General Discussion

I´m using a lot of different Portable Apps on my PCs, Notebook and even Tablet.
But it seems to me, that it is not possible, to organize for example Thunderbird or Office Libre as a standard program for one or more spezific file-types like .doc or .eml - and so a doubleklick on a file like xyz.doc does´nt open office libre or Pricelist.eml doesn´t open Thunderbird.
I think, the reason is, that portable apps ar not registered in the registry because they don´t need to be installed.

Is there any workaround to solve my problem?

Created an account using my outlook.com email address. Never got the verification email. Created a second account using my gmail.com email address. Got the verification email almost immediately.

I used the term blacklisted because I checked thoroughly, and there was no verification message in my junk mail. Not to mention, I was watching for it.

Is there a postal mailing address for sending checks as donations?

There are two things bugging me about the PortableApps launcher. The first one was when it stopped working from system folders, like ProgramFiles. I believe that should be an on/off feature, not an ultimatum. We portable software enthusiasts are power users, aren't we? But I kinda got used to it.
Another thing that keeps nagging me is that "xyz did not close properly last time" popup. It mostly happens the next portable app launch after I shutdown the PC without quitting the app.

Hi!

I use PortableApps on a cloud-service. Because this I didn´t have so much space. Last updates the launcher installs let the folder grow. Why?

Is it simple because the updated app is bigger as the old or are there any install/backup files with the update?

Hope you can understand my question. Thank you.

Hi -

Firstly, love portable apps... I find it a really convenient way of having apps I use available to use either on my own PC's or others using DropBox...

Anyway, I have an issue and was thinking something like PortableApps - if not Portable Apps itself - might be a solution. I have an air-gapped network with no internet access. Is it possible to get the portable Apps client to search a prestaged, pre-populated repository of permitted apps?

I first created some Scribus files on my desktop and put them on a jump drive. I figured that the Scribus program would also have to be present for those files to open. So I downloaded the portable version of Scribus on the the flash drive. The files would not open.

As Firefox is ending support for extensions very soon, it looks like it will become rather useless then.
Which browser will still be able to use some extensions after Nov 17?
Which browser is recomended replacement?
Chrome based once are not really an alternative, as they can not be made portable really, so what will remain?

There seems to be very many processes for a single program:

Is it like it should be?

When I open PortableApps.com, it prompts for me to update the apps. I allow that but, during the updates, Malwarebytes audibly warns that "Threats have been detected". What happened?
