PortableApps.com Menu, Backup and Platform/Suite installer.

Can I install the platform in the cloud but use it as if it were installed on an usb-stick?

Hello,
I was wondering whether there is a way of installing the Portableapps platform temporarily on my work computer, from the cloud, in a way which would offer privacy akin to that offered by using a usb-stick?
I do not want to download the Portableapps from the cloud onto my work computer, because it is not private. I only wish to use the apps on a temporary basis, and to be able to leave no trace after I finish.
With an usb-stick, you just plug it in and take it out when you finish, nothing is left on the computer.

Unattended updater for main app and all portable apps installed

Hello,

I would like to know if there is a way to run updates for the main application and all portable apps within, in an unattended way (without user interaction)).

I would like to create a windows task that will update the main application and all portable apps installed to their latest version that will run overnight. After all the updates are installed application should close.

I’m having a problem where every time I exit the settings, a Windows Explorer window pops up. This window is blank and I have to right click on it and X it out to get it to close . The window that pops up is just a blank white window or folder. Does anybody know what’s causing this?

Yes the program in question is the PortableApps Launcher - Taking up to 5 minutes or longer to finish loading - installed on Local Hard Drive

If anyone has an idea on how to speed things up please let me know, it takes up to 5 minutes or longer, I've known this to be similar with some other Open Source Programs.

Thank for ALL YOU DO; THIS IS A VALUABLE RESOURCE AND KEEPS THE INTER NET TO HOW IT WAS ALWAYS MEANT TO BE!

The program does not fully save the state? Or launcher changes settings.

For the study, I am trying to make the program Process Monitor portable. (For information, its installation cannot be downloaded from the PA site, there is an error.)
I save the registry settings. My lancher:
[Launch]
ProgramExecutable=ProcessMonitor\Procmon.exe

[Activate]
Registry=true

[RegistryKeys]
ProcessMonitor_portable=HKCU\Software\Sysinternals\Process Monitor
