PortableApps.com Platform

Hi all,

Have being using portable Firefox for some time now, and recently made the jump to the full Portable Apps - very nice!

Everything works just fine except there is one problem. Where I work we plug-in different jump drives to the same computer, and thus each user renames the portable drive (right-clicking the drive and selecting "rename").

To give theme designers and end users more choices, I think it would be cool if you could allow the apps section and folders/options section to show either icons , text, or both. We could then design themes that used only text ( some people don't like icons ), or text on the apps section and only icons on the folders/options section. Combined with my idea of adjustable margins this allows a lot of flexibility in theme design.
This would be a setting made in the .ini by the theme designer, and the end user could change them by editing the .ini if they wanted it different.

Hello, I love portableapps, but it wont auto run on my U3 dongle as it is not a .u3p extention any chance of making some kind of shortcut thingy??

Also any way to rename things on the menu?? I put my own stuff in the portableapps folder but it is called shockwave flash and not what it actually is (it is a flash program)

Keep up the good work appers..

hey

i was wondering if you would consider putting the close button on top (or a right click close/shutdown option).

I had a working copy of FF 2.0.0.1 on my 512. I also had its exe. file on the drive.
When I installed the Apps Suite Menu a non-updated copy of FF appeared on the menu.

My drive is locked in that I cannot remove the unwanted copy of FF nor can I get
the Apps Menu to delete as it says it cannot remove FF because it is being used some where else. I stored a copy of my working FF in My Documents and stripped the
drive virtually except I CANNOT delete the Apps Menu. It's beautiful to look at
but PStart worked very well and I never had problems like this. Somehow there are

For accessibility, it would be nice to add a right-click option for PortableApps in Windows Explorer.

This can be done by adding the following lines to the autorun.inf:

Shell\Read1\Command=PortableApps\PortableAppsMenu\PortableAppsMenu.exe
Shell\Read1=&Start PortableApps

You can have as many pairs as you want for any options. Perhaps have a command here to launch Firefox or Thunderbird.

Forgive me if I'm opening up old wounds, but I was wondering where the source for the menu could be found. I've read though the previous discussions, and didn't find anything, and a quick search over the download and spec. page didn't show and source files or links. Any help in finding this would be great.

Thanks in advance.

Hello all !

I have a suggestion for the PortableAppsMenu application.
Is it possible to add an option to desactivate the Fade In/Out effect that shows up the menu when clicking on the icon in the systray ?

My computer is slightly slow and it's really fading in & out so slowly, it's a bit hard to use the menu for me.
For those who hates visual effects (like me) it could be a great stuff too.

Your software is a huge one, thanks a lot for developping it!!!

When will come a new Version of Portable Apps Menu?

We're w8ing :P, GL!
