PortableApps.com Platform

I have installed the last version of application on USB key.
I installed over third part application and this function correctly.

This program require to write into a folder during function but isn't possible because the folder for application have read only attribute.
I try to eliminate this but remain.
What could i do?

I work in xp pro SP2, with user administrator

I successfully 'backuped' PA from the USB stick. However, when I tried to backup PA installation on the HD partition D\Portable\, the backup utility tried to backup the entire partition and reported a failure. Anybody had this experience? Is backup utility really supposed to work this way (which is unlikely)?

I didn't realize that there was a Portable Apps suite until after I installed and customized my portable Firefox (with addons), GoodSync2Go, RoboForm2Go. What if I wanted to install Portable Apps suite especially with GUI but don't want to reinstall portable Firefox, GoodSync2Go, RoboForm2Go on my portable hard drive? Is that possible?

Thanks

Following the example of the Win7 theme plugin, here's one I call "Windows Classic". I am often using RDP sessions, so less colors and color effects is *always* a good thing for speed reasons. This theme is just that: flat and boring, but color-matched to the "Windows Classic" themes.

Find it here.

Released to the public domain, since it's so incredibly simple.

Can somebody comment on why "It's best to install it [portable suite] right to the root directory of your portable drive (X:\ where X is the drive letter).

In particular, I installed the suite not on a stick but in a separate (so non-root) folder/directory of the D\ hard drive partition.

Questions:
First, can I expect the suite behave differently when installed on a HD rather than a USB stick?

Second, does it make a difference whether the suite is installed in the root of HD partition or in its sub-directory/folder? Any side-effects?

Thanks.

Downloaded Portableapps Suite early this week. Everything worked just fine. I left it a couple of days and when I tried again to use Mozilla a security message appeared and I found that I couldn't access sites with SSL encryption. I have restarted, removed excess baggage from my flash drive, re-downloaded PA Suite - to no avail. Any clues?

If I include an 'EULA.txt' in 'Other\Source', when the app is installed (and before first run) I'm getting 'Data\PortableApps.comInstaller\license.ini' which contains

[PortableApps.comInstaller]
EULAVersion=1

Is this the expected behaviour?

Hey,

I run PA from my external hard drive. I'd like to make a complete backup of my PA data with the backup tool, but that will also backup 500gb+ from the entire drive.

Would be nice if I could point to a custom folder and make a complete PA backup that way.

Thank you

PortableAapps.com Platform version: 2.0 beta 1
As I had started the PortableApps.com Platform, the Microsoft Security Essentials froze the application and alerted me of a severe trojan. I don't know why but I didn't expect the PortableApps Platform could be performing trojan style commands and be a serious issue?

I hope someone here could help! I have copied and pasted the details of the trojan: PWS:Win32/Ldpinch.gen

Hi.

Would it be possible, in a future release of PortableApps.com platform, to add an option into the PortableAppsMenu.ini file to specify where the "Music" etc links in the menu should point?

Because, I don't like having "Music" and "Videos" inside my "Documents" folder. I'd rather have them side by side in the root of the drive - similar to how Windows Vista and 7 do it. So it would be really useful for me if I could specify the paths to these folders.

Cheers,
Robin.
