A lot of installation windows have become to appear

Submitted by Yanpas on January 13, 2016 - 1:32pm

I've noticed that 1-4 months ago, during software updates a lot of installation windows have become to appear. Most of them consist of "Next, Agree, Install and Close". It is very annoying... What has happened? Maybe it would be better to show all licences in one window and click agree only once? Licences even do appear for opensource software like firefox

Hi

It's 'bout a mounth that I can't update firefoxportable because every time I do it it made a damaged update.
Then I have to go to the site, download manually the .paf and the install it manually.
And not every time it works

It seems there some problem with download of .paf file.

I'm in italy and I'm at least on 3 totally different internet provider
I work with potableapps with 4 different machine, 1 win8, 2 win 8.1 and 1 win 10

Someone with the same problem?

Is Google Chrome version 3 available as portable app? I see it listed here, but trying to download it takes me to other versions I have zero interest in. Can anyone point me to a viable download link? Thanks.

SWI Prolog - swipl-win.exe issues a false positive in Symantec

First time poster, long time fan of PortableApps. I created an account just to ask about this. Smile

I had some expalaining to do when Symantec issued a false positive for swipl-win.exe, SWI Prolog's portable package bundled into PortableApps.

It's all resolved at this point, but I wanted to make a post to share what happened and to see if anyone else has had their A/V issue a false positive for SWI Prolog or any other apps.
