General Discussion

I just wanted to express my gratitude to the creator of PortableApps. I haven't visited this site in a while now, and I was pleasantly surprised that the suite has taken that next step forward. I love the PAM, and how it makes everything easy to manage

Keep up the excellent work, I look forward to future updates!

Peace,

New user, so please excuse my ignorance...

I've got a Kingston Data Traveller II (2GB) on a Dell Inspiron 6000. OS is XP Professional SP 2.

Installed the basic suite plus some extras like Gimp and Audacity. Everything seemed to be working fine.

But, when I went to remove the drive, I clicked "safely remove" and it told me that it was unable to stop the drive at this time.

I looked in the Portable Apps menu for some way to shut the app down. There is an "x" button at the bottom of the menu, but it doesn't do anything.

I plugged in my drive and I saw the U3 partition (I installed smithtechs's applauncher on it) was gone :puzzled:. I discovered the launchpadinstaller from sandisk. I tought of making a backup, but that option was available in the installer so I didn't. I ran the installer: My drive was fryd and my files where gone :jawdrop:. Got my Documents back with an app that scans you're drive for deleted files :cool:, but all my portableapps where stille gone :(. I hate U3!!!!!!

Hello all

I have a 2 gig usb flash. I put TrueCrypt on the first 3 mb, the rest I put in a TrueCrypt volume. I'm using TrueCrypt travel so when I plug in my usb it starts TrueCrypt, I then put in my password. This opens a folder with Portable Apps. in it. How can I get Portable Apps. to autorun afer I put my password in?
I tried App Launcher in the TrueCrypt volume but this did not work.

Thank you

Although it's irritating, I don't particularly want or need to stop the AutoPlay feature that runs EVERY TIME I connect my USB drive / USB stick to a running Windows machine. I gather I could use TweakUI to disable AutoPlay for some/ all drivenames, but I'd rather do this, if at all, by direct editing of the registry. Can anybody tell me how to do this?

How does one go about creating a folder on the right side by the "Documents" folder.
Thanks for your time

(Ok, I'm new to this sort of thing, so please excuse me if I sound a bit ignorant.)

I recently downloaded and installed several portable apps onto my SanDisk flash drive, which was plugged into USB Port G/ on my Laptop.

But when I plug it into any port other than G/ whether on mine or another computer, unless I plug it into Port G/, the apps will not run.

This is extremely unconvenient, as some of the computers I use do not have a Port G/, only F/ and E/

May I modify the header menu ?

Hey guys,

I may be getting a new USB drive (same size or larger capacity) and wanted to know the recommended way to copy everything over to the new drive.

Can I just 'copy' it over (or first copy the contents to my PC's HD and then copy to the new USB drive)?

Or should I use the 'backup' button on the portableapps menu?

Hello for all

I would like to have as on U3 a software which with the launching of portableapps modifies the wallpaper.

-It is possible to launch a software to the starting of portableapps? If yes how?

-Do you know a software which modifies the wallpaper at its launching ? if yes, which ?

Thank you in advance

Sorry for my English because i'm french.
