PortableApps.com Platform

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.

I have difficulty unmounting/removing my flash stick. It's a Kingston Digital 64 GB Data Traveler SE9 G2 USB 3.0 Flash Drive.

On my Windows 10 machine, whenever I try to remove it, it always says that it can't until I stop some process, but never tells me what that is. However, if I close Chrome, Firefox, and sometimes Opera (yes, I'm running all of them, and not PortableApps), then, and only then, can I remove the flash stick.

Is there a way to disable the unexpected DLL check for certain apps? After the latest platform update, Audacity won't start because I put lame_enc.dll into the AudacityPortable directory. This file is required for exporting MP3s from Audacity.

Dear All,

it may be related with special "corporate policies" which apply definitely to my hardware used mainly with PortableApps, but I'm facing an annoying issue. First of all, my configuration:
- Dell Lattitude E5570 w/ Intel i5-6300U @ 2.4 GHz / 16 GB RAM, full touch support
- Windows 8.1 Enterprise x64, german locales
- PortableApps 14.4
- Kaspersky Endpoint Security 10 v10.2.4.674
- PortableApps Installation Folder: %UserProfile%/Tools/PortableApps

I am using the PortableApps platform on Windows not be portable but to keep all my data in one well-defined place (on drive D:\). This includes the data eclusively used by the apps (e. g. user profile data of Chrome).

I'm getting the following error when trying to update:

"Unable to connect to PortableApps.com to retrieve portable apps. Please try again later. [Open Internet Error]."

Here's what I've tried:

1) Allowing the platform and updater through my firewall.
2) Enabling it in my other security software.
3) Changing the connection settings from "Automatic" to "Direct Connection (No Proxy)."

Oddly, as I was posting this, the app froze and I couldn't close it so I'm not sure what that's about.

I'd appreciate your help.

Thank you.
