PortableApps.com Platform

This problem started earlier this year after a PortableApps update. I didn't track which one, I just ignored it and worked around it thinking it would be fixed in the next update. Nope.

There is a bug in the summary window: https://imgur.com/a/a0FOyNu (I use hungarian language, the "Mappa:" = "Folder:")
In the folder path name end visible the "\r" escape character?! In the example above I make a backup to the S: drive, not "r" folder in the S: drive.

Sorry for my poor english!

Portableapps platform 16.0
windows 10 64-bit
JAWS 2019

I just installed portableapps 16.0 on a usb harddrive and was disappointed to discover that the app store context menu is no longer readable by the JAWS screenreader.

When I click (press space/enter) on apps, the context menu pops up but jaws can't read any of the items in the menu.
When I perform the same steps on portableapps 14.0 (the last version I have available, the context menu is completely accessible and reads fine.

Basically, i have modified my autorun.inf to look like this

[Autorun]
Icon=PortableApps\PortableApps.com\Assets\terminal.ico
Label=CygDrive

And i keep getting this error everytime i launch portableapps. How do i supress this? https://i.imgur.com/JD4YIy6.png

I am using Linux Mint and have installed Wine to run Windows programs. I want to use PortableApps on this machine, I haven't found one that I can use as a "native" application in Linux, and the version I have downloaded from the PortableApps website PortableApps.com_Platform-Setup_16.0.2.paf.exe is a paf loader & Wine does not like it. I think what i need is something like PortableApps.com_Platform-Setup_16.0.2.exe as mentioned in the support section in Download & Install. Where can i get it?

Is there a .exe switch or setting somewhere in the program I can use to keep the Platform from auto searching for a network connection when starting? Thanks

Hello !

Is there something (similar to FireFox's synchronisation account) like a central PA synchronisation feature, allowing to automatically keep the same installed apps on all the computers where I've installed PA or am using PA ? My problem is that those computers don't always have permanent Internet access (hence the memory stick) and/or are not fully under my control/exclusive usage, which makes me reluctant to use a cloud service and/or leave my cloud account credentials on these computers.

Thanks for your feedback and advice !

Can somebody please tell me how to make this Platform autostartup when I boot my USB WinPE stick? I have indicated to "Start after Windows boot" or whatever during the install process and I have tried editing the autorun.inf file six ways to Sunday and I just cant seem to get it to autostart upon booting WinPE...it is in a root directory named \Programs. Thanks for any info!

I run portable on several different sticks for several different reasons, depends on whether I am a network tech, hardware/software tech, or just general office drudge. I would like to put a header on the menu page so that I can tell which stick I have loaded without unloading and looking at the label on the underside of the stick.

How can I do this?

Thanks for the help. Love the products.

Hi there.

I accidentally delete the autorun.inf nested inside my "Documents" folder.

So I am left with a boring looking folder icon. I missed the old PortableApps custom icon.

Can someone provide me the contents of the .inf file for the PA custom Documents folder icon?

I want the original one to stay true to PA.
