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?

hi

Hello, I wish to remove some apps from my console. I do a comparison on similar apps offered through Portable Apps and wish to only keep one of each kind at present. How might I remove from my console? Thank you.

Just think of it... why can't I just get my portable Chrome on a USB-stick to
another computer and go along with it, and continue to work?
