PortableApps.com Platform

Hi john,

is it currently possible to configure the position and size of the personal picture? I couldn't find any settings.

Kind regards,

Hi,

How about "adding shortcut to portableapps menu" feature

See following post

Is it possible to make a Windows Shortcut (EXE file with custom parameters) compatible with the PortableApps platform?

Like so many others, I have installed the Suite to a hard disk partition, and run the apps from there. Today, I was making a shortcut from my desktop to one of the apps, and I found myself wondering: when launching an app from a hard disk like this, is there any advantage (stability, speed, etc.) to using the *Portable.exe rather than the actual application executable, from its own subfolder beneath the "App" subfolder?

I'm betting that it doesn't make any difference, but I'd like a definitive answer.

Thanks.

When using my vista machine at home I do not have any problems with my portable app platform. When I use it at a library using Windows 7 I have trouble updating any of my apps. I get a message to update but on attempting the updates I get this error message "The download copy of [app name] is not valid and can not be installed. this could be due to an incomplete download or other network issue. Please try running the update again when complete". I just tried to update the portableApp.com platform on the Windows 7 machine and got the same error message.

Always when you start PortableApps 12.0.1.0 I get the following message: "Invalid image sitze". This message comes after the update from 11.2.0.0 to 12.0.1.0 and after a Reinistallation.

I use PortableApps in Windows XP and 8.1.Portable Apps 12.0.1.0 seems to be broken, Portable Apps 11.2.0.0 is top.

This text was translated with Google.

I'm not sure if this is a bug but I'm trying to get the Portableapps menu to close a couple of portable apps that I automatically start. The apps are "expresso" and "ditto". Every time I close the menu I'm presented with a pop up that says "please close the following apps 'expresso, ditto'". I then have to manually close the apps. Obviously this is not what I was expecting to happen I was hoping that it would close them automatically.
I'm currently running v12.0.1 and have gone through most of the betas.

Sorry, I don't find 12.0 "prettier". Is there any way to change that skin?

Missing checkboxes in "Get more Apps"

Is it OK that they lack the checkboxes? screenshot: http://goo.gl/CjrdtK

Also, Avast antivirus refused to download the update, so I had to disable it for a short time and updated manually with 7Zip.

Suggestion:
Introduce cancel all button so user can cancel all updates at one shot.
if more updates were there it is difficult to cancel one by one.
Provide pause the download. user can resume later.
After selecting the updates show another confirmation screen in which order updates are downloading.
Introduce multithreaded downloads.
Integrate downloads in grid/list view in one screen, so user can see the downloads in one shot
provide more columns update list.(Example download url,if any other information availble)
