At the moment, Nvu is still the main HTML editor listed in the directory. But, as most folks know, Nvu development was stopped in June of 2005 and will not be continued. Eventually, Composer2 will be released (maybe) and be based on the newer XULRunner setups in Firefox2, etc.

I went on the computers at our school for the first time today. My homepage on Firefox is start.portableapps.com. The page came up as blocked due to freeware and software download. I went to the homepage of PortableApps, and guess what? Blocked (As I assumed it would be). I am probably one of the only people at my school who goes on the website, and I got it blocked. Kinda funny how much people will go through to stop you from doing stuff. It's not like this site is going to do anything to us at all... grrrr.

I am currently using PortableVault - non PortableApps programme.

Running the PortableApps menu I have tried to add PortableVault but each time PortableVault runs rather than appears in the list of PortableApps programmes.

Can anyone suggest a way that the PortableVault could be aed to the PortableApps startup utility?

Thanks.

PS I am new to PortableApps and am very impressed with the programmes people have made vailable.

First off, I really love portable apps and all the development that has been going on towards portablizing apps...it's been a long time coming.

AFter using it a while I was thinking that it might be advantageous to separate the settings from the apps.

So something like...

\PortableApps\FireFox
\PortableApps\FileZilla

\Settings\FireFox
\Settings\FileZilla

While this might seem like more to manage now that each app has TWO folders, I think it would help for the following reasons:

Havy anyone image viwer portable?
I need!
thank´s

I'm new to Portable Apps & U3 & have some questions around security for Portable Apps. I like the security in U3 but want to can it & move completely to Portable Apps. Does anyone know of any plans to build security into Portable Apps or can anyone recommend a good piece of security software for securing folders on my USB key?

Thanks

how does the PAM change the icon on a flash drive from the "Removeable Disk" icon to the "Portable Apps" icon? i am really curious.

Is there anyway for me to add custom folders to the portable apps menu? I would like to put a games button next to the music, video, and pictures. (I have some really small flash games)

BTW, I apologize if this is already somewhere on the fourms (I could not find it) or if I put this in the wrong place or something.

Thank You!

Hello!

I wondered a long time right now whether I should update firefox etc with the autoupdater or use the download in this forum... are the portable features unusable if i use the autoupdater in the app?? i declined the infotool that reminded me to update my app(s) now many times but there're a lot changes right now in the newer versions and I want to make an update imeditally... My sumerised question:

May I let Firefox (Thunderbird etc.) do his update by itself or should I use the download here and decompress the app about my old version??

Does PortableApps handle only open source software? Or can other no-charge software be included, as long as redistribution is not a problem?

Thank you.
