General Discussion

I can't seem to find a way to understand how these folder buttons on the launcher are set to work, or a way in options to configure them to work.

Are there any free portable apps, either on this site or elsewhere, that support editing in Markdown, and can export/copy the Markdown in HTML within the app itself? Live preview is preferred but not essential. Thanks!

First - This may have already been discussed but I tried "Find" and "search" on forums home page and found no search ability.

Can you really put a defragmenter on a portable device?
A badly fragmented drive may take hours to defrag and you might want to remove the portable drive and use it elsewhwere before defrag is finished.

Does the portable app copy the defrag program to a temp directory on the drive to be defragmented before beginning defrag? I've looked at the various doc pages and no indication of this.

Ever since Opera discontinued it's proprietary web engine..
i've been confused as to which browser to use ..
i haven't had to think about this in many years..

Just wanted to say thank you for the multiple browser options you folks have posted..

Really loving IronPortable .. the launcher.ini file configuration is very convenient ..

Hi,

I see that many files is leaving under C:\Users\user-name\AppData\Roaming by portable apps even they close properly.

I know that user-name\AppData\Roaming directory is using for user-data files (it equals of /home/user-name directory on linux).

So if I open an app which is installed locally on machine, it will resume with portable-apps.com user datas?

And out of curiosity... I wanna ask what is the differences between folders:

C:\Users\user-name\AppData\Local
C:\Users\user-name\AppData\LocalLow
C:\Users\user-name\AppData\Roaming
C:\ProgramData

Hi all,

I'm looking for something that will associate the files with the programs on my portableapps devices (only while the platform is running). I think eXpresso 1.3.1 is the latest and greatest but all the links that I can find are dead. I also did hear that file association was going to be integrated with the platform but I can't seem to find any information on whether this has happened or not.

Could anybody point me in the right direction please?

Thanks,
Rochey

hi.

As it stands using the built in download-er:
- Issue 1. I have to click each program individually, (There is no selection of a whole category)
- Issue 2. The auto installer reports Inaccurately when cancelling an installation (On its License Agreement Window): it says:
- "install Complete" rather than "Cancelled".

Issue 3. The built-in download-er seems to vary in speed compared to downloading via web browser.

Alternatively by using the site to download apps:
- Issue 1. I cannot download a bundle of programs at once.

As a suggestion:

hi.

Would it be possible to change the tags used in webpages please?

or would this be detrimental?

Currently it is:
''Outdated Official Portable Applications | PortableApps.com - Portable software for USB, portable and cloud drives''

Which results in firefox suggesting a saveAs file name of:
"Outdated Official Portable Applications _ PortableApps.com - Portable software for USB, portable and cloud drives.htm"

Thanks for your time.
