General Discussion

Sorry If everybody already knows about this but I have only just found out. Look at this : http://www.mojopac.com/portal/content/products/index.jsp

i think this is the third time i have asked this question; sorry if you have read this before. i have installed the patch, and have noticed that the excutable located in the root directory still has a version of 1.0. if i access the program will i be taking advantage of the patch or do i need to copy the excutable from H:\PortableApps\PortableAppsMenu and paste it in the root directory to take advantage of the patch.

Because Flash Drives have a limited numbers of write/delete I was wondering if the Portable Apps provided by PAM use a RAM Drive to use as temporary HDD storage instead the flash drive itself.

Does anyone know a good way to implement it?

Hmm I just realised this might not be possible as a ramdisk would rely on an system file to be installed :/

I use my portable apps flash drive on several different computers and I use it mainly for Thunderbird email so I can have a full record of all emails I send whether they are while working from home or the office. I run into a problem with my signature though. I have placed my signature on my flash drive and told Thunderbird where to look for it but a different drive letter gets assigned to the flash drive on my office computer (E:) than my home PC (F:). Is there a way to permanently assign a drive letter to my flash drive??

So I had my usb plugged in my computer when it started, and it got checked, like the c drive normally does, and it said the "volume is dirty". It works fine, but I wonder if I should be doing a defrag or disk cleanup on it? I know most folks say I don't need to do a defrag, as that just adds unneccesary wear to flash drive. Any other things one can do to clean it up or tidy the files?

Or by being a flash usb, it doesn't really need it?

Is it possible to install any standard application as a PortableApps and if so is there a tutorial avaliable?

Is it possible when you want to upgrade to a larger drive to just copy across the info on your current drive onto the new one or do you have to install everything again?

I am planning to install the PortableApps Suite and I read the "Installing PortableApps Suite" and it said it is best to install it right to the root directory of your portable drive (X:\ where X is the drive letter).

My question is... where is the root directory of my portable drive?? Do I just chick on to the letter to where portable drive is at..is that the root directory??

When I saw dosbox I had to wonder, what for?

Well now I know! Check out this old DOS game, it's a classic! It plays better with dosbox than it did on my old computer when I paid good money for it.
