General Discussion

Don't know if anyone else has noticed, but every game I have purchased from gog.com is compatible with portable apps. Anyone else notice this?

Does someone know a flash drive, suitable for Portable Apps, which does tell a Windows host not to be "removable media" but rather a hard drive?

Background:
I am looking for a stick which may contain more than one partition to be seen on a Windows system. One of these partitions would contain a bootable LINUX (with WINE, of course), another one the casper-rw if needed, a third one Portable Apps (useable under Windows or LINUX/WINE), and even a fourth partition might be of interest to separate files for exchange purposes.

Hi Everyone,

I'm new to this forum. I have a question regarding iphone apps. Is there a app one can download onto someone else s phone or their phone and read a persons text messages and get transcripts of that persons phone calls?

Thanks

Hi,

If we had a portable Wine we can also put it on our USB drives and we could use our portableapps with Linux distros which does not have Wine installed.

I know it is not exactly the same thing but TeamViewer has it's own official portable version which works with Wine on all Linux distros perfect: http://www.teamviewer.com/en/download/index.aspx ( Select --> "Linux" and than "executable files, no installation required" )

Would be great also if will create a portable Wine for MacOS.

hi all
i got a question for the developers.
i've downloaded several different ports of the same program, which have been ported by different people. so, same program, different porters, alas different ports.
now, they all halt on initiate.
remembering that this ported program used to work a couple of months ago (any port i downloaded) and now none of any diferent ports work, what can i do to understand where the problem lies? touphy

Hi,

It is possible to set the "check updates" option for all portable applications? I mean we use portableappsPlatform's Updater. We don't need the applications to check themselves.

Thank you!

Hi,

I would like to know how to install a portable app silently please.

ExecWait `"$PLUGINSDIR\$strCurrentAppDownloadFile" /DESTINATION="$strPortableAppsPath\" /AUTOCLOSE=true /HIDEINSTALLER=true /SILENT=true`

I have not succeeded in doing what the updater does based on the above code from the latest publicly available source.

Why?

Is this part of an attempt to prevent user from duplicating such behavior?

hi all

cheers

As the subject states, I'd like to post an alpha test of PythonPortable, but it's not yet in PAF 3.0 format. Actually, I think it is PAF 0.98. Is this allowed, if the post states this, and my intention is to make it fully PAF 3.0 compliant?

I used the launcher from TaffinFoxcroft, from his 2.6 Dev Test 1 package. I made some changes to the appinfo.ini, and added some additional icons, to show up in the menu. I still have a lot of work to do yet, but wanted some user input before I do anything radical.

Hi, I use Windows 7 and Ubuntu. A lot of the portable apps I'm using are cross-platform: Firefox, Thunderbird, VLC, Pidgin, Inkscape, Gnumeric and more. I would like to plug in my USB drive whether I'm running Windows or Linux, and use my apps on either.

Is there a way to do this? Would I have to have portable Linux and Windows versions side-by-side on the drive, with both accessing the same configuration files? I would really like to know how to do this. Thanks.
