Submitted by musselasse on February 9, 2011 - 8:52am

I would like to have a function in PortableApps, that starts those program that I want to use from start, without having to start each of them, like the map Autostart in Windows. I would like to be able to choose them like I chose Favorites in the PortableApps menue.

And keep up the good work!!! /MVH Lars

Hi John,

Thanks for your hard work with packaging gnucash. Current version available here is 2.4.0. 2.4.2 is out and developers say that they fixed major bugs and that 2.4.1 should not be used which leads me to think that 2.4.0 may contain bugs as well. Would you kindly add version 2.4.2 to your list of todos?

Much appreciated

I know, there have already been attempts to make it portable, but if i find a version it´s either an old one or doesn´t work properly.

Security lock for portable app platform

Submitted by jegarner on February 8, 2011 - 9:55am

Is there a way to provide some sort of security lock for the Portable App Platform when I'm away from the computer. I have a feeling that the net administrators randomly log into workstations where I'm employed. I do use TrueCrypt for ALL of my files, but am the paranoid type who can't get enough protection.

If this is not possible, I will just dismount the TC volumn as I have been doing.
