General Discussion

I know, flash back to 2007 or so.

Just bringing this up as it seems to be affecting me, but is there a particular file format for the usb to run portable apps best?

I need to carry some sensitive data around with me, as well as being able to use portable apps. I cant predict what computer/OS I will be using the drive on so needs to be something that uses encryption/password protection and will work on any computer. Ive found the following:

Sandisk extreme cz80: https://www.amazon.ca/SanDisk-Extreme-Flash-Drive-s-SDCZ80-016G-GAM46/dp...

I would like to raise a point for discussion.
It started on a different thread but it belongs here.

The current policy (Or at least the way I understand it) of PortableApps is to support applications if and only if they have 32 Bit version.

Lately, as in any progress, there are some great applications which are, to begin with, 64 Bit only.

i know this is a long shot,but ive comne across keepass for passwords etc,and ive learnt that the small script keeform will help import passwords etc when needed,but of course they dont do it anymore,and i cant find it anywhere,can anybody point me in right direction, thank you in advance

As of Firefox 48, extensions must be signed to be able to be used with Firefox stable and beta. Extension developers can use Firefox Developer Edition to continue developing and testing extensions. There is, however, some desire to test on the current stable before releasing to be sure all is well. Unfortunately, Firefox provides no way to disable the signature requirement to test your extensions.

Just a heads up that FossHub was hacked. Reports are coming in that downloads of ClassicShell and Audacity were affected (possibly more). Both ClassicShell and Audacity use FossHub as their official download site, so if you went to Audacity's site and selected to download the local version of Audacity, you might be affected. The malware in question wipes your PC's master boot record rendering the PC unbootable once you reboot.

Hi Mr. Gord Caswell,
I want to run a portable Android fie manager app on a usb hard drive e.g.ES File Explorer File Manager by ES Global in Google Play Store.
In your reply to J dub dated March 29, 2013 under the Topic : "USB hosting with portable apps on android", you advised J dub that he could run the apps off his phone when he used his phone as a usb drive.

not sure where to post stuff like this so please correct me asap.

so i was using the Everything app from voidtools to check if there are leftovers from my apps whenever i exit them.
i found one leftover from the Transmission-Qt app in the C:\Users\Admin\AppData\Local directory.
the folder name was transmission.

that's it, pretty much.

btw, i was wondering when the Everything app was going to move out of Dev Test since i love the app so much and i would like it to be in paf.

Hello all,

I wanted to know if any of the supplied apps hosted here on portableapps.com offer the ability to burn a mp4 file onto a DVD video disc. To be more specific, I recorded a church service for someone last week, and it was requested of me to be able to burn it to a playable DVD which can be watched on a DVD player. Is there anything I can use that will allow this while using the mp4 format?

I just downloaded Portable onto my flash drive and tried to scan C: but came up with this error.
What can I do?
