Some portable apps run fine with standard user accounts like putty. But wincdemu has a uac admin credential popup to allow "this app [from an untrusted publisher] to make changes of your device."

For apps like that, it would be useful to know, have them tagged, and be able to filter by that attribute.

I tried to run some of these apps with the runasinvoker command, but they usually require drivers or something so they can't be ran as a standard user.

I have been having repeated crashes with Explorer++ Portable 1.3.5. I contacted the developer who said "I no longer investigate any issues specific to 1.3.5. If the crashes occur in the latest development build, please send through a crash dump."

The development build is 1.4.0. It is marked as a beta, but is the only version supported. https://explorerplusplus.com/download.

I feel that 1.4.0 should be used as the current portable version as version 1.3.5 has been depreciated.

Thank you.

I have an error that Chrome Portable automatically closes when running by the command cmd: start "" "%cd%\MyFolder\GoogleChromePortable.exe" --profile-directory="Default". How to fix this error? Thanks a lot if you can help

PAF updater is really great for updating all Portable Apps Format one is using ... (I just love it ... Firefox, Thunderbird, LibreOffice, and many other apps, I just use them in PAF ... )
Why not make PAF updater work for of all the apps installed, even those installed on C as non portable apps ?
At least provide a list of all the apps NOT IN PAF installation one has to update ?
Then,
a) Windows system would be updated as everyone knows,
b) PAF apps ... the easiest way to update apps (and thank you really really, but really much for it)

Hi all.

ZoomItPortable_6.0_English_online.paf.exe is outdated. It downloads https://download.sysinternals.com/files/ZoomIt.zip which is currently version 6.01 and not the expected 6.0, and fails, telling that the downloaded file is invalid.

Is there an issue?

Installing version 8.87.0.403 does not work. Download of Skype is "invalid".

Hi,

I am an amateur user of Fastmail (pc web version ) and Thunderbird Portable (on memory stick). I use the latter to export e-mail from two fastmail accounts using 'ImportExportTools NG'.

I am unable to log in on Thunderbird Portable for one user (lost or forgotten password). I have changed the password for this user in Fastmail ('Users/Aliases', 'Edit', 'Change Password'). However, this new password fails when used in Thunderbird Portable.

I am a long-time user of firefox. I am currently running firefox 103.0.1 (64 bit).

Seeking to migrate to the portable apps version of firefix, I am not sure where I should place the userChrome.css data file that I have tweaked to customize a couple of firefix settings (menu bar and button bar heights, tab shading, etc.).

Can you advise me where I should locate that file?
