PortableApps.com Platform

When installing multiple portableapps, the platform exits with a stack overflow.
The workaround for this is starting the platform again.

Version: 2.0 Beta 5 Pre 2
OS: Windows XP

I am wondering if I would be able to see the source code for the PortableApps platform. I find the default menu (themes included) ugly and conspicuous, and was hoping that I could see the source code to turn the menu into a bar along the side of the monitor. I would not redistribute it, and also, either PortableApps or VLC crashed my friend's and my thumb drives, and I want to see the source code for that too.

I just think that the New PortableApps.com Platform Should be Password Protected like Geek.menu With customizable return contact if the portable device is lost just like Geek.menu

Can you guys remove / make the sign "portableapps.com smaller? Because it looks terrible.

Thanks

As PortableApps app files move about when they run, is it not possible to run them from read-only media?

Is there any way I can run PortableApps from a DVD?

Having them to hand on a virtual DVD when setting up a new Hyper-V virtual server would be very useful to me, as they have no USB support.

Is there an app that allows the menu to stay visible on the desktop? I do not like having to click the small icon in the tray on the taskbar. Also, I have downloaded PA 2.0 hoping to be able to resize the menu. Either that is not possible or I have overlooked something. Can the menu be resized?

Thanks everyone,
Greg

Hi,

one of the things that bothers me in portable apps is that I need to check for every app how links are opened in the browser and how I'm able to change that to my portable one.

After I was successfull in changing the target browser in thunderbird I completly failed at the messenger. I've made a lot of research on pidgin (it had the feature in the past, but they removed it), miranda and trillian. But no one is able to select a non default browser. And there are many other apps that aren't able, too. f.e. pdfs or simple word documents with hyperlinks etc.

So I've asked myself:

when i run portableapps updater, it searches for apps in the same folder(or drive?) where it has launched from.
i have apps in multiple drives, how can i update them using only one copy of updater?
thank you
