General Discussion

I know there has been alot of discussion about file encrypters, however has anyone got any recomendations about any USB Folder Protectors. I have been researching Keynesis Lockngo program, and that seems great to lock down your drive, however i just want to lock certain folders (with out encrypting/or with, but fast access).

Folder Password Expert USB seems good, but trial version dosn't really allow enough options to work with, and Folder Lock, is good, but i'd prefer to have a program with keyboard shortcuts that allow me to unlock folders (similar to Universal Shield).

Is there such

Lately I found out something good!

If you have a really good program and you cant find its portable version, this is for you!

Install winrar, go to the programs installed directory and click create archive.

create it as SFX.

Hey guys, check this out!
Are you searching for a bootable OS for booting from your USB device?

Use BartPE. This program exports all files needed for OS + some programs to your USB, but beware! You need at least a 256MB device.

Hi, guys!

Sorry I've not been replying to anything recently; I caught an infection and was barely concious for a week. (I'm diabetic ~sigh~) So, did I miss anything?

This in theory is a good idea, a portable back up utility, tell it source and destination folders, and it backs up your data.

Wel I tried this just now with just 3.70 mb of files. It launched, I got a progress indicator up, then.... well a LOT of hard drive activity, task manager said the process was still running, 10 mins later I got bored, killed with task manager.
Has anyone else tried this program?
I know flash drives don't exactly set the world on fire with read/write speeds but still... 3.70 mbs isn't a lot of files.

Hi,

I have my portable applications in a "Program Files" folder on my Thumbdrive.

I have shortcuts to these programs in the root directory, but these only work on computers where my thumbdrive has the same drive letter.

Is it possible to make a "relative" path to these applications, so that my Shortcut links will work no matter what the drive letter is? If not, any other tips for quick startup of applications?

Thanks,
chris.

John,

your Portable Apps are absolutely fantastic!!! They helped me so much at my current occupation since I have to travel to the Internet.

Could you think of providing an "All-In-One" Download of ALL the portable Apps in one download - similar to the "Portable Apps Suite", just with all the listed apps?
