PortableApps.com Platform

LibreOffice is not appearing in the PortableApps Store. I see OpenOffice but not LibreOffice. Using PA.c Platfrom 'Next' Pre-Release 4.

I just upgraded to the new pre-release of the Platform, pre-release 4, now when I try to close the launcher like i had always did before, using the close "x" icon, it won't close.
I have already closed all my portable apps, but it still will not close. I have to have Windows force close it. I have tried this on two different UFDs (two different brands), but I have the same issue. I am running Windows 7 Pro, no issue with previous releases.

Any ideas would be appreciated.

Thanks.

I'm sorry if I'm posting this in the wrong area, but what I have a question about the PortableApps.com Automatic Updater and the App Store, if you feel it needs to be moved, please feel free!

Hi all! I just got the Windows 8 Developer edition and installed it on my computer. I really like what I am seeing so far and can't wait till the beta.

I ran the "Next" Pre-Release on my external HDD, and it would never let me close the platform or eject because Windows was not letting PA.c write to the USB. Running PA.c in "Administrator Mode" fixed this problem. The only issue I have is letting it run in Admin mode. Just for obvious security reasons.

Can you get the platform to start up as soon as you conect your portable hard drive? Or do you have to go and find it each time?

Hello,

i want to use the option:
"Show All With Categories - Favorites listed first. All other apps by category".

Unfortunalelly this option doesnt work. The categories are shown, but the favorites are NOT shown. What can I do?
My PortableAppsMenu.ini includes:

[DisplayOptions]
Language=English
LargeFonts=False
HideDesktopIcons=False
UseCategories=True
ShowAllApps=True
ExpandCategoriesByDefault=False
DisableScrollBar=False
HidePortableInAppNames=True
DisableSplashScreens=False
Theme=BeveledDark
ThemeColor=Blue
ThemeCustomColor=
StartPositionHorizontal=Right

Hello,

Admittedly it's been awhile since I installed PA last and as mentioned in my earlier post this is my first experience with the Platform. But my recollection is that the suite was more or less a single install. I love the concept of a custom suite, but I selected ~80 apps to include, and now it's going through 80 separate installation routines. Is that normal? Or did I do something wrong?

I'm just now using the new PA.c Platform for the first time, so I apologize if this is something that's already been covered. I could not find it in the forums.

I think the new Platform and AppStore idea is terrific, and I liked being able to customize my own suite. I'm wondering now whether there is a function within the platform to let me export my Suite to a text or xml file so that I could then load it on another computer and get the exact same suite (or send it to a friend who's not already familiar with PA and say, "start with these".

Hi guys,
i need some help, i've downloaded PA application and have installed it on my HDD Portable, but when i put the usb in my pc it wont start the Platform, but make me choose between various option, but not PortableApps Platform.
I need that when i put in my HDD it will start the Platform automatically.

Hope i was clear and sorry for my bad english.
Thx a lot
