Is there a way to have the MD5sums of the various installers (those that are full installers not preloaders) and a way to confirm the sums are correct to prevent
%App% download is corrupt type problems?

Hi,

Because Skype is not OSS, so there are not older versions on PortableApps.com.

So, does anybody have Skype Portable 3 ?

Hello!

I monitored a program using Process Monitor, but today I found a problem while filtering.

I wanted to see what files were created during the installation, so I set up a filter to show only
"Disposition: Create".

Now I tried to look in that log for a file I certainly know was created during the installation. I copied its name and put it in the search function - nothing found.
it searched through the whole updated log with "Disposition: Create" filter but did not find the name of the file.

I've found several comments about this, but I've not found a solution. I'm currently trying to recover my ThunderBird Inbox following an error resulting from hibernation while using ThunderBirdPortable. Does anyone know a solution? For some reason I can't change the setting for what I want my computer to do when I close the lid. The option is greyed out (I'm using Windows 7 Starter).

I'm thinking of going back to XP, because otherwise I don't know how I can carry on with my current system of running PortableApps from my external hard drive.

Hi everybody,

is there any way for changing the directory, which is used while an app installation?
Normaly, in my case, this is drive C, where Windows is installed on. Bur my problem now is, there isnt any other space left, only windows fits in the partition size and some lowsize tempfiles, thats all.
But now, i cant install anything new. Because most of these portable apps are using the common temp directory for unpacking.

any ideas?
working with "Set temp= D:\" or similar doesnt work.

I want know are there any portable ISO files making software? If so please tell me is name.

Is there a way to run an app that is not in a standard directory?

For example, I run a bootCD image off of my thumb drive as well as PortableApps. There are a few tools in the bootCD directory I would like to add to my PortableApps menu, but want to keep in their folder off the root directory for the USB drive.

Any Ideas?

Hi all--

I have always used a Kingston or SanDisk for Live Boot and Portable App scenarios, but being in the field so often I'd like to get one of the wee little keys. Do y'all have any experience with these in Portable App and Live Boot scenarios?

I am switching to Portable Apps from [illegal software].
The latter, however, has an advantageous feature of grouping the apps under headings like Audio, File Management, Graphics etc.
How can I do that in Portable Apps?

I've discovered a couple errors in the update.ini:

CoolPlayer+Portable:
DisplayVersion is currently listed as 2.19.12, this should be 2.19.2

DShutdownPortable:
DisplayVersion is currently listed as 1/72.1, this should be 1.72.1
