General Discussion

Log folder is created in AppData folder. It seems that PotPlayerLauncher is missing some code in it, for example this is how it is supposed to be:
[DirectoriesCleanupIfEmpty]
1=%APPDATA%\Daum\PotPlayer\Log
2=%APPDATA%\Daum\PotPlayer
3=%APPDATA%\Daum

...and this is how it is in the new, updeted version:
[DirectoriesCleanupIfEmpty]
1=%APPDATA\Daum\PotPlayer\Log
2=%APPDATA\Daum\PotPlayer
3=%APPDATA\Daum

Hi everyone,

First time post obviously - I am a developer of some 15 or so years with a focus on user experiences.

I recently found that several apps don't start anymore, for example
- Avidemux 2.7.4-5 (nothing happens, not even the splash screen appears)
- Audacity 2.3.3 (splash screen appears, after that nothing happens)

I'm not sure if it's a common bug or individual bugs of the apps.
Running with Admin-Rights doesn't work either.
No hints in PortableAppsPlatform.log or in Windows event log.
No running tasks in task manager.

I want to know how to set exceptions for platform's automatic update checker.
Because a newer version of gimp than GIMP Portable 2.10.6 Rev 2. won't work on my windows 7 32bit machine.
Now I'm using that version. But, every time the platform runs, the system tries to install bad version newer than that.
I want to stop automatic updating for a specific app.

Why is Portable chrome writing files to drive c:? I deleted the chrome folder (drive c:) and it came right back again. Tonight Google Update wouldn't run in startup.

Installation can be removed. I synchronize the mobile application directory via BtSync and when the file is moved, it will cause problems.

Hi, I have installed PortableApps Platform and several portable apps on my USB drive, but it just changed its icon/name and I can't undo this
Can someone help me ?
Thanks

I want to be able to directly start my TB's address book and used these instructions to add an app to the menu:

And these instructions to start the TB address book:

Hello, I can access the portable apps website from work, but when I install the portable apps application, it cannot get a list of apps. I assume my work's firewall is blocking it. So, I plan on downloading individual apps instead of using the portable apps application. Once I do that, how do I check for updates for individual apps?

I am not sure if "portable apps application" is the right term. I am referring to the app that shows up next to the clock to launch / install programs.

Thanks!
