PortableApps.com Platform

Hello!

It is possible to create an exe-launcher to start a vbs script with parameters?

Also an own icon will be very nice...

Yours sincerely

The menu not support Windows 2000 ==
Is there any patch to support that OS??

Hi Guys,

I just downloaded and install the Standard Pack.
First I found that many if not all Apps are quite outdated despite yesterday download. But that is not a major problem.
The real issue as I see it is: When you go "Check for update..." from within Apps. it brings you to download pages of a Full versions of program(s) - not the portable ones (???).
Now I know and sure can use links on a respective pages for Portable Apps.
But why any given portable App itself does not provide that correct link?

Thanks in advance
Regards

so I copied my office Folder to my Memory card & it works. the problem is, that the menu displys 8 items from my office folder (Im using only 2 word/exel). How do I get rid of all others? I cant simply delete them psychically, since they are word/exel modules.

After much searching and looking everywhere in the .exe with PE Explorer, I cannot seem to find the solution to this. Even google was of little help.

In Vista, I plug in my USB and Autoplay starts just fine, everything works great! But underneath the "Start PortableApps" is the text "Publisher Not Specified."

My intuition tells me that the Publisher information should go in the appinfo.cfg or under the Version header in PE Explorer. I tried adding in a Publisher string in the Version header and recompiled it successfully, but still no change.

When exiting the program the following instructions are given - Always wait until the drive access light has stopped blinking and then click the icon in your system tray to 'Safely Remove' your device. When I follow these instructions I get the message "the device volume cannot be stopped right now. Try stopping the device again later". Later never comes and I end up just unplugging the USB device. Is there something I am missing or is this the only way to stop the Portable Apps program.

I tried few times already to create an backup of my stick using the backup utility of the PA.

OK, it starts, the cmd window shows some files in some arbitrary order to be backed up, but the job never finishes. It produces a pregress bar, OK, but this is somewhere in the region of 90 percent and will not move further. The harddrive works all the time, after abt 30hrs I have given up that experiment.

The stick is 8gb, has some 5gb data on it.

am I doing something wrong or does this in general work this way?

I love portable apps. I seem to get a secondhand computer from friends, get a new one at work, or school every other month so keeping all my data on an external hard disk with most of my major apps has been a life send. I don't usually contribute to free ware causes but if i can get this shaped up there are a few developers out there to whom I would gladly give funding money (what little i could anyway).

Greetings, everyone. I just downloaded and installed PA and some additional apps only to have nothing work. I couldn't believe it!
