Beta Testing

This release has been outdated by an updated release:
PortableApps.com Platform 1.1 Beta 4

I've posted a package of Portable Apps Menu 1.0.2 Beta 3. I'm calling it a pre-release until I can get some folks to verify that it introduces no new bugs over the 1.0.2 Beta 2 release.

New in this version:

I have created a new portable version of OpenWorkbench (Open Workbench is a desktop application for project management and scheduling in which you can define a work breakdown structure, set dependencies and resource constraints, assign resources to tasks, auto schedule and then monitor progress).

I was looking at Windows Planner and Gantt Project, but this was something I had already toyed with. Not too sure if its 100% working. Basically rushed it out for Christmas as the other 2 where taking longer to work with. If it does do better than expected I will do a bit more work to it.

Hi I have sort of made litestep portable! When SourceForge accept, then i can post a link!

Hello,

Ok Mov'Amp is allready a portable apps but with this Portable version all your data was backup in the Data directory so after you can use the Portable Apps Backup.

Test it here : http://www.gt-online.fr/PortableApps/MovampPortable-0.5.paf.zip

For this release i'm going to pretend that every computer has java. (From my experience almost all do, so the java crutch doesn't bother me.)

I put together a portable version of Azureus 2.5.0.0 with the advanced statistics plugin pre-installed. I used a compiled batch file rather than NSIS, which will work (in theory) on WinNT/2k and XP. It might work on Vista-- if a Vista user could test this compatibility that would be great.

Anyway...

Hi beta testers!

I made a portable app of the great program Overhoor. At the moment it's nothing more or less than a launcher with the right name 7zipped in a paf file.

The author of the original program mailed me that he likes the idea and will allow continued development if the files installed by the original setup will not be modified.

Please tell me whether you like it or not, and if the program leaves some unwanted traces on systems it's used on.

AVE 1.1 has now been released. AVE is the AutoStart Visual Editor. It allows you to quickly and easily add, remove or reorder items in an INF file. The main update in 1.1 is the new way in which it parses INF files. This should mean that it works with all INF files rather than just those of AutoStart. You can get it here

Any comments would be welcome.

Update 2006-12-12 - I have just published AVE 1.11 which is identical to 1.1 except that it fully supports the Portable Applications Format making it easy to use with the Portable Apps Menu. If you already have 1.1 there isn't really any reason to upgrade.

Go to the menu of Portable Apps, and select Options
Select "Install Portable App," and point it to the .paf.exe file.
To run, go to the Portable Apps folder where all the Apps' data is held, and click "truckdismountPotable" then run that portable.exe or to work from the menu, read below.

Well, now, this would be my first Portable App!

Paint.NET is an image manipulation software similar to Photoshop, but less complex, and more easy-to-understand than GIMP.(at least for me)

Paint.NET Portable is actually 1 more MB than regular Paint.NET, because I've not UPX'd it yet. This is Beta 0.5 of the portable app, and for the actual program's version beta 3.0 v1.

The download size is 6.1 MB, and the actual files are 15.9 MB I believe.
(.7z format, use your portable 7-zip!)
