What ever happened to switching to a monthly release schedule? There hasn't been a platform update since 10.0.1.

I tried to follow the instruction located at https://portableapps.com/node/30214 after my netbook gave me a BSOD. Here's the problem. The file in question is already gone, but uTorrent still refuses to load. What else can I look for. It was a pretty bad system crash, so...

so this is my first post. i've been all over this portable app scene for years. i have close to 2000 programs in portable format open source and otherwise. while i don't use them all, they are just waiting to be used when the time or task is right. i generally have anywhere from 5-700 programs installed on my system that have a high potential use rate. wish i could upload a dir2html list of them for brainstorming purposes. and the funny thing is i find out every day that there are new and useful programs being released all over the web.

Are there any plans to have a custom tray icon for the platform.

I would like a Black and White one Windows 7 style.

Thanks.

DamnVid doesn't seem to work for me - I tried giving it full access with Kaspersky, but I think the problem is the program itself. I tried with the normal version on their website, and it still didn't work.

I was trying to download a video from YouTube, but it just doesn't seem to work. I've tried other video downloader programs(the normal desktop versions)and all of them work, apart from DamnVid.

Just want to know is it just me(and XP) or do other people have similar problems with this software

Thanks

Hello people,

have the following problem:

I got a cheap 1GB stick given. On this all portable applications run smoothly.

I did then because of lack of space a 4 GB stick purchased, was the fastest I can find.
On this, the applications (eg SeaMonkey) do not run as well. Loading takes longer, and the websites, e-mail takes a long time to open folders.

Sometimes the program hangs for a few seconds altogether.

Problem of the stick? Have these changed twice already ...

What could be more?

Helpful answers would be nice,

Hello All,

Can any application be run within PortableApps or is it to be used only for programs that are already portable?

The program I would like to run w/n PortableApps is Real Studio (www.realsoftware.com). But to the best of my knowledge they do not have a portable version of their application.

Thanks,

Craig

Hello! I use Opera browser for years now and was very happy to see this portable version. But there is some bug I think. It does not save settings for preferred language. Every time I close it and open in is back to English.

Is anybody else have the same problem ?

I seem to remember (though I could be wrong), that there was some confusion on this site about WinVNC's encryption (what license, valid download, etc.). I came across this today (see the bottom for the license info). The download is valid for both the x86 and the x64 versons. I saw this and wanted to share...

The cap to my PortableApps.com Companion has become very loose. This flash drive has been my favorite since I received it and I use it daily.

Does anyone have any suggestions as to where I can pick up some replacement flash drive caps? I have looked and apparently they aren't easy to find. You would think there would be a market for replacement caps with all the loose and lost caps in the flash drive world.

Thanks,
