General Discussion

Eraser Portable's web page has a bad "Details" link; it goes to MPlayer Portable's details rather than to Eraser's. I didn't see a forum for Eraser yet, so I took a guess this was the best place to post. John, thanks for all the work you do.

I found this... it can be interesting to have something like this (multilingual, the original is in German) to be used at home/office...

What do you think?

What would be the easiest way to produce a delay in a .bat file? such as waiting for ten seconds then continuing or something like that? I'd prefer if there was a simple way to set how long you wait...

Just wondering if I'm doing something wrong or if it's just not set up for it.

When I try to run, say, GIMP_Portable_2.2.17.paf.exe and put in .\GIMPPortable for the install path it's telling me that that is an invalid path. Wouldn't it be nice to be able to use relative paths for the installers? I know I'd prefer it that way.

First off, i've been lurking around here for a while, and i gottasay i love the portableapps suite(although it has made me get 2 bigger thumb drives now :))

anyway, i thought i'd give a skin of my own a shot and the first results can be found

Lightning

Sub Zero

and

Abstract

I use alot of the portables on a thumbdrive but don't like to keep up when one updates. Is it possible to get on mailing lists for when products update?

Can Advanced WindowsCare Personal be installed into its own folder in the PortableApps directory on my USB drive and be made portable this way?

Okay...

No ASCII art. That should not be a problem...

BUT ... I once requested for an Update Forum Topic. (thanks for the soon reply Ryan or was it Rob...dont remember...)

I think I lead to some misunderstanding. Sorry maybe i do again. The thing is actually simple.

IF there is a new version of a program THEN some people test it. (registry, etc.) and tell the rest of the people if a NEW version of the LAUNCHER is needed or not!

Obviously, you probably don't want to put your thumb drive in a computer that is very likely to be compromised, nor do you want to be accessing anything too sensitive unless you are pretty sure about the computer.

So odd question here, am I missing something or is there not a way to change the sort order in the forums, it would be really nice (especially in longer topics) to be able to sort purely by date rather than in the reply tree format, a post was added 1.x hours ago, but try finding it?
