Adding Other Apps to the PortableApps.com Menu

Submitted by clexidra on January 17, 2012 - 7:30am

Hello,
I need to link an apps to the PortableApps menu (for this apps doesn't exista portable version) and I'd like to put the link in the portableApps menu.

I followed the instruction in the help section "Adding Other Apps to the PortableApps.com Menu" but my apps as more than one file with the .exe extension so I see in the portableApps menu 3 different files and not only the executable files of the apps.

Is it possible to see only the .exe file that starts my apps ?

thanks

Is this fake?

I've found the site: [Link removed as is our policy on such illegal sites - mod Chris]
Does it have anything related with this portableappS.com? If not, I think it´s better let everyone knows.

Portable Google Chrome - XP - Read Only Problem

Submitted by eager on January 15, 2012 - 10:46am

Hello,

I'm trying to change the permissions for Portable Google Chronme from Read Only in XP Pro.

I've accessed Administrator as well as regular user to change it but it's not retaining the changes.

There's a green box inside a larger box next to Read Only. I can remove that green box and click Apply where it prompts me to apply to all folders and sub-folders with I do next to that option. I click Apply and then OK.

But, when I right click Properties again that green box reappears.

I'm trying to run Google Portable Chrome on my desktop PC.

Clamwin portable

I keep getting this result from clamwin portable:

Z:\tor\Tor Browser\App\tor-resolve.exe: Trojan.Fakesec-310 FOUND
Z:\tor\Tor Browser\App\tor.exe: Trojan.Fakesec-310 FOUND
Z:\tor\Tor Browser\App\vidalia.exe: Trojan.Fakesec-310 FOUND
Z:\tor\Tor Browser\App\mingwm10.dll: Trojan.Fakesec-310 FOUND

Is this a false positive? It must be because none of the antivirs at jotti recognizes it.

Cheers.
