General Discussion

I'm looking to automate the installation of a couple portable application into a build process.

I was wondering if there is an API available to get the list of version for a specific application. I'm willing and able to just scrape the web pages, but I was hoping there might be a more official and sanctioned way to get this data.

Thank you!

What is t do, the portableApps.com is installed and running on a stick example drive number LW D:\

What’s going on with the forum? Hacked? There are a lot of old posts labeled -nuked- and posted by the same user

New to forum. I'm trying to use PortableApps platform across machines with a flash drive, specifically with AIMP. When I load up data onto the common flash drive, it stays while I use a specific computer, BUT when moving to another machine, if the DRIVE LETTER CHANGES all of the associations from that drive are lost. How do I make the apps on PortableApps truly "portable?" THANK YOU, in advance, for your help.

Hi,

I was wondering if there was any chance to see the policy around 64-bit applications evolve in the near future. IMHO, I find the statement that "there is normally little or no performance benefit from running a native 64-bit app instead of its 32-bit build" somehow disputable and I would really love to see some important apps in 64 bits (in my case, I'd like to see FireFox, Thunderbird, LibreOffice and Inkscape in native 64-bit builds).

"this app cant run on your pc"- get this on start.exe
getting this on pc with windows 10 ib\nstalled, ran fine a few days ago, i think there was a windows update and now wont run, just get this error message - help.

Since a couple of months there is a problem with the update-download of DatabaseBrowserPortable_5.3.2.13_English.paf.exe :

Download Error: Access Forbidden (403) on file http://portableapps.com/redirect/?s=p&a=DatabaseBrowserPortable&d=pb&p=h...

This might be a simple question. I am using a USB to carry all the portable apps. It works very well except when I change computer, the USB drive letter also change. I set the Google download fold in the USB itself e.g. e:\download. This doesn't work for different computers. Any solution? Thanks in advance.

Hi,

The portable version of Thunderbird is pretty old. Is it still supported in the sense that there will be updates coming, or should I look somewhere else?

Thanks
