Can't run Menu App

Submitted by Zeedok on July 23, 2007 - 11:01pm

I have had problems using my portable apps menu on a work network. It works normally at home and on other work networks.

The menu won't open, and says it is generating an error log. The platform is Windows 2000, and I previously used the same apps on this network without problems.

I suspect the network admin have changed a security setting or something ... and I'm asking for their help, but does anyone have any idea what the problem could be?

Unpackage

Is there a way to take a launcher or installer .exe and just take the files out of it. It would be useful just to see what files you would be putting on your computer and where. Also is there or can a portable version be made?

No tray version of PAM?

I work in an enviroment where I can use the portable apps but the problem is I can only launch one instance of any one program. The problem actually is that they have locked down the systray so that it only shows the time and I can't change it and I guess PAM likes to minimize to the tray which doesn't show its icon and the only way to run it again is to completely log out and relog in.

My basic question is this: is there away to prevent PAM from minimizing to the tray and just staying open?

Hi,
John, just wanted to thank you for a fantastic applicaiton(s) ad wanted to share how I use the Portable apps. It's starting to replace my home computer.

I've installed PortbleApps to my my 2GB SD card in my Palm TX. There is a nifty palm app called Card Reader that will allow the palm to essentially act as a card reader, making the SD card appear as a drive in Windows. (not sure for other OS's)
