U3 really doesn't work! At first I tried to use my dad's, but then it said it doesn't work on Vista! Then I got a newer one for my birthday, and OpenOffice for U3 (Which by the way they got from John T. Halley) said soffice.exe wasn't working! I'm removing it at this very moment.

What do you think about portable applications update manager? It would give options to update your usb software, check current and latest version. I think this is good idea.

Basically, is there a way to install DSL onto a flash drive so that you can use it as a bootable disc in addition to being able to navigate to the .bat file and running it from there?

running windows mobile ?

(These suggestion(s) might have already been discussed before.)

I realize this can effectively be done by using the any of the existing suites and then installing whatever is missing, but:
How about creating a "full"/"ultra" suite, which includes all of the PortableApps?
This might be fast and convenient for those who have portable drives with greater storage than 512 MiB.

Hello all.

I'm new to Portable Apps and have just come across some nice themes that people have created.

How do I use them?

Sorry if this is blatantly obvious, but I can't figure it out.

Cheers.

    
I've developed a small tool to make portable application with delphi program language,now put it here with all source.
    
You can extract the TestPortable dir to your usb disk PortableApps dir (if you installed PortbleApps,you will find it easily),now restart your StartPortableApps.exe,you will find the new app in your PortableApps menu.
    

Is there a way to clear the tracker so that it no longer says there are new messages? I don't read every thread, so it would be nice to be able to clear the tracker to make it easier to find posts I haven't read.

Maybe clear the tracker when you log off, so that it only tells of the posts made since you were last logged into for the forum, or provide a button to clear the tracker, so you can easily see new posts when you refresh.

Thanks,

Don

I have half my USB drive as a normal FAT32 partition and the other half as a TrueCrypt partition. When I have the TC partition mounted and leave the computer on at night (for example) I almost always wake up to a blue screen. This seems to happen more frequently when I leave Portable Firefox running (it's on the TC partition), though it happens in other circumstances, too.

Any idea what's going on here?
