Does anyone know if that is possible? Any links in emails that I read in PortableThunderbird I want to open into PortableFirefox, instead of the system default browser.

Thanks for any help or suggestions.

Is there an official portable apps template or do u have to "Edit" exsisting scripts? Cause it would be easier if there was a basic script to use, cause i have been using the Portable App template 2.5 in an attempt to make a portable app, but there are some parts of it that i dont get.

I was wondering if anyone has any of those tiny laptops that run on winxp, like QDO and thier ilk. Has anyone used the portable apps on them? I would presume that they work the same as it would on normal PCs. Screen size would seem to be my only concern.

It seems like this page is a little out of date: https://portableapps.com/apps/compatibility

It does not have a lot of the newer released Portable Apps. Particularly I'm interested in Wine/Linux compatibility.

Are there plans to update this page? Does anyone else have any information on newer Portable Apps' compatibility with Wine/Linux?

Thanks.

has anyone tried the "rohos mini drive" encryption software? i did see it come up at another posting, but it was just a mention--i am looking to see if someone has 'real' experience using it...

on the typing app on this post?

I know typefaster is portable but what about the other's mentioned in the post.
thanks

I know it has been covered various times but nothing concrete happened. So I'll sum it up...

How many developers are currently working on the Portable Apps (1.5/2.0) menu? Are they the developers of all known previous Mod's?

When can we expect the 1.5 Beta and the updated descriptions? This month? 3 months? 6 months?

What is the reason for the delay? Is the new format description not ready? Is there no 1.5 Alpha?

Can we please skip v1.1 and move on to 1.5/2.0?

I use Stopzilla(Please, don't get insulting with comments like no one uses it) and it tells me Media-Codec.D was detected when I ran the most recent paf version of Keepass.

I set StopZilla to allow it. What infotrmation can I send to the StopZilla folks to have Media-Codec.D allowed by default?

Thanks

"The best things on your USB key are free. The open-source PortableApps Suite is a free 89MB download that installs Firefox, the Thunderbird e-mail client, the Gaim instant messenger, the Sunbird calendar app, and the OpenOffice.org office suite—basically all you need to get work done on the road. If you are using a smaller USB key, a 30MB "Lite" version uses the more compact AbiWord word processor instead of the full OpenOffice.org.

To make:
Start Command Prompt. (Start->Run->cmd)
type in cd\(general path to your file) e.g like "cd\documents and settings\user\desktop"
just where it is at, not its exact location.

here is what u type if it is just in the C:\ location
Type "attrib" (filename or folder with complete path) +s +h
the +s stands 4 system file
the +h stands for hidden

To undo what u did do the exact opposite

To remove: type "attrib" c:\(file u chose) -s -h

for other locations besides C:\

Type "cd\(general path to your file)" then do as follows
