PortableApps.com Platform

If I open PA by hitting ctrl+alt+space and then typing "th" to highlight Thunderbird, it sometimes produces a chinese karacter in place of the "t".

It's not reproducible on demand, but it did happen multiple times today.

My Windows language is English, locale is Dutch, and keyboard is US-international. There are no East-Asian IME's installed on my system. In fact, Dutch+US-int is the only input installed. And I'm using a regular run-of-the-mill US+Euro keyboard.

Hello,

I am using many Beta Apps from the Beta-Applications Page (https://portableapps.com/development/test).

Today I started MP3Tag and I received an update message form MP3Tag (MP3Tag told me that there is a new version is available).
So I checked just some of my beta apps and saw that many of them have been updated (like FreeFileSync, Screenshot Captor, Lazarus).

In the forum topics of many beta apps I asked to release the app as a official portable version (so they update automatically).
But nothing happened.

I would pay $300 for a feature to allow custom launching of apps. Here is how it would work from the Portable Apps Menu:

1. On the Apps button there would be an option, Add Command Line App
2. Choose the icon, or it would default to some built in icon.
3. Choose the name to appear on the menu
4. Choose the exe location on the USB Drive
5. The item would be added to the menu

I need to be able to run two separate portable stacks off two different drives. It works, but the icons are identical and I have to use the mouseover to check which stack I'm invoking when switching tasks or adding another running program.

Is there any way to set/change the tray icon color, say, to match the scheme chosen for the launcher it's attached to?

Thank you.

All of a sudden all of the added categories I had created disapeared and all recatagorized programs went to the other category. Now when I create a new category or recategorize a program, and close and reopen Portableapps The new settings are not saved. "HELP"

why portable apps.com folder'S SIZE

increases with every session of browsing 30-50 MB or even more.how to remove this problem,Plz let me knoe.

I came across a thread that talked about the ability to move the default "Documents" folder location on the thumbdrive, and it stated that the ability was scheduled for a future release. That's awesome, and I have a suggestion for that feature:

Once I have launched an app from the PortableApps Menu, the launcher hides itself and I can't find it anymore.

It used to be available in the Alt-Tab menu but not the taskbar. Now, it's nowhere to be found.
I'm running XP on a school computer, so no/limited debugging possible.
Any idea what's happening? It's a real pain to open the apps using their actual .exe files, and when I do use this I have to eject it while it's still going; not a good practice.

i was wondering if there is a way to make my own theme? i had a old portable app and i had made a theme and changed a lot of things. i just started over with the newest one and i have no idea how to make a theme anymore. can anyone help me out? i searched but the few things i could find where for older versions.

Just Thought i would throw some ideas out

*Install

when installing there should be a check-box that says update multiple usb drives and let you install to more than one thumb for a quick update.

*Options

In the options and advanced there should be a show at all times check-box to make the menu stay open until minimized again.

*Ideas

There should also be a way to add users folders into the quick-launch menu.

Changing the size of the menu sounds good
