Is it really that difficult to make a feature specifying multiple folders?
Ye, many people have requested this feature for many years, but the developer has never response for it.
Is it so hard to make it?
I don't understand.

This is not a criticism as I know it is a lot of work to keep all the apps on portableapps up to date. And I thank the team for their work and effort.

Originally I had PortableApp installed to my Google Drive account. Everything worked but it was sooo sluggish to launch PA applications and my PC seemed to take longer to idle down after a restart. The worse offending thing seemed to be running web browsers from cloud. Google Drive was constantly uploading temp files from the web browers (google/firefox/opera) as I used them. This not only slowed down my network but I constantly had to purge my GD trashcan of these files.
https://filezilla-project.org/ has restartable download after fail
I have an Internet service which Speed tests to 0.58 mbps. It is slow, yes. PrortableApps downloads will fail on my computer. Its download code can't restart from a failure point. Thus there are problems of installing Apps and updating Apps.
Help me understand how to implement the function of adding my hosts.txt file to the c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts file in PortableApps in such a way that before loading (a copy of the original hosts file was made to the hosts_backup file name), it was added hosts.txt to hosts, and after closing the program, the hosts file was deleted from hosts_backup and renamed to the original name? Just write where to write the names of the .cmd or .bat files that will be run, because I can't find information about this in your documentation. Thank you.
Portable applications are by far the best gift to the whole world of computer users, and I am deeply grateful for your efforts and existence. I would like to suggest that alongside LibreOffice and ApashOffice, separate applications be created for text, spreadsheets, and presentations, because I believe a large number of people use either one or the other. This would reduce PC RAM usage and speed up work with office applications. Sincere regards,

Is the portable version of uTorrent safer than the normal version? And more addless?
I heard that the normal uTorrent is a malware because of mining crypto policy. How is that compared to the portable version?
In overall, is it true? or just speculation from open source fanboys?
