General Discussion

I've updated my .NET Availability and Viability With Portable Apps statistical and functional analysis with the latest info and worldwide OS stats. The news is a bit mixed for fans of .NET and .NET-based apps who like to use portable software.

While Windows XP has been end-of-lifed and most folks in many more prosperous countries won't encounter it anymore, it's still holding with over 25% of Windows installs. So, some folks will still have to deal with it on a regular basis.

One serious and extremely annoying problem is when you install and/or uninstall a program, the software takes you to their website via IE. Since your 3rd party browser (Opera in my case) isn't registered with the O/S, Idiot Exploiter keeps opening up which I don't use.

Checking having Opera check to see if it is the default bowser doesn't do anything.

I hadn't used LBreakout2 in ages. The last time I used it, I think it might have even been another version.

Nevertheless, now that I decided to use it, it's coming up in s small window instead of in FULL screen. And the button at the upper right of the window that would allow me to maximize the window is not active.

Any idea what's going on? How do I maximize the window? Or what am I doing wrong? I so easily played it before on FULL screen without a problem.

Or is it a problem with this version?
My version is 2.6.3.

Hi people of portableapps, I would like to know if there is another great portable application such as dropboxahk? I only want to keep my work safe in the cloud and my pendrive, I can change to other server in case need.

Hi,

my product has Christian software for people in countries where spreading the gospel might be illegal or dangerous.

I have lists of streaming radio stations, sometimes the IPs of these change or stop working.

I wrote a script to get updates using FTP using DOS but its clunky and difficult to manage. One of the free FTP accounts got terminated for being not used enough, (seems couple of times a month wasnt enough!)

please, pLEAse, ( swear words come to mind )

please do this 5 second coding job!
put a check box beside each category to check all of that category.

( i'd ask for a ctrl range selection like in win explorer too but far out. at least do the above one.

have you tried to check all boxes beside games?
you still need to manually uncheck 50 something boxes.

thanks for your time.

Mission: I'd really like to have the option to run quite a few browsers or profiles at the same time.

I keep Chrome only as a secondary browser because it comes with Flash. I uninstalled the universal Flash plugin from my system and what it to keep it that way.

Question: what might be some interesting browsers for you from the above article (or in general) or for me to do the trick?

Pale Moon? Check

Kaspersky TDSSKiller is recommending that I load the update when I launch the version that is currently installed in my PortableApps menu. Is this no longer being updated or maintained for the PortableApps suite?

If so is there a way for someone to take over this task?

Hi,
I didn't see GoogleChromePortable forum...
I don't download the GoogleChromePortable because I won't be able to have chat videos in Gmail (Hangouts plugin is needed).
I've already ask this feature in App Request but got nothing.
Can you so something about it?

hello there,

I'm rolling together my own Portable Apps distro aimed at people interested in Christianity who live in a country where that might be illegal. My product is encrypted, so the purpose of the device is ambiguous without the password.

I discovered running a browser on a USB drive really sucks as the disk performance for shuffling temp file is poor. So I hit on an idea, I managed to make a RAM disk to run a portable version of Chrome on.

When clicking on the menu to run the batch file script, it won't work as it need Administration rights.

The batch file does this:-
