General Discussion

Hey all,
I was just browsing on Yahoo and i came across this article. It mentions PortableApps and points to the site.

I guess we are going to get more of those fun App Requests!!!

Keep up the great work all.

Happy New Year

hi,

I need to use a larger usb key so I tried to move the entire content (PortableApps, Documents and files) just copying it from the Cruzer 1Gb to the Kingston 2Gb but something doesn't work.
I can't associate OpenOffice to its files, nor by "open with".

can you help me, please?
Do I need to reinstall PortableApps?
thank you

When i installed de Portable applications Suite, the programme changed the name of my memstick to "PortableApps", I tried to chamge the name, but for my suprised the name is locked, and it is difficult to distinguish between other memsticks that have the suite installed.
How can I change the name of the memstick again ????( Kingston Data Traveller 2.0 )

thanks for your time

Pedro

Could you make an PortableApps Suite which can be more... customiable.
Maybe so that you can make Pictures and compress them in a file which can be read by the suite!

It would be really cool.

This as always been a problem. Someone creates an account and creates a thread saying: "Gimme this. How do I do that?".

This is a very discussed topic, meanwhile, nobody has come to a solution about this. I think we should create a definitive solution, not just for the Request Apps Forum, but for other Forums too.

We should reduce the amount of commonly repeated threads significantly!

Okay first of all I am a n00b so try not to get frustrated with me. I'm trying to install the Suite Standard Edition on my 2GB Dane-Elec USB drive. The executable file opens and the program runs. I select the drive and click install and the progress windows pops up. After ten minutes there is still no progress.

Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong?
Thanks in advance everyone!

hey Steve, what ever happened to Lapwing it was getting somewhere good and then boom it's dead :(, anyways if your not interested in restarting do you mind if I take the sources and try and continue the project for you

Hidden in windows explorer are those little desktop.ini files. You edit them to make the folders look nice, and they don't work if you edit them at all. Does anyone have any idea how to make it so and so that it uses relative paths?

I just found this program on Lifehacker. It's called USB Disk Ejector, it's just like the Windows eject function, but you can keep it open, it just takes pushing enter to eject your drive.

And fantasticly, you can run this from the drive you're ejecting and it'll still work.

It's only freeware, but it's handy, here's the link.

The German JonDoNym anonymizer service has packed its anonymizing proxy into a portable app menu compatible paf.exe -- maybe you want to list this here, too.
