PortableApps.com Install won't work!

Submitted by noddy0505 on December 10, 2008 - 4:40am

I just got onto this and wanted to try it out.
I wanted to install it on my other PC (Windows Vista) but when I try to install it but when I choose the directory and click INSTALL it comes up with an error straight away "Error opening file for writing: ***\Desktop.ini" Then I have a choice of Abort, Retry, Ignore and it does this for every single file.

I thought it might of been an incomplete file or something but I installed it 1st time on my XP Computer.

is there any mod that.....

hey, is there any PortableApps menu that is released by PortableApps.com which allows you to rename files, create folders and other stuff? i already tried the R34_mod_patched but i didn't like the fuzzy writing of PortableApps.com at the top of the menu. If it's not a beta test from the PortableApps.com website, i.e. its from some other site, plz tell me...i'll still check it out.

Folder Icon Simplifier

Would it be difficult to create a GUI that would allow one to assign icons to folders on Flash Drives using relative paths? Something similar to the windows interface possibly? Whenever I try to do it myself, but never was successful outside of assigning default windows icons from shell32.

PAM Inverted Theme (my first one... online)

I do have made some themes, but never uploaded them online for the lack of what I call a stable platform, but today I decided to simply upload them. This is the first of many the few themes I made themes that will be uploaded.

Bug Report: Improperly handling file names containing ".exe"

DeathByNukes's picture
Submitted by DeathByNukes on December 3, 2008 - 12:53pm

File names containing ".exe" in the middle of them are improperly handled.
For example, there is a file in the otherwise empty folder "\PortableApps\Example" named "This is not an .exe!!".
This would generate a menu entry "This is not an .e"
