PortableApps.com Platform

Hello: Based on this post I have a couple questions to confirm proper understanding of the process. https://portableapps.com/development/beginner_packaging

1. The function of the portableapps.cominstaller is to just package up into a .paf.exe file which in turn load my app onto my device?

After running the portableapps.cominstaller I receive the following error in the log.

SetOutPath: "$INSTDIR\Other"
File: Descending to: "..\..\Other\Source\"
File: Returning to: "..\..\Other"
File: "..\..\Other\*.*" -> no files found.
Usage: File [/nonfatal] [/a] ([/r] [/x filespec [...]] filespec [...] |
/oname=outfile one_file_only)
Error in script "C:\Macro\Other\Source\PortableApps.comInstaller.nsi" on line 1068 -- aborting creation process

Line 1068 from the path noted above about the comInstaller.nsi is
1067 SetOutPath $INSTDIR\Other

Anyway to add folders to organize the PA interface?

help! When I start StartPorableApps.e.xe on Windows7 then the window appears, but after the first click inside the window the choosed application starts and the window disappears. It also disappears when I click somewhere else. How can I get it permanent on desktop just als for example PStart?

Hi,

I have just installed the complete potable apps suite, and I am finding that the apps are launching twice...2 instances of web browser, 2 of calc etc.

Have I done something wrong?

Many thanks for any help

How about integration of FlashBin into PA menu?
I use it, and it is great, but hate to see it running as additional app, which I have to open manually (or autorun), then remember to close it separately.
If this can be integrated into PA, the PA would be one more step closer to perfection.

I know it must be very hard work keeping this site running and tryin to get the apps for the platform, I mean no disrespect to those developing this platform, in fact i'm a big fan of it. After trying several others i've come back to the PAP, or rather the MOD R34, only because it has more of the features i like and use. I do hope some of the ideas presented here will be given consideration, and i'd like those of you who agree with them to give some encouragement to those in 'charge' to include them in some future release of the platform.

Sugerencia:

Quisiera sugerir el poder poner en carpetas los iconos de las aplicaciones que tengo instaladas, ademas de poder renombrarlas, esconderlas, ordenar los iconos y ademas me gustaria poder encontrar la forma de enlazar otra aplicación fuera de la carpeta "portabelapps.com".

Gracias.

Tip:

When PortableApps.com Installer 1.0.1 came out, there was a little discussion about renaming it... hopefully nobody gets upset, but I'd like to resurrect that discussion.
IMHO, "PortableApps.com Bundler" would be a better name for the installer; at least to me, "Bundler" sounds more like what the app actually does: bundles an appropriately-formatted file & folder structure into a PA.c installer.

Just my 2¢ worth...

Keep up the good work!

I accidentally deleted my autorun config file. Can anyone give me the code that goes in it. Thanks!
