PortableApps.com Platform

Hi all! I make cool (IMHO) skin for PortableApps Menu. Please make backup of your old folder named PortableAppsMenu to be able to restore original theme.

UPDATE: And new skins for PA.c platform version 2!

Hey,

Just wondering whether anyone happens to be using the recently released version of Stardock's IconPackager? I was one of the many people who found IconPackager was messing up the icons in the PortableApps menu, at least in Vista x64, so I stopped using it (PortableApps clearly being the more useful of the two!). Any idea whether this is resolved in the latest version?

Thanks!

How do I make Smithtech portable menu my default menu on startupin portableapps

Hey, folks. I've searched and searched to no avail, so I thought I'd ask here. I would like to make the portable apps menu taller, so more application icons show without scrolling. Is the size fixed, or could I add some lines to the PortableAppsMenu.ini file to accomplish this.

Thanks for your time!

I have been using Portable Apps on a flash drive for some time. I had problems with my laptop, and dreaded going through the whole setup process for so many programs again. Then I thought, "Hey, I wonder if I can use Portable Apps on all of my PCs?"

My thinking is that all I would have to do to duplicate my programs and data on my different machines is to copy my flash drive contents to/from those drives. (I realize this probably sounds stupid to some of you, but that is why I am doing the asking rather than the answering!)

Hi

Could someone please add info on standard folders (Documents, Music, Pictures, Videos...) being read-only to the FAQ?

Hi, I am using Mod R34.
I was wondering if it is possible to use a personal picture with this mod.
I have used several themes and every time I hover my mouse over the top right I don't get the box to display the picture like the official version does.

Thanks in advance,
Brian.

Can I use a download manager to download openoffice? The server must support 'resume'. Does anyone know if the server supports this facility.

Thanks

Hi,

Can openoffice portable be run effectively from a CD-R.

I intend to download onto a flashdrive from a friend's faster (broadband) machine, then to install to a CD-R.

If CD-R media are not suitable, please can you suggest a CD media that would be more suitable.

Thanks

Ps. Can we change our passwords to something of our choice?

I've just downloaded and installed the suite. Now I find that every app is outdated so I am back and d/l every app and doing another install. I have bandwidth caps unfortunately. This has cost bandwidth (113Mb for suite plus 132Mb for updated apps). The suite should save time, not add to it.

Can the suite be updated to include the latest version of each app?
