a mac folder (with the PA for MacOS), BUT with configuration files in common (not only the document or music folder).

Forums: old threads being resurrected

Submitted by Wm ... on September 8, 2016 - 2:50pm

Noticed this evening that the Active Topics said that I'd posted yesterday to a 2 post thread
"Want a simple-ish Notes App with usable functionality ..."

I was the last to post to the thread on 2014 May 23 and it hasn't see any activity since then.

I've noticed old threads popping up before but never really looked until it was (apparently) me.

Not a big deal but when a number of them happen at once it makes the Active Topics list messy.

LinuxPA (PortableApps.com style launcher for Linux)

Submitted by CalebQ42 on August 31, 2016 - 10:31am

I personally use linux mostly, and over the past year or so I've started to collect Linux apps that run off my flash drive, but there was a problem: How can I organize my apps? I finally decided to just make my own and make it use the PortableApps format. If you would like to try it out, or help me out, head over to the Github page or download the latest release.

Programs do not work autofill automatic KeePass

Submitted by vagner32 on August 26, 2016 - 2:05pm

Hello!

Use KeePass on a local installation and for some time now the programs on the platform that use passwords is not working autofill automatic KeePass.
Already did a restore installed programs again and still not working. An interesting detail is that if I remove say the “Firefox” of folder “PortableApps” and put in the same device, it works! Ah! Autofill automatic KeePass works with the same programs in local installation.

Thoughts on these USB drives?

I need to carry some sensitive data around with me, as well as being able to use portable apps. I cant predict what computer/OS I will be using the drive on so needs to be something that uses encryption/password protection and will work on any computer. Ive found the following:

64 Bit Applications support

Submitted by Drazick on August 15, 2016 - 6:39am

I would like to raise a point for discussion.
It started on a different thread but it belongs here.

The current policy (Or at least the way I understand it) of PortableApps is to support applications if and only if they have 32 Bit version.

Lately, as in any progress, there are some great applications which are, to begin with, 64 Bit only.
