General Discussion

I am signed up for the newsletter, but I have never received it. I check my spam folder (both on the gmail site and in Thunderbird) but it never shows up there.

I was wondering if it is because Gmail is deleting it before I can check it there or if it was something else.

I have just uploaded Xenon Portable 1.0 (my file manager) to it's sourceforge project. I was thinking it would be handy to have here on PortableApps.com and in the Suites. It could be run when one presses the Docs, Pics, etc. buttons on the PAM. It has local file associations so they can be taken with you. It includes a program I wrote called 6-Zip that extracts archives using 7-Zip so end users can carry a zip program with them without having to use 7-Zip. Would you like to have it here?

May be this is not the right forum... it could be the off topic but...

if I right click on my Pdrive on WinXP and choose "Format", I have only 2 options... FAT and FAT32... I want to use FAT32 (current is format is FAT), but it only give me 979Mb, can I change that using command lines? I mean, it is supposed that with FAT32 I get more space, and I'm getting less, so how can I change it...

What is the command line (and command line options) to format my usb PDrive to FAT32?

Thanks in advance

Hello,

Can a usb flash drive be write protected if it doesn't come with a switch on it to do so?

Also to avoid writing to the flash drive, I could just drag the folder over to the computer im working on to use the app, then delete that folder and the computer would be as it was before I was there right (aside from possible temporary things, like RAM)?

Hello,

Do the portable apps write or erase from the thumb drive? I'm thinking they don't since it looks like atleast some of them can be run from a CD, but I want to be sure.

Also if its okay to ask, Once a drives write/erase cycles are maxed out, can the thumb drive still be read, and just not written to or erased? Or can it not even be read?

Thanks - Jason

I really like what you're doing here with the development of PortableApps. Keep up the good work. Every few days I have been checking your site and am pleased to see new apps that I find useful being added (most recently Pidgin).

I am guilty of benefitting from your hard work for free for over a year and I think it is time that I do what I should have done a long time ago and give you some money for your efforts. So, be looking for a donation from me in the next couple of days (I'm only a student so it won't be as much as you deserve).

I have discovered a near perfect program that allows you to test out any program in a secure sandboxed area without contaminating your registry or Windows folder. Of course it is well known in geek circles (no offence at all) but perhaps people in this forum will find it essential too.

Does anyone know of a free CD/DVD Image creator. The porpose is to create a image to be used for a virtual CD Drive. I don't really care if it's portable I just need it to be free. Any feed back would be greatly appricated.

hi,

Is there a way to automatically pop-up the Apps menu when I stick the flash drive in?
