PortableApps.com Platform

To have the background colour of the Platform's icon in the tray to match that of the menu's theme.

I sometimes have 3 Menus running, fixed drive, USB drive and VeraCrypt mounted volume. Be nice to be able to differentiate them in the notification area.

Be able to set an item in the menu to 'Start on Platform Exit'

I know this only saves a few mouse moves and clicks but it would ensure I and my friends and family don't forget to do our backup at the end of a session.

I have one in the root of my drive with all my utilities and one in a VeraCrypt volume with KeePass, GnuCash, Thunderbird, a few other utilities and all my confidential documents.

It would be nice not to have to close both instances when one is updated. Could this be done and if not would appreciate knowing the technical reason why.

Hi,

our corp has just enabled a new protection software for our PCs (Cisco AMP for Endpoints). The platform installer now is recognised as a threat and is 'quarantined'. The message is the file has been detected as W32.File.MalParent.

I cannot even complete a download now before it is detected and removed, so I cannot do a scan with other software.

What's your advice? Is it worthwhile trying to contact Cisco directly?

At Help/About, PortableAppsPlatform 17.1 incorrectly reports itself as 17.0.1

The latest version of PAP includes an option to monitor for autorun.inf changes (defaulted to enabled).

What are the advantages/disadvantages of enabling or disabling this?

On the surface, it seems like if you don't manually edit autorun.inf while you have PAP running, there is no reason not to disable this functionality, but maybe I'm not seeing the whole picture.

Hi,

I want to download PDF-XChange Editor Portable V7 instead of V8, is this possible?

So i have a custom Autorun.inf file that i use to make my flashdrive seem more customized.

i have said it all in title. Is there anyway i can do this ?

After Win10 Update most PortableApps Programs started with error 0xc000007b
Firefox, Thunderbird didn't but
Irfanview, Lightscreen, and many other do error 0xc000007b
At moment my fix ist to start directly from Appdir:
U:\PortableApps\LightscreenPortable\App\Lightscreen\lightscreen.exe works
U:\PortableApps\LightscreenPortable\LightscreenPortable.exe dont start tc. error 0xc000007b
Is there any Hotfix, known Grouppolicy or Startpolicy to start USB based Programs better result for PA?

thanks for serve me
Lutz
