I can't seem to get nsis.properties to do much in Scite. All the other languages work fine except this one. It's not showing in my languages menu and doesn't seem to affect the display of *.nsi files at all.

Strangely, Sc1 seems to load it's internal copy of nsis.properties, but won't use the copy in my Scite folder. i.e. I can't edit how it's displaying NSIS files.

Any ideas?

This is a little project I've been working on for a while now. I've spent more time trying to get permission to redistribute certain programs than actually finding and testing suitable programs, unfortunately.

"PC First Aid Kit" is a collection of freeware capable of being run from USB, geared towards diagnostics and investigating/resolving PC problems ranging from malware/virus infections to emergency alternatives to common programs. This is the first release candidate. The final release of v1.0 will be when I get a website for it up and running, and finish tweaking the kit. You guys are the first to see this kit and I'd appreciate any feedback and suggestions. Keep in mind that any programs you want to suggest must be freeware and able to run from USB. Open source is preferred but not critical.

Okay, today I decided to do a search in my registry for traces of a program, and I found one in the "ARPCache" key; can this, technically, still be considered a registry key entry? In other words, not portable?

I use ppf. One day it stop useing my themes and extensions.i reinstall ppf, day later. Did it again. Can someone tell me what happen?

From their license:

"You must not distribute the files resulting of an installation."

OK, what about if I want to make my portable apps solution, which would be FREELY availavle to tohers, just preinstalled, that it works from scratch?

This software does not allow this. Is there any other, better solution?

Just wanted everyone to know, I will be away for a few days. My new daughter decided she wants to enter this world alot sooner than she was supposed to so I will be with my wife in the hospital.

If there are any problems with the Registry Rapper, please post it in the beta forums. Other than that, I will talk with you all in a little bit.

Thanks,

Hi everybody,
It's been nearly one year since I use portable apps.
I use them on windows and Linux(Wine) everyday.
But I miss quite a lot using them on OSX, so I've been very happy when I discovered

, but, a little bit disappointed.
Disappointed because I need to have the .exe(win) and the .app(osx) sharing the same profile folder.
And I really don't know how to do this.
Can anyone help?

Thanks everybody,

Nicolas.

Portable Apps remind me of how well I got along before MS forced the Windows Registry on us. And how much better I'm going to get along as I slowly migrate to Registry-free apps where possible.

So my question is: When would we ever want to use a standard app on a fixed drive if there is a Registry-free version available?

the site is whole in polish, they are developing small and very optimized usenet news+ e-mail client that can run on a very old computer

as they say this thing will be released soon, and will be freeware

I just started actually looking at the launcher code with SciTE, and it seems that the way you set it up, you only have to edit a few lines to change what program it launches. You still have to resolve paths and things, but the way it is set up is genius!
