Install From app store

Hi,

Long time follower. I've just downloaded and installed portable apps platform onto my WD MYhome drive. This is the second time I have done it, the first time I did it was last year and it worked fine. Now when I've installed it and try to install a app from the built in wizard, you tick the app you want and then what do you do? Next is greyed out so I cannot continue further.

Do I need to manually download ever paf file off the website that I want?

Cheers

PortableApps does not update

Hi,

Previously, whenever I ran BitTorrent, I noticed numerous connections (about 30) from the same IP address with different port numbers. No traffic seems to be happening on those connections. When I killed the connections, they always reappeared immediately. For one torrent, the connections have the same IP addresses, but the address is random from the 103.1.138.1 to 103.1.138.254 range.

Platform menu doesn’t disappear after starting some application sometimes.

Hi,

I didn’t find such already exiting topic here, so I write this new one. Sometimes the menu of the platform doesn’t disappear (minimize) after starting the application and simply stays here, in spite of the setting that tells to do so. This happens sporadically and I can’t see a pattern here.

So my first question is: how to find the reasons of this issue? Would be logging activation as a first step be enough or could I do more to get the required information for this bug?

Sincerely yours, Anton.

I went through the entire Support Forum and could find not help.

I have a Windows 10 desktop HP Envy i7 and a Windows 10 laptop Dell Inspirion 15 i5 that will not eject the PortableApps USB drive.
Inspection reveals that "eject.exe" file in %temp% folder is not being deleted (even when the USB_Eject_Cleanup.bat is executed in Admin)
Therefore, when I try to eject the USB PortableApps again I get the error popup:
"eject
Could not write to windows temp dir!
The program will now exit.

Hi masters,

For some reason the PortableApps I have on OneDrive just does not open. I try to execute Start.exe and no process is generated.
When I restart the computer it works fine for some days.
But, if I try to open it though PortableApps\PortableApps.com\PortableAppsPlatform.exe it always works fine.
Please, someone have any clue of whats going wrong here?

Thanks a lot and regards
