I want to intall a java runtime enviroment on my flash drive. I have no idea where to begin. i have read forums on it all day and i am still confused. im not sure if it is possible to run a JRE off a flash drive, even if it is only for the programs on the flash drive. does anyone know if it can be done? and how?

Hi all,

I normally keep a backup of the files on my USB drive using SyncBack. Well, I tried to take one today and all the files on my drive are one hour ahead! What's up with that! My USB drive is still on DSTime! BTW, the time on my PC is correct and updated correctly this weekend. I even had my USB drive plugged in!

Is anyone else having this problem? Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

Does any/or all of the portable apps work on windows mobile??

i love using portable APP so i mostly practice :

http://portableapps.com (of course)
and
http://www.portablefreeware.com (i love it)

Java is cross-platform, most of Java Apps don't need install(unpack and use), don't read/write Windows registry, don't modify any files except it's profile, don't copy any files but it's install folder, they only depents Java VM.

So many desktop apps is based on Java. eg: Azureus, Eclipse, BlogBridge, CrossFTP, jEdit, JamP, etc. And also, there are so many server/web apps based on Java, eg: Tomcat, JBoss, JavaDB/Derby, HSQLDB, H2, db4o, and other FTP/LDAP/DNS server software. We can use web apps to manage our infomations, in many instance, that's better than desktop apps.

There was a post last year on a Guild Wars Launcher. The link to the launcher is outdated, and I was wondering if there still is a launcher for this? Also, do you really need a launcher?

How can I simply uninstall PortableApps from my pen drive? :S

John,

Can you give us a few words on the end result of what you are trying to get to?
Just curious if you are designing and growing with no particular end result...

Thanks and keep up the great work...I use this quite a bit.

What's with the orange donation button? It looks so much worse than the one which matches the new splashes. (Example of the orange is an app's page on the left, example of the good one is included with FFP's or Toucan's help.html)

Where's the best place to post a question relating to the menu? The individual portable apps have their own forums, but there isn't one for the menu itself. It isn't an Other App, I'm sure.
