Is there a program for making videos with webcam?

How can I check if an application is portable or not?

I have a friend who owns a restaurant and he offers an astounding number of sushi and sashimi dishes. It's often difficult, with so many offerings, for a server to know the ingredients of each offering and it's also difficult for the customer when he or she wants to look at and determine which offering to choose.

As mentioned here, I have on occasion seen the site load with no font displayed.

This issue has only been observed since the infrastructure upgrade, and I have seen it 6 or 7 times now on two different computers, both running Chrome 35 (non-portable) on Windows 7 x64.

I changed some settings around in an app and I wanted to revert back to its stock state, I couldn't find any features within the app to let me do so. So I figured a simple uninstall then re-install should handle that, but to my surprise the settings were the same, as if once it was uninstalled the older settings are retained somewhere? Any clue on how to get an app that was once installed to its factory state with no modifications. App in question is TAudioConverter.

Hi, I'm looking for an older version of Chrome Portable (probably version 31 or 32), from before the turned of the ability to add NPAPI extensions from 3rd party web sites. Need the full download, not the online version (*_online.paf.exe) since that doesn't seem to be able to download the needed files.

Can anyone hook me up or provide a link to download the full executable?

Hi. I would like to use PortableApps at work, but there are some apps out there, that have a license restriction for personal/home use only. Is there some way to know if it is legal to use that app, except of rechecking every app's license?

Our PortableApps.com Drupal install has now been moved to a new server setup. This is why the site was set to maintenance mode for a few minutes a little over an hour ago and why it's been read-only for the past hour and a half. Everything should be up and running again, though search results will take a while to repopulate. I wanted to see if anyone is having any other issues now that it has been moved.

Seems to be a virtual OS, based on win32, might have origins in OS2 or 4-5 other winclones types.

How secure is it?

Is it running with 65000 open ports ?
Is it like wine - not a full OS but an emulator?
Perhaps it is only running when an app is running?
Is it an OS that a hacker can get into?
Is it an OS that a hacker can requst information on its type so as to identify it and know what to do?

PortableApps Chrome won't update, directly through the browser: I get "Update failed (error: 1)". And the via the PortableApps platform won't find the outdated Chrome and prompt for the update.

Suggestions?

The only thing that has worked is downloading the .paf.exe file and manually updating each Chrome in place. I don't have this issue with any other portable apps...
