[solved] Link from PA platform to website

Submitted by SUNot on April 25, 2021 - 4:46pm

Hi John,

I keep being tempted clicking the PortableApps.com logo and text on the lower left of the platform window when I want to go to the website.

Only to find it is not active or linked. What a waste of screen real estate!

Of course I have other means with Help - Support if I feel too lazy to just type it into my browser.

Maybe something to consider for a quiet hour.

Thanks!

[Fixed] Chrome installation issue v. 89.0.4389.114

Submitted by Kob on April 5, 2021 - 12:54pm

Hello,

Trying to update my portable Chrome browser, as I did many times before - running GoogleChromePortable_89.0.4389.114_online.paf.exe and directing it to install into my main Chrome directory.
However, now the exe stub gets stuck right at the start of the download phase, refusing to draw in and download anything. It just displays "connecting...", and after a while shows an error message (ERROR: SendRequest Error). Same error after some more attempts.
