Dear Friends,
I'm a new portable apps user. I've installed some portable apps from other vendors. Some of the directories in portable apps directory contains more than one .exe files. One of them is the program it self the others are helping programs but all the exe's appears in the srat menu of portable apps.
Is there way to select or deselect the items in start menu.

Some time ago someone asked about Mind Mapping software for Portable Apps. Apologies for not continuing the thread, but I couldn't find it!
Well, I have been using Personal Brain for some years and today successfully installed onto my usb stick and ran it on my thoroughly locked down company PC. I honestly don't know if it qualifies as a Portable App or as a "just works", but it seems to do the biz. It launches from the PAM and allows me to choose where to keep its files.

Somebody know if it's posible to install the Gumbound that is a game ?

can some of you tell me if its posible to install.

Thank a lot.

My super dupa NOT Corsair flash cruiser 8gb has just died, it will not read at all, does anyone know of any way of rescuing thre data, i do have a back up from a few days ago, so not really too bad just annoyed that it has died and is only 4 months old

I need help.

At home, I do not have an Internet connection. At home, I have two computers, one with Ubuntu and one with Vista.

I previously had my portable apps on a 1 GB flash drive. I recently bought a 4 GB Cruzer Micro.

It has U3 on it, but because I had Vista and Ubuntu at home, I didn't realize it.

I transfered all of my portable apps onto this flash drive.

Now I am at school and the only thing that shows up on explorer is a U3 cd drive, which doesn't work.

How can I reclaim my flash drive?

the portable apps menu to work with shortcuts and .bat files?

I want to use the menu at work but there are some apps that are on the network so we only have shortcuts or .bat files linking to them. I have tried to play around the get them to work but no luck. Anyone have any ideas?

Today it occurred for the second time so I thought I'd mention it.
After closing Gimp, my Firewall said PAM wanted to contact 224.0.0.22.

Anyone had the same???Ideas???Hints???

Notepad2 2.0.15 was just released. It now stores information in an INI file.

Should be very portable now!

I searched and couldn't find this noted.

I just tried installing all the WINE on Linux supported Apps, and they all installed VERY fast INSIDE VIRTUAL PC.

OpenOffice.org installed in about a minute on my Ubuntu 6.10 Virtual PC Machine.

I have PC Tools Firewall Plus installed and it won't allow me to access the internet using Firefox Portable or to update ClamWin. I can turn the firewall off and everything works fine, and everything works fine on my PC at my job. I'm sure it's a setting in Firewall Plus I need to correct. Does anyone know what settings within the firewall I need to adjust? I get no logs in the firewall and it doesn't give me any popups asking if I want to allow or disallow anything when I try and update ClamWin or use Firefox Portable. Thanks.
