Hello,

Is there any feed to to receive information about new programs only? I tried to add RSS feed from this page: https://portableapps.com/news/new but it added all apps...

best regards,

I try to use stable ver.11 and beta 2 of ver.12, but unfortunately for all applications (e.g. Mozilla Thunderbird, Skype or Notepad++) platform gives me information about update but after click Next button message 'All your programs updated' appears but none of application was updated.

Thunderbird and Skype I update manually via download from site and install. Now I have problem with only Notepad++, but I think I'll have this issue with any applications.

Hello all,

Has anyone had recently ,during the last few days , experienced problems with updates of some of their apps ?

While I have add success with few of my updates, a lot of others (15 in total) gave me an error message after trying to connect to the server.

Cheers

I use an external hard drive (NTFS) with a lot of PortableApps between 2 PCs , only these two (A and B).

I used windows 7 64x on both until recently have switched to windows 8 64x in both. Since then I have very serious problems with fundamental apps.
By connecting the disk in "A" coming from "B" gives errors when start an app ("unauthorized acess") or start apps as if it were the first time (rebuilds the configuration files).

In the worst case - Thunderbird - several mailboxes are with 0 KB.

I know portable browsers are supposed to be independent of the ones residing on the host computer but I must be doing something wrong. When I launch a browser from my thumb drive it winds up interacting with the browser on the host computer. By this I mean importing favorites, history or something such as this, also the other way around with the host computer's browser interacting with the portable one. Am I doing something wrong? Is there one portable browser better for this than another?

When Portableapps updates my applications, I would like to see changelogs for apps that have them. Is there any way to do this without looking at each app's webpage one-by-one?

Hello,

Since Monday, many updates(seamonkey and maxthon) detect a bad downloaded file. When I tried with seamonkey downloaded directly from SF, it launch iron! Which is in my portables applications.

Did you have the same trouble?

Sincerely,

Here's what I'm trying to do:

I would like to carry my files, encrypted, on a thumb drive and sync changes to the cloud (I use Google Drive, but am not attached to it, I can switch if necessary).

I've hunted around and can't quite find a solution that works. The files on my thumb drive must be encrypted as they have sensitive client information. And that's where the problem comes in. Since I don't know if I'll have admin rights on a computer I'm limited in what I can use to encrypt files on a thumb drive. The best solution has been to use a secure sandisk usb drive.

I'm in the process of closing and deleting accounts on the net which I don't use any more. I looked for an option to do it myself in account settings but I couldn't find any so could you (moderators/John) please close and delete my account for me?

Sorry to make a thread for something like this but as mentioned I couldn't find any other way to do it or to contact John or another moderator directly/privately.

Thanks in advance
