Any ideas?

Something wrong with apps and interface icons in Windows 10 after update to Platform 15 — all icons and main window without anti-aliasing.

Uninstall consistently fails

Submitted by ajax on April 27, 2018 - 3:19pm

It seems that whenever I try to uninstall an app it fails. There is not much to say except that when uninstall is selected it spends a little bit of time spinning its' wheels and then displays a dialogue box that says "Unable to uninstall appname" where appname corresponds to the name of the portableapp for which uninstall was selected.

Submitted by webfork on April 22, 2018 - 7:22pm

Update: I retested and it turns out this was an issue on my side. Updating the heading.

Setup: Win7x32, Platform version: 14.4.3

Background: was having an issue with the Start.exe process so I tried re-downloading the platform installer. There were a lot of programs under the
\PortableApps folder.

Steps:

1. Download the program and launch
2. Save to external drive (in this case J:\)

Defect: contents of Portable apps subfolder J:\PortableApps were deleted

Some Way To Uninstall PA Plugins?

Submitted by NotMine on April 21, 2018 - 2:20pm

Is there some way to uninstall unwanted Portable Apps plugins, like the GNUPG plugin (v2.26?) in the most recent update?

I can look through the entire PA menu system and not find a single reference to PA plugins. That's where I would normally look to find some PA apps that I want to remove.

I looked through the PA folder structure on my SSD and did not see any obvious indications of te PA GNUPG plugin being installed anywhere. I did not do any "file by file" searching; Windows isn't exactly friendly like Unix or Linux when that needs to be done.

USB is Write Protected

Submitted by Soumy on April 8, 2018 - 10:44am

My USB is Lexar 32gb, with NTFS fs and no lock switch. After I installed the platform (14.4.3), it was working for a little while. Suddenly, when I try to exit, it said something like "Unable to write to E://PortableApps/PortableAppsMenu/Data/PortableAppsMenu" or something like that. After that, all the files on my usb are write protected, and I don't seem to have the control over it, as Nothing seems to have worked.

[Fixed] Unable to update apps via PortableApps.com Platform 14.4.3

Some users are experiencing issues updating apps via the current stable platform release. The error given will be similar to:

"Unable to download the file. This could be due to a proxy or network issue or the hosting server not permitting downloads from your location file. File:..."

This issue will require some investigation to solve due to the fact that the updater/app store uses the built-in Windows internet components to handle downloads. As such, we likely have a few issues to work on fixing.

Conflict of access with firefox dektop when a portable version already launched

Submitted by makni on March 29, 2018 - 12:46pm

I use a portable Firefox version ESR 52.2.0, and I already configured this version in mono instance. when I try to access a web page with the Firefox desktop version, a tab on the portable version is displayed.
is there any solution that disable the display of a firefox Desktop tab on the firefox portable version knowing that I want to keep the configuration in mono instance of the portable version that I use?
