PortableApps.com Platform

As suggested, I shall open a new thread to track this issue.

I have multiple apps/utilities that were categorized into folders, under PoratableApps.com folder I just put directory symlinks to the real directories.

Because the real directories were categorized into folders, sometimes its paths were a bit long. I managed it somehow.

However, whenever the absolute path length is greater than 260 characters, the app can not be opened from the PortableApps.com Platform.

After updating the OS, I get this error when I try to run Start.exe

OS: Windows 10 Pro 22H2 19045.3448

Whenever i try and use the eject button on Portable apps 26.2.1 it causes a BSOD (page fault in nonpaged area).

This has happened on two different computers now.

Has anyone else seen this recently?

Hello,

I want to know why the installer of Irfanview installs both the 32 bit and the 64 bit versions of the program.

The develeper of Irfanview has updated a few plugins without changing the version number of the program.

Two format plugins contains security fixes, which is important especially for the WebP format.

Thanks.

Hello could you please tell Me if there is a setting in the PortableApps platform somewhere for Aplications that come with both the 32-Bit App version And the 64-Bit App version to only instal one of the two versions? And if there is one where do i find it? And how can i set it to if possible install only the 64-Bit version?
With a wish of a good day to you and a thank you beforehand for any reply.

There's a bug in the updater: it uninstalls apps even if there is not a replacement.

TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM:
1. Wait until there are two or more updates to be downloaded.
2. Begin the update process.
3. Cancel each of the downloads.
At the end of the downloads, the updater will uninstall all apps to be updated, then will discover the update files are not present and display an error for each of them. (Sure would be nice if the updater had a log, the error display vanished rather quickly.)

In our company we have any installations blocked by different security agents. However, we can unzip things and run them. I want to use couple applications (e.g. Thunderbird) on the PC and was hoping that PortableApps would help. However, I realized that in order to even use the Portable Apps I first need to install it - which completely defeats the purpose of what I thought PortableApps is supposed to be. I tried to read through different documentations but everywhere I see that I first need to 'install it'.

Hi there!

There ist a topic from 2016 about this, but I still encouter this problem and have no solution yet:

I use FileZilla portable within a Veracrypt container / Drive.
I always close FileZilla after use.
The Veracrypt container ist automatically dismounted when I switch off the computer and Windows shuts down.

Always after I start the computer and mount the Veracrypt container again, FileZilla says "App did not close properly and must be cleaned up" - which is very very annoying.

Can you provide an option to choose to use the system’s default browser to open the platform’s link? Or choose what browser to use?
It seems to always use Maxthon (the only browser I installed on the platform). But I want to use Edge instead.

This is the error I've just received at launching PortableApps Platform.
