"This is an online installer that will download additional files during setup."

What other files are downloaded with any program?

Do these freeware expire?

Hi

It's 'bout a mounth that I can't update firefoxportable because every time I do it it made a damaged update.
Then I have to go to the site, download manually the .paf and the install it manually.
And not every time it works

It seems there some problem with download of .paf file.

I'm in italy and I'm at least on 3 totally different internet provider
I work with potableapps with 4 different machine, 1 win8, 2 win 8.1 and 1 win 10

Someone with the same problem?

My AV program claims that smartdb-ntfs.zip is a compression bomb. This came to my desktop via one of the *.paf.exe files. I am not sure of which one.

Is Google Chrome version 3 available as portable app? I see it listed here, but trying to download it takes me to other versions I have zero interest in. Can anyone point me to a viable download link? Thanks.

First time poster, long time fan of PortableApps. I created an account just to ask about this.

I had some expalaining to do when Symantec issued a false positive for swipl-win.exe, SWI Prolog's portable package bundled into PortableApps.

It's all resolved at this point, but I wanted to make a post to share what happened and to see if anyone else has had their A/V issue a false positive for SWI Prolog or any other apps.

The Linux Foundation finally open their HTTPS certificate service for everyone to join. I am hoping that PortableApps in the future support HTTPS.

I recommend using the Linux Foundation HTTPS. It’s free, automated, and open, for more detail see the website; https://letsencrypt.org/

Could we find and implement replacement for DamnVid? As it can't download videos from YT (or I'm so stupid that I can't get it working) and developer stated that he doesn't plan to support program anymore (I e-mailed him about it). If I can suggest a replacement I would probably suggest Youtube-dlG (Youtube-dl with GUI), it's public domain, it's a bit heavy with 80MB, but it works.

I didn't wanted to post this topic in requested apps as I don't know what app should be requested, maybe someone will have a better suggestion.

I have Firefox, Chrome and Thunderbird running, is there a way to automatically get them checked and updated by portableapps?

Thanks:)

After a recent hard drive failure, and my own failure to make regular daily backups, I'm looking for a good, reliable program which can one-way sync one hdd to another. I used to use SyncBackFree, and it served the purpose well, but it has one major problem for me. Let's say we have a hard drive with folders a, b, c, d and e on them (large folders, with many subdirectories), and I rename folder b to something else. SyncBackFree won't simply rename that folder; it will replace the entire thing. Obviously with large amounts of content that is a problem.
