Hello,

I intalled the application on my one gig usb drive. (Currently using windows 2000 advanced server)
I checked Device Manager and I indeed do have enhanced usb 2.0 support. (intel usb2 enhanced host controller)

I click on the StartPortableApps.exe (using usb drive E:) and nothing happens.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

I have a few 2 portable apps that require other exes in order to run. These programs are Portable Cleaner and PowerDefragmenter GUI with Contig. I would like to hide the CCleaner exe and only show the Portable CCleaner exe. I also want to hide the Contig file from showing up on the Portable Apps menu. Is there anyway to fix this? I would also like to know if it is possible to change the name of the app in the menu. This is beause PowerDefragmenter's desription calls it Setup Fatory 6.0 Runtime. I would like to change that to PowerDefragmenter.

It is an extension called Firefly it adds a filemanager to Firefox Portable (much like Konqueror). You can open files with other portable software!!! Like when I tried to open a Presentation with OpenOffice Impress Portable via Firefly it worked, also this works with opening Word Docs and other doc formats with OpenOffice Writer Portable (not sure about AbiWord Portable though).

But here is the link to this wonderful extension! https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/3076/

I have just purchased a 2GB U3 drive and wiped it clean. I installed the portable apps program and so far I love it! I'm a bit confused though when it comes to installing programs from EXE files. I installed Keepass and also AdAware, but when I open up my flash drive and go into Portable Apps, I see that there are other types of programs that link to the uninstallers, etc. Is there a way I can remove these from my menu? I'm not sure if I'm installing them properly or not, but any help on this would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

I am not as technically adept as most of the people posting here. The last time I actually programmed anything was when Z-80s and 6502s were considered state of the art. So, be patient with my questions. When I stick a U3 USB drive into a computer, the U3 Menu automatically loads and is in the bar at the bottom of my screen. When I stick in my USB with PortableApps in my computer, the icon for USB changes, but the menu does not automatically load. Is this due to some setting on my computer for how it processes the autorun.inf file? I thought that the autorun.inf file that is in the PortableApps installation would automatically start the menu.

I don't suppose since we are getting hosted Developer pages, we might get some moderators on the forums *hint hint*

Will firefox portable decrease the life of your usb stick? Since web browsers freq write to the disk to store temporary web files and USB sticks have a limited times it can be written to.

I'm looking for a simple way of synchronizing bookmarks from Firefox installed on PC and from portable one. I googled it and all these fancy programs came up where you can make bookmarks accessible via FTP etc. All I want is just with one click make the bookmarks on portable and normal Firefox be the same.

Don't you think, that the server2go should be listed on this page, do you?

Best regards...
