PortableApps.com Platform

~
I just did a restore from a backup last night and instead of OVERWRITING what was in there, it created DUPLICATES of old files and folders that were already in there, doubling the space used on the usb drive. Old files that I have either updated or no longer want.

I basically had to reformat the usb to clear everything out that was in there and essentially install it blank (except for the portable app itself) and start all over again.

That's not a proper restore. A restore should overwrite everything and delete what's not in the 7-zip backup, itself.

Hello. I sadly can't download "LibreWolf Portabble" as the .exe can't be found:

Please fix if possible, thanks.

I hesitaed for a long time to start using the PortableApps platform, although I have used portable apps for a good number of years, but the platform eventually conviced me, so now I just love it!
I have e number of email ccounts/profiles, one personal and one for a club I manage. Can I have multiple instances of the PortableApps platform - of course on diferent drives - so to keep my accounts end emails better organized?

How to find and download an older version of some portable app, in my case an older portable Opera browser version? Doesn't portableapps.com have this feature?

has been issued the v 5.0 qbittorrent portable?
and you are able to enable search plugins...i've the latests 4.6.7 and i have lost all of my search plugins...
thxs in adv.
cheers

Hello all,

I have at least one application (GhostScript), shown as installed on the 'Get more Apps' dialogue, which is not in the PortableApps folder (Windows10).
How can this be corrected, and how can the actually installed apps be checked manually against the supposedly installed app list?

Thanks and Best Regards,

David D.

**** I believe I have found the 'issue'!

Hi, is there a way to run portableapps inside Windows native sandbox? I read the documentation (link below) and could not understand what to do. Has anyone done it and happy to share the *.wsb config file?

Hi PortableApps,

I’m seeking assistance with configuring PortableApps to properly display executable files located in specific directories. I’m having issues with the PortableApps platform not recognizing and displaying executables that are located in subdirectories.

Good morning:

Mozilla released Firefox 130 on Sep 03. As of today there is no Portable app. Has this been overlooked or is there a problem?

thanks
Norbert

Hello,
I'd like to report a massive issue. Here is a quick explanation: PA Platform allows adding your own portable apps.
So I had a directory with a lot of exe. I noticed an app I was no longer using and instead of manually deleting the file, in a moment of inattention, I used the uninstall option from PA. Terrible mistake. Well, without any warning, it just deleted my entire personal collection of apps. I find it insane there is no warning nor backup before such action takes place.
