Hello,

I like PortableApps!

But I have a minor "problem" ...

I have a few apps which autostart on portableapps start. But almost every day one of them has an update available. So I have to close the app, install the update and start this app again.

Is there a way to delay the autostart of a program until the update check for them is done? and if there is a update the autostart will follow the update?

Regards

I'm getting this error when I try to download 7-Zip from the PortableApps Platform:

Download Error: Redirection (303) on file http://portableapps.com/redirect/?s=p&a=7-ZipPortable&d=sfpa&wv=7&f=7-ZipPortable_19.00.paf.exe

Thanks for all your work!

Hi,

with my computers (W7 and W10) I have the same behaviour.

When the systems were new (or reformatted) the launchers (the programs created with PortableApps Launcher) worked fine.
After some time (may be after other programs installations), Windows, EVERY TIME I launch a PApps applications (EVERY APPLICATIONS), show the window to execute them with admin privileges.

The normal programs start normally.

How can you explain this? An how can I correct it?

Thanks.

Loading on to 2nd pc thunderbird did not show my 5 email accounts and I seem to have lost all my folders and all my current and saved email history. What it did request was to set up an initial email account - which I did - and this obviously modified my profile. Somewhere I found that if my address book was accessible then perhaps the rest (all that I have seemingly lost) could be still available. I have looked at my profile and there are some large files - might these be my history and lost files. Can I rescue these files. I am a relative novice in this area. Help please.

I have seen Walmart branded thumb drives--the Onn line.

Has anyone used them? I am rather hesitant to use it, when I can get an equivalent storage drive for just a couple bucks more fom sandisk or kingston.

But I'm always open to saving money. I suppose people here use a lot of thumb drives, so I'm wondering if folks here have had good or bad experiences with that line.

When I click a link in an e-mail a new window of Firefox opens (without my add ons, bookmarks and settings) instead of the link to be opened in the same Firefox window.

How could I correct it?

Hi, I have problem with Portable Firefox, it is my default browser to start links but when I click on link on Viber Desktop it launches Firefox in new window with other profile which is located in Roaming profile on system disk...Now I have 2 windows of same program running 2 different profiles...How to manage this, I want to open links with my main profile, which is on usb drive?
