General Discussion

I like the update mechanism, but pity it cannot pause a download.

I also like the incremental updates, is it possible to download extension frameworks, templates and extra things for apps in future?

I also think the menu performs much better than in the past, no more buggy opening and closing, hiding and double click nonsense as before...

Maybe it will one day include a direct login to obtain favorites in the browser among other things, since I note mozilla spectacularly fails this test while opera only partially succeeds (reasons I will not give unless quoted).

Just a quick question regarding integrated file association in PA 12.0.

Will this function in the same way that (say) eXpresso does at the moment, or will it be a bit slicker than that?

eXpresso works fine when you are opening a saved file and you then specify the portableapp to use for opening. eXpresso is no good at opening URL links in email messages - or at least that I can see.

I click on a URL link in Thunderbird and would like the link open in (say) my portable Google Chrome app. But that doesn't happen, instead the link opens MS Internet Explorer.

Hello, I'm wondering if there is latest portable apps for firefox browser?

Not sure if this is the right place for this; if not, please let me know which is the right place.

Why is Bonjour included as an app displayed in the PortableApps menu? What is it for? I think this is new behaviour - or have I inadvertently changed some option somewhere to make it appear (which option, where please)?

I installed the newest version of AIMP portable on my usb drive recently to try it out.  I open the portableapps menu and see that it is listed as an "other" in the menu.  How do I get it to show up in the "music and video" category?  If there is a way of putting the icons and shortcuts in the correct category, please, let me know how this is done.  If this is the wrong forum area, I am sorry about putting it here.

I want to create my own menu for instance with the name MyApp.
Can this be done, and if so how to do this?
Thanx

I'd be more than happy to help out with a donation, but I will not do so using PayPal. Would it be possible to provide alternative payment options?

im running warzone portable app. i open the game and it runs upto the point of selecting a save game or starting any other game. starts to load then freezes and crashes. can anyone help??

I know this is my fault for not having a backup of the files, but I wanted to just warn people to be careful with the PAF installers, as they wipe a folder before they actually install the app, as I have just found out to my cost.

I downloaded the Java Portable installer, and ran it. It detected a PAF thumbdrive in my PC, and wanted to install there. I changed the install path to a folder on my C drive. Stupidly, I told it to install to the root of that folder, and not a new folder (such as Java or similar) that the installer could create inside that folder.
