Hello All

Brand new to the site so please forgive me if I get it slightly wierd?

Saw this and I think it is an awesome idea but I am a bit confused. Is there a packaging tool that I can use to convert apps to portable applications?

So what I want to do is say find a widget like Trellian Web designer tool and run the install "through" some application and be presented with a portableapp that I can then just "move" to the users machine when they ask for it. Have I got it totally wrong?

If not can you tell me what the packager is called?

Thanks all

Well, the school always tries to screw me up and well, looks like they were going to ban me again from their computers when they saw me running a batch file. (I was showing a joke to my computer-impaired friend).

echo OK off you go.

As most folks know, we package KeePass Portable for portable use. We use the 1.0 (aka Classic) branch as it works on nearly all PCs. KeePass also has the "Professional Edition" (aka 2.0) branch which is .NET-based and, thus, won't work on most PCs you encounter in the wild.

Hi, I had used the News upgrades history list back to June 09 as a source of checking that I had the most up-to-date version of apps but find today that the list only goes back to Nov 09. what has happened to the rest?

thanks

My Kingston 32gig often gets a corrupted file, usually in a sub-directory, that instead of having the name it shoud it has u-u and cannot be deleted without re-formatting the drive. I have tried fat32 and ntfs. any ideas?

Since there´s no Tips & Tricks forum, I assume the better place to post may be here.

I´ve seen a lot of people asking how to create shortcuts with relative paths in windows, some say it´s just no supported etc etc At the end of the day there are several ways, like creating a windows shortcut files (.ink) or using a bat file wich can be converted to an exe with an icon file. Anyway non of both are ideal / have several disadvantages, so I´m going to share a method that works great for me and hopefully it may be useful for you as well.
