Domino-Chain portable app icon isn't showing on taskbar... is it supposed to be like this. (Windows 11 64 bit)

I am finding that the VLC Playlist file (.xspf) contains an absolute path which will not work if you use the USB flash drive on a computer where the assigned drive letter is different. I tried several changes to the path and none worked. I searched for this problem and I only found posts from 2008 and no solution. Is there a solution to this problem?

Thanks.

I am a supporter of the Portable Apps Platform. Today I had a really hard time finding the download link for the apps platform because the advertisement spam (download button tricks) is really out of control. If you guys need more money, let me know, but the current ads are unacceptable on the download page. Please let me know if these can be remedied.

I was wondering if there is a way to keep a program from updating or even showing up in the update list? Specifically, I have thunderbird 102 and I don't want to update it to the newer versions. It always shows up in the updater though and I have to uncheck it. Any advise? Thanks

Unfortunately, the VeraCrypt program does not work in the portable version as it should, I tried the primo version from portableapps and the same problem, more information here: https://sourceforge.net/p/veracrypt/tickets/530/

I am also thinking of using my phone as a flash drive to store portable apps. I am aware that Android cannot run Windows apps I am only using the phone to store the files not run them. Is this possible?

I'm not sure this is something that can be done, but is there a way to have apps that require the user to agree, to be the first ones installed when installing multiple apps via PortableApps > Apps > Get More Apps or when including apps to be installed when first installing PortableApps?
I ask because in the last few days I've somehow had the Agree prompt for Google Chrome end up behind the installer progress window twice.
Just now I sat for over 1.5hrs watching the progress window installing Google Chrome as the 6th of 9 programs I was installing.

Is there portable browser for MacOS?

I understand that there was a security problem, I think it was concerning webp, Was this with 102.15.0 0r 102.15.1?

Thanks.

I cannot download and install any apps because I am behind two routers and I cannot find the way to uninstall this portableapps.com Platform. Please help me.
