I've installed PAM (and the patch) on my Kingston 1GB non-U3 drive.

• The host PC is running Windows 2K SP4.
• I can connect my drive OK, but have to run StartPortableApps.exe manually off the USB drive (mapped to drive R:\) to get it to appear in the tray.
• The Autorun.inf does not run when I insert the drive.
• The small cross at the bottom right of the menu screen is inactive, it only shows the default cursor and does not act as a hotspot as per the other menu entries

Ok, I've made the suggestion for a clickable image to start PAM before.
But I have a new argument so I thought I would post it.
A came across a different launcher from PC Magazine called Start Eaze.
Really did not like the launcher, but I LOVED what they did with the clickable image to start the launcher.
On the subject of ease of use for beginners, where is the most "natural" place to click to launch programs?
The start button right..

First off, the PortableApps Menu is an excellent application. I'm actually using it as a replacement for the start menu for any of the apps I'm using. One thing I would love to see, however, is the ability to activate the menu via a keystroke. I know that kind of defeats the point of being portable, since that would somewhat require access to the system directly, but no more so than having the icon in the system tray. If there were a way to trigger the pop-up by pressing a Win+? combination, like Win+1 or something, that would be great.

This may be way too soon, because we are due soon for a PAM update from John.

I'll ask anyway.

It should be possible to have the PAM "install" a .paf.exe folder directly to the PortableAppsMenu folder and overwrite the DefaultData folder right?

Of course someone would have to have the latest release of PAM, but I though this might be easier to change themes.

I have created a new menu theme/skin for PAM.

I downloaded PortableApps last week and since then I love it, now I read on the forums that there are templates and localization files, but the portableappmenu.exe program does not seems to read the files at all

So what Im missing??

I have created a more basic theme template for use with GIMP.

Thanks to Ryan for hosting it.

I ordered a 4GB SanDisk Cruiser with U3 on Friday morning. Last night, Last night I thought, "Da! I have an iPod!" There is 14GB free on my 60GB iPod Photo. I've installed the suite and it very works and and Firefox starts up faster.

The only thing is that PAM doesn't auto-start like it does on my 128MB Dell thumb drive. On the Dell TD, I only have Firefox, PuTTY, PortableBacup, and PAM. Is there a way I can get PAM to auto-start when the iPod is plugged in?
