PortableApps.com Platform

Hi,
I am kinda confused with name of the app - Installer (PA.c Installer).
I mean, what does it install?
Based on the description I understand that it is more like a "packager" rather than "installer":
"..Installer allows you to quickly package your portable apps.."

Showed up as soon as I installed platform from my USB drive. Symantec Endpoint wont remove.

I have a kingston data traveler 108 ur drive it is prloaded with apps

I tried installing the portable apps platform 10 it installed but did not show any applications in the large box to the left no firefox or thunderbird

can some offer advice I want to load the full suite including firefox and thunderbird

What can I say...

I like the idea of portable apps where I can carrying around a selection of programs without having to install them wherever I go...(like in work - I can't install ANYTHING)

BUT.....the one thing I DON'T like

Why such a large launcher menu ??
Can we not have a more compact version on offer ???

Hi,

the only reason why I keep going back to Asuite instead of the PA platform is, that there are no hotkeys for the applications possible.
Is this on the agenda or am I the only one who would like to start applications with a keyboard stroke instead of browsing the platform with the mouse?

I downloaded and unpacked photofilmstrip 1.5.0 where the PhotoFilmStrip.exe file sits in a folder named bin which is a subfolder of the main folder. The are no files in the main folder, only subfolders. What do I do in order to make it appear in the PortableApps Platform? Moving the .exe file to the main folder makes it appear but the app does not work then.

Ok. Basic description
No personal picture, i know this has been mentioned
but seccondly
Whenever i start up the portable apps platform, it gives me the error of


The file being read is not a valid "Portable Network Graphics" image because it contains an invalid header. This file may be corrupted, try obtaining it again


It gives me no directory, and no other information

Any help for this??

Thanks

Is there a way to provide instructions to the PAM via CLI?

I'm sure this would have a lot of advantages for a lot of people.

In my case I've created a batch to mount a TrueCrypt volume and launch PortableApps. Now I'm trying to create another to close the menu using a method equivalent to pressing the exit (not eject) button from the menu and unmount the drive.

Hoping to avoid TaskKill for this as I would prefer a more elegant option that enables the possibility of integrating a PAM data/profile in the future.

I have found an application (Mowes Portable) which I really like but it needs to run on the root level of the usb. This as far as I know means that the .exe can not be inserted into the portableapps menu. Is there any way of linking this application into the menu? I tried simply creating a windows shortcut and inserting that into a folder in the proper directory in the portableapps drive, but this was apparently too simple. Any help would be appreciated. Moderators please feel free to place this into a more appropriate location if necessary.

I remember when the new Platform launched (10.0.1?) the personal picture feature caused the platform to crash and burn until it was disabled... was this ever fixed?
