PortableApps.com Platform

i have laptop and monitor, windows 11, option is extended display and i set monitor as my main display, icon is shown in system tray, but when i click on icon, it opens up on laptop screen, why???

Error on update indicates that the download is not valid. is this a checksum failure?

Hi,

I’m using Windows 10 (64-bit) and have two separate Chrome Portable versions running from different folders:

Both launch fine with their own profiles, but when I open them together, Windows groups them under one single Chrome icon on the taskbar.

Is there a way to make multiple Google Chrome Portable instances appear as separate icons on the Windows taskbar?

Thank you.

When downloading PortableApps.com Platform from page https://portableapps.com/download it still points to PortableApps.com Platform 30.1, not 30.1.1.

This is a rather sad message. I have just attempted to make a donation to Portable Apps via your Finance processing provider:

The 1.9.4 version of XnViewMP Portable which is at https://portableapps.com/apps/graphics_pictures/xnview-mp-portable was uploaded 9/29/20025 and the Legacy version for 32-bit systems has sub-directory issues described below.

The link at https://portableapps.com/news/2025-02-19--xnview-mp-portable-1.8.6-released downloads 1.9.4

Is there a link to 1.8.6 that I can download?

It has been several years since I have done anything with a Computer/Laptop.
The Laptop I have is saying I can't install this while in S Mode.
How do I get around this? And is it a bad thing to do?

During an update installing PortableApps.com installer shows all installer windows underneath the last application window that had focus. i have windows 11, avast antivirus, and windows taskbar window flashing turned off. on portable apps i have app not showing in windows taskbar but in the task tray. this has been happening since the last bunch of updates not sure how far back, i check for updates manually using the app check for update option. other applications do not have this issue.

I have been trying to upgrade to the newest release. The Windows 11 virus scan indicates that the Torrent software embedded in the Portable Platform has malware. As a result the updater download is cancelled. I downloaded the update from Source Forge and Windows virus scan deleted it with a message indicating it was not valid software. I am doing this on my locked down corporate computer. I don't have access to any other Windows machine to try the update.
