Request Apps Guidelines

Submitted by wsm23 on December 31, 2006 - 9:59am

Premise:
Posters frequently ask for a portable version of a certain software. Usually this is a common type of software that leaves settings or files in some part of the local PC if it is not modified.

John or one of the many frequent visitors to the forums might possibly see if that software can be modified and made portable or not.

Some guidelines:

PSPBrew

There is a very useful and rather old PSP homebrew app I use all the time to make custom games and apps for my PSP. Here is its download page: https://www.gamebrew.org/wiki/PSPBrew
It still works in Windows 11 but only if you install it on Windows, which is a big drawback for me as I have all my videogame-related apps on an external hard drive, and I plug it in when I need them.

Request for portable app: HopToDesk

Submitted by RAMChYLD on November 11, 2025 - 9:19pm

HopToDesk is an open source remote desk system similar to AnyDesk and TeamViewer. However because it's FOSS, it does not nag or impede users who it thinks are using it in a commercial capacity and did not buy a license (AnyDesk has countless times put a 999 second wait on me with a nag screen just because it decided I'm using it commercially, and TeamViewer outright accuses me of using it commercially and blocks me from connecting and demand I pay for a license). There's even an option to set up your own C&C server if you're extremely security conscious.

can cherry-studio portable?

Hello,
I believe this is indeed a new topic (I've done the due diligence of searching the forum and the web).

This is the app I'd like to request: https://github.com/CherryHQ/cherry-studio

Is it possible to create a portable version of this?
(It should be noted that the official page provides a portable version, but actual testing shows that this portable version is fake.I found that a lot of software-related files were still written to the C drive. My software itself was on the D drive.)
