General Discussion

PeaZip 2.8 was released today
http://peazip.sourceforge.net/

The 2.8 line development was focused into:
- New file/archive browser's UI, with easier selection, optional row selection, alternative details / list view.
- Improved navigation menu for browsing, extraction and archiving
- Improved scheduler launching jobs from program's GUI
- Archive conversion feature, either converting each archive separately or consolidating input archives into a single output archive of the desired format.

I have some apps in .... zip/7z/tar format and want to create paf installer. How can be done. Is there any easy way to do it ?

It would be interesting (or not) to see a graph that shows the number of official portable applications available over time (say on a monthly basis). Just purely out of curiosity.

I was just looking at the list a moment ago, seeing what apps might need updating, thinking to myself, "Wow, this list is getting pretty huge. I remember back in the good old days when I barely had to scroll the screen!"

Hi all,

i have a portable psi. When i removing flash unsafely, process psi.exe stay of memory and psi working fine.
I needed with removing flash unsafely , psi.exe was killed.
Can you help me?

Thank you a lot.

I've seen that PortableApps has a Linux build in the works, but I'd like to partition my 16GB USB and install a distro on it right now... But due to a Grub error, as well as the abnormal type of installation I currently have, all I can use on my laptop right now in WinXP; so could someone point me to one that's easy to set up in a persistent state, and that can easily be installed via windows (without having to burn a CD-R)?

I was wondering how other people handle the issue of keeping their portableapps up to date? I know you can subscribe by RSS to PA.c news updates, but is there a program or anything that I could run which would check whether new versions of specific apps (i.e. the ones I have installed) exist?

I found this:
https://portableapps.com/node/16779

An outdated updater for portableapps. I am guessing this is exactly what I'm looking for - but I don't suppose I should use it as it's "OUTDATED!!!".

Why wouldn't this work? Seems like such a bright idea, but I gotta be overlooking something?

You put your flash drive in, you're using XP, you tell it yes, go ahead and start the PortableApps.com Platform.

There is a new menu out there: Geek.menu. as its readme states, "geek.menu is a portableApps Menu replacement with many features targeted towards a more technical audience. It is built upon the strong base of the PortableApps.com menu code, with many enhancements. Here is a quick list of the changes from the portableApps Menu."

I signed up for the Portable Apps newsletter around a year ago and I have never gotten an email.

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.
