Recently the Updater hangs (Not Responding) after downloading during the installing phase. What's up with this?

See example: http://youtu.be/HD5ocS60OP8

trying to update through the platform, the latest Google Chrome Beta gets a 404 error. It seems to be after 28.0.1500.51 & it should be .52, based on the direct download link from the Chrome Portable app page. Please fix - thanks!

How can I make that the Suite starts up when I plug in the usb-stick?

I'm surprised this hasn't been brought up before. I was updating apps. I knew it would take awhile so I started the update of twelve or so apps from the update option in the Portable Apps Platform menu.

Have you ever used Ninite? You check a dozen apps and everything installs in the background and a while later it tells you it's done? Portable Apps doesn't work like that. Every single program interrogates you. Where do you want to install? Do you agree to the terms? What is your dog's maiden name?

There is a "fork" of the portable apps platform called geek.menu (on sourceforge). I used it for some time now, but it is not so actively developted like here.

It has some features really nice to have.

1. simple eject command (if I want a automatic incremental backup of the dokuments e.g.)
2. integration of TrueCrypt (with seperate behavior on "unknown" computers)
- automount TC volume
- able to show owner info
- run different menus

other features are already integrated but differently.

Hi all,
Quick question please,

Will the new version of PA installer allow the saving of the paf.exe files to another folder of users choice?

So when you checked for updates and any were found, it would give you the option to save to a folder of your choice the ...paf.exe file.

This would be a benefit to have the 'source' paf.exe file saved so if you wanted to install on more than one pc or drive, you only had to download once.

thank you very much!

Hi everybody.

I'm trying to create installer with multiple (two) files to download. For example binary (one URL) and source (second URL), or both 32-bit and 64-bit versions together (two separate URLs).

Two. Two would be enough. Multiple - it is too much

Is it possible to achieve the goals using existing scripts?
Any hint would be appreciated.

Best regards and thank you.

Hi guys,

on my PortableApps 11.2 platform I am facing a strange probleme I didnt have on the older versions.

After opening the applications for the first time (apps like Opera, Notepad++ or SuperPutty), when I click the "|" (pipe) button, the menu of POrtableApps is brought in the foreground. I have to close it, and come back to the app I was before. I was looking for the shortcuts leading the pipe to the PA menu, but I found nothing...

Is it a known bug ?

cheers,
Michal
