General Discussion

When updating more than one app, I notice the updater initially downloads all the apps before installing them. This is fine if you have a very limited number of apps, but I found it quite annoying sitting through a long wait (especially so when the download speed dropped to 30 kb).

Hence, I have a solution. Since it takes longer to download than to install an app, why not use that time to install the prior downloaded app (eg. install the first app while the second app is being downloaded)?

Is it possible that a system restore reverted some of the recently updated PortableApps? I restored from a restore point made on Sept. 21 and apps that I had already updated within the last week including Stellarium, CintaNotes, RawTherapee, Stinger, Free Download Manager, and Smart Defrag all needed re-updated after it got restored.

I have them on the hard drive

I downloaded and installed both Jportable launcher and Portable java.
When I open Jportable launcher it pops up to choose a jar file but Jar file itself does not open up (MPXJ.JAR file).
Could anyone please help me to open up this MPXJ.Jar file. (I have no administration privilege)
Thanks in advance!

Yes, I found the now-closed and long-running thread about this error message. My issue is slightly different, or perhaps here is new information.

My ongoing problem is with System Explorer. I completely deleted the entire System Explorer folder and replaced it with a fresh install. I'm still getting the error!

I had thought the program startup status would have been set or flagged somewhere in the app data or ini... BUT this seems to suggest that the error is held in the registry instead (which makes me wonder about portability, but that's not at issue here).

Hello,

Just as I was browsing using the latest Firefox Portable, a new Tab opened up with this page:

Update to Smart Defrag V2.9.0- Now Easier, Faster and More Accurate!

(I have taken a screenshot of it in case it disappears)

First of all - I do have SmartDefragPortable, but haven't used it in ages, definitely haven't launched it today - absolutely, positively certain of it!

So how in the world does a portable app, that hasn't been opened (in ages!) force my browser to open up a page?

Hi,

(FYI)I've been testing Portable Apps 12 Beta 2 for quite some time on Windows 8 64 with great success. But one feature I'd like to see in the next release is a way to "lock" the Portable Apps window open. Example:
