PortableApps.com Platform

Today I started to use this cool set of lightweight portable applications.

Howeverr, when I tried to start the 'StartPortableApps.exe' (located in the root of my USB flash drive, I got the following application error 'Exception EOSError in module PortableAppsMenu.exe at 0000DA65. System error. Code: 87. The parameter is incorrect.'

Is there anybody experiencing the same problems and do any of you what may cause this and how it can be solved?

FYI: all the applications work if I run them via their own program folder (e.g. FirefoxPortable\FirefoxPortable.exe).

I was looking at installing PAM, but already have some apps installed (Firefox and XAMPP Lite from here - and RoboForm). How do I install PAM and bring in my current apps without damaging them?

Maybe I didn't get enough sleep last night, but I could not find this info on the support page nor by searching or browsing this forum.

Thanks,
Tom

I should add - I am looking at installing the Base Edition - as there are just a couple more apps I would want to install.

Sorry to bother you again with my questions, I am discovering PAM as I just discovered there was a patch for Win2K ...

Is there possibility of addinf other folders like documents music and videos... (and eventually with pretty icons )

Thank again for your patience ...

the structure awaited by PAM leads me to have the unistall.exe to show up in menu ...

Is there any other way to not have them in menu than deleting them ?

I have a portable application I would like to add to the menu
The whole of the program (.exe and dependencies are ine one single folder)

I am blocked with the installer of portable apps menu

What is the procedure to add any portable exe in the menu ?

I was using pstart formerly and a simple right click on the menu onpened a context menu with add file ...
I just want to do the same with a portable exe ...

thank in advance

Hi!

It would be nice, if PAM would change the current working directory to the directory of the application in a future release, as I'm unable to start certain apps the way it is right now. Let me explain:

Here is the first ever Halo Menu Theme. I comes also with Halo looking icons. The icons were not made by me, all I did to the icons was resize them and convert them from a PNG format to an ICO format. The link to the creator's deviantart is right here: yingjunjiu.deviantart.com

Suggestions are more than Welcome!

Is there a keyboard shortcut or a way to set one to open the menu without having to click on the tray icon?

I installed portable apps but when I put it on my work computer (where I am not registered as an admin user) I was not been able to access my flash drive. Ever since then I have not been able to access my flash drive. My computer recognizes the flash drive but it says that I have 0 free space and 0 space altogther. Has anyone else had this problem? How could I go about clearing and maybe even reformatting my flash? I have tried disk mangement and it does not recognize it. Any help would be great. Thanks.
