PortableApps.com Platform

When attempting to uninstall GnuCash Portable the subject message is displayed in a dialogue box. The reason for uninstalling Gnucash is that it won't start. Gnucash would start before it was updated earlier this month (12/2016).

Hi,
I have had no problems by updating portable apps before but now there are errors all the time! The errors like that: Redirection (302). What is it?

Hello!

Could you please make application lists for server and client in this way:
1) Server have a list of application with all needed information about them
2) Client have it's own list of application from last synchronization with server
3) Client have his unique list of installed applications
4) Client loads newer list of applications, or uses the old one - from last synchronization
5) Client compares both his lists to know what he can update or install

I'm using folder customization for faster folder visual location, so I dedicate "appicon.ico" to be folder icon for every "AppNamePortable" folder.
In that folder windows creates "desktop.ini" file with "hidden" and "system" attributes, but it is deleted by installer whenever I update application.
It is not deleted if in "installer.ini" is statement:

[FilesToPreserve]
File1=desktop.ini

Hello,

Does Portable Apps Platform, scan additional directory / directories for other portable apps?

I have a few non open source apps like CCleanerPortable, etc. These apps are not updated by the portable apps updater and I have to manually update them from time to time. Some apps like WSCCPortable update them selves from the app itself. And some tools are single exe like Microsoft Spy++, WiFi2Hotspot, WMI Explorer etc.

I would like to keep them in separate directories for maintenance purposes.

I recently installed Portable apps to my DropBox folder. This has worked well. However, I then decided that this was a waste of space that I was paying for and there is lots of space in my employer supplied OneDrive for Business folder. I have now copied everything over (drag-and-drop) and it is syncing. Unfortunately, I get the error that OD4B does not like the file name "Default%20Settings" in the folder "PortableApps/KittyPortable/Data/Sessions". I assume the problem is the % in the name.

The instruction here is not working: https://portableapps.com/support/platform#addingotherapps

See screenshot here: http://imgur.com/a/6ZmVp -> apps are where they are supposed to be, as instructed above, but how ever much I select "Apps | Refresh App Icons", the apps do not appear. Restarting PortableApps and booting don't help either.

I am thinking of switching to the Platform proper. Currently, I download and install each PortableApps.com application individually. I am looking to solve two wishes by switching to the full platform.

I use the PortableApps.com Platform mainly to use fonts without Administrator privileges, as well as a few minor games. As this is the only use for me, I have no use for getting new apps most of the time. However, the Platform asks me about new apps every startup. Is there any way to disable the process and only ask about new apps when I tell it to?

Thanks

Good day,

I have installed PA on my laptop.

If I want to copy them to my desktop, do I simply copy and paste the "D:\PortableApps" folder ?

Thank you.
