Responsibility

Submitted by Woozle on December 11, 2020 - 11:46am

Hello John / Hello Portable Apps Team,

why is Thunderbird not updated?
There has been 78.5.1 with a "high priority" fix for more than a week!

Please don't get me wrong, this is a friendly message, but also clear criticism.
You must update the apps that are in the frontline in terms of security as soon
as possible, you have a responsibility.

At the moment everything is different in the world, but if one fails,
then you need a plan B! (you always need a plan B)

Email Program Question

Submitted by robertcampbell on November 27, 2020 - 2:57am

So I have multiple email accounts both free ones like Gmail and Outlook but also ones I use with the domains I own. Currently I use Microsoft Outlook on my PC to manage them all.

My question is ........... Is there a Microsoft Outlook Portable App or is there a similar app that will allow Me to do the same thing via portable? I want to be able to use anyones computer with my USB drive and open this app and sync, send, receive emails from my various accounts using this app like I would be able to do via Outlook but using a portable App.

FireFox

Submitted by astonhollywood on November 21, 2020 - 12:13pm

So I have been a longtime user of Portable app. I use mainly Portable FireFox and love how you can just duplicate and make as many FireFox as you want....

I have been facing this issue for quite sometime now and I just need an explanation of it if it's possible. I noticed that even though my main FireFox is uptodate but the portable ones always ask to be updated. why is that? do we need to manually update them and do we still need to keep the main firefox up to date?

Love the app by the way. Big Fan.

Apps download but installer does not do anything.

Submitted by GustavoPR on November 16, 2020 - 7:53am

I'd downloaded a lot of apps throughout the years. Lately, I'd downloaded the latest version of the following apps but after downloading the installer does not run (even trying as Run As Administrator):
1. WiseDataRecovery
2. WiseDiskCleaner
3. WiseRegistryCleaner
4. SUMoPortable (today's version)

I'm on Windows 10 Pro 17.09

Thank you very much !!!!

Video downloader utility?

Submitted by michele.bartole... on November 11, 2020 - 10:47am

Dear Forumers,

I'm searching for an effective and complete video downloader, able to grab from YouTube, Vimeo, Dilymotion etc.

I downloaded DamnVid Portable, but it seems abandoned because I can't update the modules and it doesn't work. It's a pity, because I could add URLs to the downloading list directly from the clipboard, and it was minimal in graphics. Do you know how to fix DamnVid?
