PortableApps.com Platform

I installed Sysinternals software but it has (like many other programs) multiple Icons for different parts of program. I don't need (or want) access to those individually. Is there any way to remove the ones I don't need in the menu?

Ich habe die neuen portablen Programme am 2.2.09 installiert.
Auf der rechten Seite auf PORTABLEAPPS.COM lassen sich beim anklicken
die Ordner:Dokumente,Musik,Bilder, Videos nicht öffnen.
Gibt es eine Möglichkeit diese Ordner wie auf der linken Seite
z.B. Mozilla Firefox auch zu Öffnen?

Please someone just give me a download link for Portable Apps Platform 1.1 in a zip file format. I've been google searching forever still with no results. Every time I click any one of the three Portable Apps download links it says the page cannot be displayed the same happens with the mirrors. Can someone zip it and then email to me : littleboyl33t@yahoo.com

Please somebody just post the Plaform 1.1 zip link...

Hi all ,

Till now , I am not having any difficulties with the PortableApps.com Suit , but what if my USB stick is stolen or what if I loose it somewhere , can I lock my stick or my suit with a password?

Hi all ,

First of all , thank you very much for this wonderful platform , but I have noticed some lacks and some things that are needed to be added.

My main concern is that , I have already installed other portanble applactions like Adobe Photoshop Portable , RealPlayer Portable , Yahoo! Messenger portable and others ...so my main concern here Am I able to add these programs to the PortableApps.com platform menu?

Hi all,

I'm finally back to the portableApps world after several months of inactivity.
I just downloaded and installed the latest 1.1 PortableApps suite.

As I'm blind I work with a screen reader (JAWS from Freedom Scientific available at http://www.Freedomscientific.com).
The first thing I noticed launching the PortableApps menu is that my screen reader "sees" absolutely nothing, apparently because of a graphical design.
Could there be a workaround to make this menu and consequently the entire suite accessible for blinds ?

I was under the impression that PortableApps do not leave any traces whatsoever behind on the host machine. I did a little browsing today and found in DocumentsandSettings/myname/localsettins/temp/ many, many folders, and inside those folders were a couple of dll files and a jpeg. The jpeg showed the splash screen of one of my apps. Several of the folders were for Keeppass, several for Firefox, several for Songbird, and I don't know what all else. What are these files that are being left behind? I'm on a W2K machine without administrator rights. Thanks guys.

Hi All,

(My apologies if my search did not pick this up as an existing post.)

I'm never able to fit everything I need on a single external disc. My needs always seems to stay ahead of the available capacity

One solution I use is to put all my music on separate discs depending of the encoding format. Each music disc has it's own music player (XMPlayer/SongBirg/Foobar) installed on it so I don't have to reset paths and preferences etc.

Why do the following portable apps:

KompoZer Portable, BPBible Portable, GIMP Portable, Mozilla Firefox - Portable Edition, Mozilla Thunderbird - Portable Edition, AbiWord Portable, Mozilla Sunbird - Portable Edition, and ClamWin Portable

show up in C:\Documents and Settings\My Name\Applications Data\

in the following way: .clamwin, bpbible, Kompozer, Mozilla (Extensions, Firefox, Sunbird), and Thunderbird?

The following, other, portable applications that I run on the same stick such as:

SIW, JungleDisk Portable, TrueCrypt, XnView and MozBackup

appear in the following way:

I've just installed a bunch of apps on my thumb drive after formatting it. It works fine on my laptop at home. At work, though, it runs fine the first time, but after that I can't click on any of the application buttons. The menu is visible, as is the right-click menu on the systray icon, but I can't actually do anything with the menu, beyond the first click.

Right now, I'm starting the app by double-clicking on z:\papps\startportableapps.exe.

Any hints or suggestions?

Thanks,

Jeff
