PortableApps.com Platform

I suggest a context menu for the items on the menu.

On it, I have the following:

1. Rename -- Change the name that is shown to you.

2. Hide From Menu -- Removes the item from the menu.

I also suggest a new button on the menu, "Show All", which only appears if you have at least one hidden item.

3. Show On Menu -- Makes the item not hidden anymore. Only shows if the item is hidden, and you click Show All and find the context menu of the item you want.

Several Potential Problems with MojoPac?
After Installing MojoPac to an external hard drive connected to a Host PC which uses WinXP Pro and IE and has a Firewall and Virus Scan software installed, I noticed that in the MojoPac WinXP environment when I would do certain functions that it would show up in the Host PC's firewall that a particular program was active although it was activated in the MojoPac WinXP environment?

I also noticed that after installing MojoPac that the MojoPac username and such is filed under the Host PC's Documents and Settings?

how do i get the platform to autorun, it used to but i don't know what happened
thanks in advance

I guess I'm just dense but I'm struggling with the directions to make a directory
next to the Portable Apps Directory. I'd love to send a screen shot of what I've done but since that isn't possible I'll have to try to describe it.

Hello,
I checked the Thunderbirdportable folder content. The folder ThunderbirdPortable\Other\Source\ contains different language installer and laucher files. I am using a French version.
Question:
Can all the other language files be removed from the folder.
Thanks in advance and have a great day.

As the subject - Search reveals nothing and Add/Remove doesn't list it and there is no uninstall link anywhere I can see.
I thought this app. would be useful but I cannot fathom how to use it - I have a block on this.

Please help! Thanks.

On Aug 8, wk said:
so I´ve found the solution:
the menu.exe seems to read the default theme.ini for the standard settings -> I´ve changed the ini under app buttons from FontName=Tahoma to Font=Tahoma and it works.
Seems that the coding for the fonts is Font=.., not FontName=.

Actually, the same [AppButtons] FontName problem exists in the default theme.ini file under the following sections:

• [MenuButtons]
• [OpenMenuButtons]

Also change those two sections from "FontName=Tahoma" to "Font=Tahoma".

Hi all

My autorun recently got deleted and I am trying to remember how I wrote it!

I have a file "autorun.ini" in my root dir with


[Autorun]
Open=PortableApps\StartPortableApps.exe
Action=Start PortableApps.com
Icon=PortableApps\StartPortableApps.exe
Label=PortableApps.com


But the run potable apps icon doesnt show up in the options prompt at all!
I cant see whats wrong, I could understand if it was there but didnt work properly....

I get this error on 1 of my computers:

"The portableappsmenu.exe file is not a valid portableapps.com release and cannot be launched."

how do i fix that? it works fine on School computers and my vista laptop, but not my XP desktop.

Is there a way to add files to the portable apps menu that are located on the local machine and not on the thumb drive?
