General Discussion

maybe, if you had a lot of apps on your portable apps platform, you could have a search bar on the bottom right of the bar. maybe somewhere beneath the word "help" and above the eject and exit buttons.

the search bar would let you search for key words or letters in app names.

I've installed portable apps on my hard drives for years without a problem (Firefox, VLC, many more). However, I notice VLC takes FOREVER to open compared to the "regular" (non-portable) version. This leads me to a question that people ask but I can never answer:

Are portable apps "on your PC" generally slower? If so, why? Has anyone ever tested?

Hi, sorry if this belongs in the off-topic, but I figured I'd put it here in case theres a portable app for the software.

I love the program Fireworks (made by Adobe) but, it's not portable, and I also love open source.

the situation: since long time, i was searching how to make the PAM really automatically autorun directly from a normal usb-stick, when plugin (winxp) and NOT first showing up the context-menu of xp, where i have to choose to open the PAM by this autorun.inf first.
I mean i wanted an autostart as known from the U3-system, but this wasn't possible because therefore is needed a cd-partition on the stick that only could autorun on winxp and this seemed not to be possible on normal usb-sticks.

I am trying to set up PokerStars on my flash drive and it works fine, but the PortableApps launcher auto-adds links to all the EXE files like the updater and the uninstaller, 6 in all. When I tried changing the other EXE files to COM, PokerStars updates itself and recreates the EXE files.

I could not find where to post this exactly, but I really just wanted to say to John. T. and everyone else involved, That AssaultCube is just AWSESOME.
It reminds me sort of like CS, but also the original 1998 Unreal, I use to play a mod called Infiltration. And I still play Q3 Arena, And to be able to play such games portable, and the fact that my computers are some what older, and money is an issue at times, and all my kids (7) love this game, 4 of them college students..:)
Good find.

Hi, Christmas is coming up, and i'm getting the treat of a new flash drive.
Now, I've been using a 2GB PNY Attache, works nice, sometimes I got apps that I put on my iPod 80GB

Ok, now, I don't always carry my iPod cord with me, and it does get filled (no not THAT much music, I do movies, cause I like watching Christmas Vacation on my 1 hour school bus ride) and, well I'm running out of space on the 2GB, I like to maintain enough space considering I go to a trade school, and i'm part of Information Technology.

Hello,
I just wanted to send my appreciation for the portable apps platform. I've been using it with USB devices for years, It is the perfect way to work on personal items at work without using the software. It's good to have all of this contained to the USB. Lately I have found a new use for Portable Apps.
