General Discussion

This as always been a problem. Someone creates an account and creates a thread saying: "Gimme this. How do I do that?".

This is a very discussed topic, meanwhile, nobody has come to a solution about this. I think we should create a definitive solution, not just for the Request Apps Forum, but for other Forums too.

We should reduce the amount of commonly repeated threads significantly!

Okay first of all I am a n00b so try not to get frustrated with me. I'm trying to install the Suite Standard Edition on my 2GB Dane-Elec USB drive. The executable file opens and the program runs. I select the drive and click install and the progress windows pops up. After ten minutes there is still no progress.

Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong?
Thanks in advance everyone!

hey Steve, what ever happened to Lapwing it was getting somewhere good and then boom it's dead :(, anyways if your not interested in restarting do you mind if I take the sources and try and continue the project for you

Hidden in windows explorer are those little desktop.ini files. You edit them to make the folders look nice, and they don't work if you edit them at all. Does anyone have any idea how to make it so and so that it uses relative paths?

I just found this program on Lifehacker. It's called USB Disk Ejector, it's just like the Windows eject function, but you can keep it open, it just takes pushing enter to eject your drive.

And fantasticly, you can run this from the drive you're ejecting and it'll still work.

It's only freeware, but it's handy, here's the link.

The German JonDoNym anonymizer service has packed its anonymizing proxy into a portable app menu compatible paf.exe -- maybe you want to list this here, too.

Please Help... I had just installed Suite on my 320gb harddrive and now all the previous information is not reachable. everytime i open the drive it opens up the portable application suite showing music, documents, videos, but nothing is in there...what should i do i had a lot of important info and i need help retreving those files...

I don't mind having to manually download and install or update applications. But, being a user, I don't visit PortableApps.com daily (or even weekly). When I do stop by the home page, the "What's New" list is updated with the latest version numbers shown. Only problem is I don't know what versions I currently have.

hello,
i would like to add a brower that i made in to portable apps.
where can i start?
how can i add my own apps so that i can take it with me all the time and use anywhere ?

thank you for your attention.

Yeah, I just saw this on LifeHacker and had to pass it on.
