PortableApps.com Platform

Would there be any way to have all of Open Office show up as one item? I remember it working this way on U3 drives and I preferred it since I don't usually use Open Office off of the thumbdrive. It's really, really handy to have when you do need it, though!

Oh, by the way, the quality of the PA Menu, the way it works, and the integrated backup made me switch off of U3 to this. Great work!

Just a boatload of features and other things I suggest to be added/integrated with the Portable Apps Menu.

1. Have a little feature that can restrict files on all the drives (including the thumbdrive that the menu runs off of.) to launch only using the apps in the menu.
(similar in concept to AppSnapper ( the link: http://software.u3.com/Product_Details.aspx?ProductId=244&Selection=8&La... )

Also with this feature make it easy for other to write scripts to use the feature with their own Portable apps.

Note: AppSnapper costs some money.

How I can import a *.exe from a other portable program, like with pstart?
Because I have also a portable skype , a nonistall version of DeepBurner, an µtorrent (make it portable after I read in internet a instruction) an som other program I like to use.
If there is already a answer for this, sorry I can't find.

A couple suggestions for future versions of PAM.
The ability to have the Music, Pictures, Videos open a custom program rather than explorer.
Have the TrayIcon "hint" display the drive label and letter.

Not specific to PAM..
How about a "sticky" Topic just for suggestions at the top of each support forum.

Not sure if this is the right forum but it seems to be part of the PAM now so I will post it here.

I just updated my PAM to the newest release. I had trouble because I could not follow directions at first though.

My Drive only had the following files/folders in the root:

• PAM launcher
• Documents(PAM Style)
• Autorun.ini
• usb.ico

Here's what I did.

I used the PAM and PAB to Backup:

• Apps
• Documents
• Entire Drive

Sorry if this is in the wrong forum!

I would like to change the names of the Music, Pictures, Video folders. Is there a way to do that so the changes show up in the Suite Menu?

Also can I add folders to that menu?

As the topic title says, skins for the menu would be great.

Hi, me again. Where I can find the source code for the menu? I can't find it among the downloaded files... Is it distributed under GLP, or just closed like PStart ?

the portableapps menu works fine for .exe files but what if i wanna put a link to a document or other file on that menu? somebody should make a version of the menu that lists the portable apps AND also whatever else anybody wants, period.

Great softs out there and the Portable Apps menu is awesome
