Hi,

I have PortableApps applications I would like to run at Windows startup like Ditto Portable as well as other portable applications.

Is there a Startup folder inside PortableApps (or something similar) where I could put all the portable apps I want to start when PortableApps Platform is starting ?
This way I just have to start PortableApps Platform at Windows startup and all the other portable apps I want to start with it are starting as well.

Hi,
It is possible to remove this reboot PC icon from portableapps ?

I never use it. Regards

Win 10 x64
I have to do the workaround via SyMenu and it only works when I install ONLY the 64Bit version. (in SyMenu you may choose the version)

I would like to have it in PortableApps. - Doesn't work.

Edit:
It always does to choose the 32Bit version, though I have the 64Bit OS.???

I know the problems registering portable software, but normally, this is no problem.
Associate filetypes by ending does work, but this is not a workable workaround to 35 manual jobs...

even then it falls back to any before registered windows stuff...

Hi,
I have installed Notepad++ portable and I want that all .txt files (other related file extension like .py, .css) open themselves with Notepad++ Portable (https://portableapps.com/apps/development/notepadpp_portable) .
What is the best way to do that ? With Notepad++ Windows version this is done automatically.
Regards

I am doing this now several years.

When to "install" this to drive "D"
it ends to...D:\PortableApps\PortableApps
and there it goes for all.

but if i end up to install a lonely app it goes to
D:\PortableApps

This is a bug, error or whatever you might call it.
It disturbs the whole Structure of the Project.
Please fix it.

Might be the fault in your Description of "how to..."
but it is definately wrong.

causing many problems.

Thanks!

Hi!

None of my PortableApps will be updated. I get no notification.

I love using portable apps, and I would love to see if I can customize its icon.
I was using other person's computer and found out, there was also a Google Chrome, but not portable.
I wanted to differentiate mine from them, by a simple tweak in my icon, since I always get confused.
I tried going to AppInfo to change the appicons, but it didn't work.
How can I change my GoogleChromePortable icon?
I'd love to hear your answers.
Thank you very much and may you have a wonderful day.

I've used Portable Apps from a USB for years at work on 2 or 3 PCs each day. Suddenly my employer requires USB encryption or instead use a shared network drive or Microsoft OneDrive. At some future date, inserted USBs at work will automatically be encrypted if they are not already. Also I'm told the process erases the USB, so I guess that means somehow dumping a backup of the USB back onto the drive after encryption. Please correct me if it isn't that simple. Also will encryption to a USB interfere with Portable App function?

I can't able to install google chrome in my pc but I've just downloaded portable google chrome. is its safe? Can I sync everything with my gmail?
