General Discussion

Not sure where i should post this, but its just a simple theme i have been playing with for a few hours. it is by no means complete.

PSD files are included with layers set up in a way that you can figure out what goes where in case you want a template to start making your own backgrounds with.

to remove transparency just open the chrome.psd file, disable the pink layer, and save as chrome.png in the same folder.

Da question.

I'm interested in giving away engraved USB keys with Portableapps Platform to special customers as a gift.

Is the Suite installed in the PA-Companion placed in a ROM or is it deletable by my customers (not apreciated)?

If it is simply preinstalled in the FLASH part and as I'm located in Germany, could I simply buy some blank USB keys an install a PA-Platform with preselected programs suitable for them?

And: Would it be a problem with engraving the German Umlauts (ä, ö, ü)?

I have version 11.2 and I need help in removing "Music" from my main menu.
I have read back issues on this and from what I can tell, the information is outdated.

Is there a way to remove it?

I am using this as a utility tool at work and I believe if IT was to see "music" they would think it non-work related.

Thanks ahead for any suggestions.

I concur with "beeje"'s comment.
To support PortableApps which I and colleagues use (in addition to donating), I have bought some of these Carbides to give as gifts, but it has blown up in my face and I am now scrambling to support what should have been a trouble-free gift.

1. On page https://store.customusb.com/info/ is the following:

NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!
why ?

or maybe its problem with my pap

when i click on pap and select check for updates
instead of list of apps that i COULD update

it start updating them right away
NOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!

but seriously is it new feature or problem with my pap ?

any way if its to be this way now than if i have opened app that could be updated than it will ask me to close or update after close or do nothing or what ?

I'm looking for a way to change the location of the autorun.inf file so that the portable apps platform can still 'read' its contents. Currently this file is in the main area of my flashdrive, but for sake of organization I'd rather it be in the portable apps folder. Is there a file I can change to alter the location of autorun.inf?

so im trying to make winamp portable i was trying to do so with this tutorial

http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/how-to-make-a-portable-version-of-winamp-fo...

but seems it did not work

cause winamp have 2 folders

1st where winamp is stored
(this folder contains all winamp files and can be anywhere)

2nd where winamp settings are stored
(C:\Documents and Settings\USERNAME\Application Data\Winamp
this folder contains winamp settings and if its not there winamp will create it by it self)

Just wanted to say thanks John for the Christmas gift.....Next question is how did you manage to sneak it in? I loved it when I found it!!!!!!!!!

In case everyone thinks me daft I do not remember it being there LOL
