General Discussion

Hello everyone, this is my first post on this website. I've been using PortableApps for a week or two, and am incredibly pleased with its functionality.

However- I cannot for the life of me find out how to get the AutoRun to work. I'm not the most technical person, and I see the file on my drive (it has Setup Information underneath the main title). Can anybody help me get this feature to work?

I have a Sandisk Cruzer Micro 2GB, if that helps at all or is necessary.

Thanks.

Hello. I wish to set 2 questions. 1 - how to hide the some .exe files of foreign progr.that them were not visiblevisible in the list of the started program? 2 - how to rename already added items? Where are such functions in the program or how it is soon possible to expect their occurrence? Excuse for my English)

Where can I submit already portable apps I have found? In the Request Apps Forum? What about an Apps Submission Forum for these apps. I don't want to gunk up the Request Forum with submissions of these apps. But for now.....

With the apps listed below you can just unzip & put the folder in the PortableApps folder where the rest of your apps are installed. If you run across any apps out there that don't unpack into a folder you can try renaming it to "name".paf & opening it in the PortableApps.com installer located under options on the Portable Apps Platform.....ENJOY!

Hello...My Portable Apps Platform was working great just before my back up of my data but now it won't launch. The dialog box pops up saying it can't find PortableAppsMenu.exe. I have even attempted to re-install the Platform from new DLs including beta versions but get like the one mentioned above about the PortableAppsMenu.exe. I know where to put it if I had it if some one could help me out that would be great. Everything else installs just fine I just can't run the platform....Peace.....What

Sorry if my topic is a little misleading. I know John makes money off of google adds as well as a google search engine here. Personally I try to use this as much as I can to support the site. However a lot of the time it's just not convienient and I just automatically go up to the little thing in my top right corner as I'm sure many people do. Is it possible to create a button for that search bar? Something simmilar to how we have the search for the forums is it possible to create one for our own google search?

I made the mistake of installing the free version of Mojopac on the flash drive that I use for PA. Didn't like it and removed the Mojopac files, but this didn't get rid of it completely.

I changed the volume label back, but "MojoPac" still shows beside the drive letter at the bottom of the PA launcher, and under MyComputer, but not on the DOS prompt. I reinstalled the PA suite over the old one but that didn't help.

We all know the standard plain pendrives or USB-HDD's. Long time I wasn't aware that there are other useful features are available and I think other people to. This thread is to show and to discuss pendrives and USB-HDD's with advanced "unusually" features.

I have checked to see if there is anything on this topic and if I missed it mea culpa
Having bought an Asus eeepc 701 I lamented he loss of my Portable Apps, however I have found that if 'Wine' is installed on the host Linux then P.A. will launch via 'Wine' and appear in the bottom right of screen as normal.
As this is already running under 'Wine' programs on the P.A.menu will launch in the same way as they do on Windows although with a little bit of screen flashing and chundering.

Just wanted to let you know I'm back after being offline for a few days. I've been under the weather pretty bad. I'm not at 100% yet but I'm good enough to get some things done. Releases continue this afternoon.
