How come whenever I run a program off my flashdrive with portable apps like firefox it saves it to the registry? How is it considered possible if it saves to registry?

but i sereously think we need a MANDITORY no-go apps list because no one seems to be reading the request apps requirements. we would have things like Microsoft Windows and Office as well as other apps like closed source apps.

Hi,

I have a Portable Applicaton. Thing is, it is not an open source project. What are the requirements to distribute my potable application on this site? I am new to this group

Thanks,

Ive been using portableapps for a while and I love this program. But, there is a great freeware portable app that gives you full system specs that no one has metioned before. It's called SysSpecs. It is located here: http://www.alexnolan.net/software/sysspec.htm

How come the site's displaying so weird? Everything for me is white with blue linkys. (Yes Patrick I spelled site right :P)

Is it possible to create standard PortableApps.com Installer, but without files stored in "Source" folder?

Hi,

Is there a program that I can put onto a thumbdrive that will automatically load and act as a key logger for the apps running on my thumbdrive? for example it will record all key strokes in portable firefox?

Thanks

In their most recent topic, "Make Windows More Productive Without Installing A Thing", Lifehacker mentioned PortableApps in their list

As I mentioned to Ryan this morning I am afraid I wont really be around for the next three weeks or so as I have important exams (they are worth half of the qualifications that will take me to uni). I will aim to reply to posts about Toucan as soon as I can, I notice there are a couple I havent yet got round to, I will as soon as I can. Hope all goes well for the next few weeks, I expect to see a new menu release when I get back

Bye!

Greetings all,

1)adding menu item
when I add new app. the "Wizard" asks for directory, which was created under Portables.
Funny thing is that I need only one exe to be reflected as a new item it the menu.
When there are several executables in the program's folder - all of them appear as menu items ??? Not good, because sometimes launching one of executables can cause unpredictable result. Say, one or more components were not design to be manually started
2)removing menu items
I remove the directory in order to remove menu items created earlier.
