General Discussion

I have just installed Portable Apps 11.2 onto a 32GB SD Card (to try out).

I have managed to install one App (CppCheckPortable), but when I try to install another, it just hangs. More than hangs, I cannot shut my PC down. I notice the same thing if I select multiple apps to install, it hangs on the first one every time.

My PC is running Windows 8 64-Bit.

Any ideas someone?

Hi,

I installed new win7 version (from home to ultimate). Before new installation I had My Book connected and automatic backup on.

C and D partition were backed up on the My Book. D partition stayed the same (on computer), with only minor changes in new files. C partition is system, so it's completely changed...and it's not really important to be backed up because I don't keep any docs there.

When we work with new customers quite often we can see a lot of QVD files.
Some of them are quite old and no one is able to tell what is inside and why they were created.
Traditional way was creating script and loading it in to QlikView.
Which is a lot of work if there are a lot QVD files
We just wanted to able to see the content of QVD file.

So we created QEye

Later we released that it will be really great to be able to edit QVD/QVX files.

And this functionality was introduced in QEye version 2:

Whatever you do, do not, I repeat, do not download & use the portable version of qupzilla browser! It is a zombie program that will eat any & all programs, [from the programs main section, or even if you install it in a folder] when it's being uninstalled, leaving you the time consuming task to have to re-install the programs it has "eaten". It can also do an insurmountable amount of damage to your browser & O.S. system. Don't make the mistake that I did with downloading & using this P.A.F. browser program; stay away from it & don't use it!

Ok, so ow I have a32gB USB stick loaded with apps. And those apps are going to save data onto the stick. And oen day I am going to lose the stick ... sad, but true.

How woudl you go about securing the data with TrueCrypt?

Have the apps on a parition outside of TrueCrypt and have an encrypted data parition to which to save data?

But that probably only allows me to save files which I create with the apps, not their configuration files?

Should I perhaps encrypt the entire USB stick (except for a very small parition to hold TrueCrypt) and then place the apps plus data in that?

I want to post in Localization Discussion forum new topic with many links: screenshots, software homepages and others. But get a "trimmed version" without any link...

Hi,

I would be happy if somebody can help me with:

1- If I have two copies of portable 7-zip. I can open two independed process for 7-Zip. As I test it they works properly. Is that 100% valid for all portableapps.com applications?

2- Is there any command parameter to start a portable application with different /Data directory. Example:
"D:\PortableApps\7zipPortable\7zip.exe -profile D:\Data2"

Thank you

hi
awhile back when you did an update of your portable apps you would
just click update and they where downloaded and installed, now
you click on update and they are downloaded and then you have to
manually click every program to install, my last update had 78
new programs and i had to click on every program at least twice,
how can i change this to do it automatically so when i get back
it is all done, i dont have to site doing a heap of clicks
to install
