PortableApps.com Platform

Hye,

When plugging my portableapps key this morning, I run into a little bug.

When trying to look at smallest update, I saw that it's sorted in a strange way. Instead of sorting from smallest to highest, it's sorted from smallest to highest in each number sized. 1Mo to 1Go for example and then 2Mo to 2Go.... See the screenshot linked in this message.

Hello -
I have a proprietary program (i.e. not open-source) that I would like to use with PortableApps USB stick. Are there any licensing costs associated with this?
Thank you.

I just found the function "Backup", great!
It really should be promoted!

But whynot just maybe make auto 7z if max?
I mean the max in itself doesn't do anything really for size.
Or recommend 7z instead, as it's actually less slow than max while much better compression!

I tried it with "App Data" (as the exe:s I can get anytime).
My data is 99.9% ThunderBird mails, so YMMV.
System: i7-2600-3.40GHz, 8G RAM, 64b W7.

I recently blew my hard drive away while retaining all my data (thank you windows 10, this is a GREAT feature) however, my portable apps no longer starts when windows starts up - i have looked at the options and advanced settings and can't seem to find a way to repair this without adding to the actual startup folder - is that the only fix? or is there a way to "repair" this "install" on my local drive?
or will a simple "reinstall" of the suite fix this? I don't want to overwrite anything else.

Hello -
Will portableapps work on computers with Enterprise W7 that: (1) only permits document retrieval from USB sticks; (2) do not permit installation of applications; and (3) do not have "recycle bin" features (i.e. you cannot delete files without sysadmin privileges).
Thanks.

Just wondering if anyone has experienced this problem? AVG is telling me that PortableApps.com_Platorm_Setup_14.4.1.paf.exe file is signed with a broken digital signature, issued by: Rare Ideas. Severity: Message, State: Notification.

Is there any way to stop PortableApps from minimizing when out of focus?

I didn't see an option to stop it.

P.S. I also couldn't find a way to search the forums (odd) even after I'd disabled all popup blockers for portableapps.com, even whitelisted the site...did I miss something?

Hello,

first of all: I really love Portable Apps and use them everyday.

The Problem:
I open several Apps each morning in a row. The point is that the platform always minimizes itself
after clicking the first App. So I need to click on the PA-Button to pop up again to open the next App.

My solution to this problem is to program a keyboard key (maybe ctrl) so if you hold it while PA Platform is "popped up",
you can click on as many Apps as you want, without that the Platform minimizes each time.

Can this be programmed?

I've noticed that for the past couple versions of the PortableApps Platform that once you click the exit button it takes over 2 min. for the Platform to exit.

Current version of Foxit Reader 8.2.1.6871. Current version of Foxit Reader Portable 8.1.1.1015.

Please update the portable version.
