Simultaneous Multi-PC Operation?

Submitted by jwinter on May 31, 2024 - 11:13pm

Storing portable apps in the cloud is very attractive these days as it is quite easy to login to one's cloud account on any computer and have all my portableapps instantly runable. This is great when remote controlling a PC via TeamViewer, RustDesk, etc. However what happens if one runs the same portable app launcher on both the local and the remote PC simultaneously since they are both sharing the same cloud storage?

just data backup

It would be nice if they have advanced setting that would be included backup settings rules from apps by user.
it will be save storage and time on device and cloud!
my idear is that portable apps able to set owen folder/files to back up setting of any portableapp apps. this would be save as a backup_rule.txt
now you can sync/backup data with portableapps by one-click on device or cloud. also can be included compression with password.
the portableapps are able to filter list clear and export just path list do import into Owen backup-software/cloud service.

Hello,
on old Device, PortableApps will load verry long time by many apps if i start it first time.
it would be nice if they load old scans before update folders for apps and updates. The update rescan should be load silenc.
that would be nice to start apps faster!

Is there a Portableapps for Linux

Submitted by portot on May 29, 2024 - 12:54am

Update: The best solution I've found for this is appimage.org. They have produced an app, appimagetool, which will compress into a single file the contents of a directory structure - much like the portableapps folder structure. The tool includes a process to redirect configuration references/changes (in lieu of the registry in Windows) to a folder named [program-name].home.

Submitted by Cartel on May 18, 2024 - 12:25pm

I'm having issues with chrome portable legacy 109 pinging and getting blocked in my firewall (because I block all ICMP) on every link I click with it. I would like to try version 108 but when I try to install it it says error downloading 404

Is it not possible to get a previous version?

thanks

Notepad++ Launcher has bugs

Submitted by At Libitum on May 13, 2024 - 11:00am

There's a couple of bugs in the launcher that are to put it mildly, annoying as all heck.

When you use the plugin manager to install/remove a plugin and have the "Customize Toolbar" plugin installed. Any customization to the toolbar is always reset.

Likewise if you have the DSpellCheck plugin installed, the libraries are gone afer a relaunch.

After installing/removing a plugin, I have to relaunch Notepad++ two additional times after the initial relaunch to get the Plugins Admin menu option back
