PortableApps.com Platform

Since updating to version 14.2 the theme which I have changed PortableApps to is not saving. I move between two different computers frequently throughout the day, my personalization settings are not traversing the two computers or saving between moves. PortableApps keeps starting the the default grey theme no matter which machine it is starting on.

It is also continuously bringing up the 14.2 update notes and donation request each time PA starts.

Any ideas?

Hi all,

I'm looking to use PortableApps to allow my end users to be able to run fonts without the need to keep coming to me asking me to install them. I know PA can do this and I'm keen to deploy but I don't want the users to be able to download and run apps, bit of a conundrum I know considering it is what PA does!

So my question is:

Am I missing an option to disable App installation or is that well beyond the scope? Alternatively I have deliberately made the connection settings wrong so it can't connect but of course this throws an error message.

I checked for Portable Apps updates today. The updater reported that there was an update for PortableApps Platform 14.2 and it's 4MB in size.

Fine. Update it. I have never had problems with this Portable App in the past.

The updater downloads and then automatically starts the installation process.

It is just a matter of seconds and then I get this error:

Window Title: NSIS Error
Window Text: (X) Error launching installer

Hello,

i am thinking of an command Line Switch for Start.exe to Update PortableApps Apps in the background.

The idea behind:
Bring PortableApps in Autostart and let all APPS beeing updated automatically.

The situation now:
Every time i start PortableApps it's asking me for updates. This can be avoided...

kindly regards
Wolfgang

Is it possible to run the portable applications from the OneDrive online in a browser?

How can I configure the PortableApps Platform for autorun by inserting the USB-Drive?

Lately, when I've tried running the backup function from the PortableApps menu option, it starts running but never completes. I eventually kill the process, which seems to tend to leave some sort of corruption on my flash drive, necessitating the running of chkdsk on the drive to fix any errors.

Platforms: Windows 10 (at home) and Window 7 (at work) - both never complete.
Drive: 64GB Silicon-Power USB3 with about 43GB used.
Backup options: Complete, backup directory on C: drive, 7z format, Show details selected (also fails to complete with Show details deselected).

Hi,

I got an error message since I moved from PortableApps.com Platform version 11.2 to version 14.1. I am using Windows 7 64 bits. My portable apps are on a USB keys (USB 2.0, 32Gb; USB 3.0, 16Gb; USB 3.0, 64Gb). On the 64Gb key, the version 14,1 was directly installed, no upgrades. Note however that this error doesn't block the use of the all PortableApps keys. The results when I do the start is :
1) Error windows 'PortableApps.com Platform' appears
Message: "The specified module could not be found, ClassID: {56FDF344-FD6D-11D0-958A-006097C9A090}.

Hi everyone

I would like to make an encrypted boot USB drive with Portable Apps. So that if I lose the drive it cant be accessed by anyone.
Ive searched around and cant find a way to do this. I have tried installing PA on my drive and then encrypting it but cant figure this out either.
Sorry to be such a noobie!

Any tips gratefully received

Thanks very much

I am using windows 8, 63 bit with the portable app installed in a folder on the desktop and is a brand new version created on 14.1 with exe disabled and firewall/antivirus running. When trying to install the apps from store it says successful and completed but the apps do not appear anywhere on the computer or in the portable apps menu. The manually downloaded apps crash after booting the app. Currently am using the files as bat due to problems with security settings with the exe.
