Is there a way a PortableApps program can be ignored during updates so the updater will not list it as an option to update?

I know I can just rename or move the folder but that will break file associations and shortcuts.

An ignore option for each app would help work around problems like Notepad++ 7.6.0 breaking portable Notepad++'s plugins. I could just stick with 7.5.9 and set PortableApps to ignore it when doing updates. Hopefully, Notepad++ gets fixed and the updates can be turned back on.

Did an update of the platform recently, but either the internet connection or something with the PC went wrong during the update process. Now the PortableApps menu is gone, there's only a small window with some unreadable lines left when I click on the icon. The apps themselves still work properly, but how do I get the menu and the update function back? Install portableapps in its old folder again - but will it recognise the list of apps then? Any help appreciated. Best regards, Joe Theo

I have resisted updating the platform software for a long time. I was satisfied with the way the old platform (for reference, the date on the StartPortableApps.exe file is Nov. 2006, and it may actually be older than that) handled entries - fixed order and a single window, and not all that eager to move to the newer formats, esp. in the early versions. I have done fresh installs on other systems and finally decided to take advantage of the ease of application updates in the newer platform.

Hi,
The download for jdkPortable 64-bit is giving a 404 at the moment.

I got a "Page Not Found" error on Download page for "Portable Fonts" link (https://portableapps.com/platform/fonts).

Firefox Nightly version does not install with error. Error message: 404 FILE NOT FOUND
Does anyone have an offline installer link?

Hi

I'm very intrigued by the possibilities of portable apps on a USB stick, but being a novice, I'm having problems.

On this stick, the PortableApps Platform is on there. The trouble is if I want to put an application on there that isn't in .PAF format, and it's just a ZIP file.

How do I then go about converting it (if necessary) so it can install with the other apps on there please?

Thanks.

I've just upgraded my laptop to a new i7 device running an SSD (up from i3 on regular harddrive) however {prtableapps platform test AGES (like 1 min!) to startup first time every day. On the old machine it would take about 20 secs - but on the new machine it is easily 3x slower

The progress bar is initially quite quick, and it then just stops for almost a minute, then just starts up without the progress bar completing.
What's going on and how can I fix it?

In the office some apps can't be updated, because our AntiVirus Solution denies the download.

Today GPU-Z was blocked.

If the updated tries to install an application, which installer download blocked, the updated shows an error and aborts updating, no matter how many apps are still to be updated.

Is there a chance to change this, to allow to continue - evt by user interaction?
