I have this weird problem with the portable apps launcher. On my windows 7 laptop the launcher appears as in all white and the only things that are visiable is the apps themselves, has anyone else seen this or know what is going on? I tried to reinstall it but it made no difference.

Hello, I am currently using Iron portable, but there are some issues with it, so I want to switch over to chrome portable...
However, because Iron portable does not have the option to sync my data, if I switch over to chrome portable, I will lose all of my current data....
Is there any way for me to switch from iron to chrome and still have all my data?
(by data I mean bookmarks, settings, cookies, cache, passwords, extensions, etc.)

I am trying to figure out how to make a java application show up on the launcher. Im going through the example part of the instructions. The instructions talk about a path App\AppInfo\Launcher\JestPortable.ini but I dont see a Launcher directory in: PortableApps\PortableApps.com\App\AppInfo am I in the right directory?

I have been an avid user of single portable apps for about a year or two now. One of the things that is really important to me was being able to run my computer repair business without having to install apps on customers' computers. Latley I have been getting more and more involved in making sure I can run all the apps I need to troubleshoot problems in a more stream lined fashion. Whats funny is I was going though installing individual apps one at at time on my USB stick thinking, I wish portable apps had some kind of laucher that would make this simple.

I want to remove all of the programs I do not use, respectively I haven't been used / accessed since one year or so. What is the easiest / most effective way to do that? Could I just remove these programs with e. g. a file manager from my drive and may be after let PortApps scan the folder \PortableApps\PortableApps for the programs still available on that drive and actualize its catalog that way? So just remove all of the programs (or just archive them in e.g. a zip file?) to be shown last accessed in 2014?

I'm using the platform 12.2, and I downloaded Iron portable, and then when I tried to sign in with my google account, nothing happened......
It would put in my username and pass, and then click login, and then it would load for a few seconds and then nothing would happen.....
Is it just me, or does this happen to everyone?
And if it happening to everyone, would someone please look into this and fix it?

I've noticed that 1-4 months ago, during software updates a lot of installation windows have become to appear. Most of them consist of "Next, Agree, Install and Close". It is very annoying... What has happened? Maybe it would be better to show all licences in one window and click agree only once? Licences even do appear for opensource software like firefox

I'm not sure if this is the best place to post but here goes.

Does anyone know of a video downloader which works with Opera Portable?

Installed Firefox has an add-on video downloader.

Is there an add-on or other application which helps with video downloading using Opera Portable?

Thank you!
