jPortable launcher and OpenJDKJRE64 does not work

Submitted by djnavas on November 11, 2019 - 12:48am

jPortable says: "jPortable launcher cannot be started. You may wish to re-install to fix this issue.
(ERROR: jPortable [https://PortableApps.com/jPortable] could not be found.)"

I wish to run Freeplane in 64 Windows 7, 64 bits. I have installed, jPortable Launcher and OpenJDKJRE64.
jPortable, lacks an executable.

jPortable Launcher cannot be started

Submitted by djc on October 21, 2019 - 6:20pm

Just installed jPortable Launcher and Java under my standard PortableApps directory, but when I invoke "jPortable Launcher" from the menu, this appears:

jPortable Launcher cannot be started. You may wish to re-install to fix this issue. (ERROR: jPortable [https://PortableApps.com/jPortable] could not be found).

But I did remove and re-install them.

What's the magic to use Java here? I want to run a .jar file I've been sent.

iobit not really portable

Submitted by choicevoice on September 9, 2019 - 6:05pm

i think iobit is writing to my disk. i have iobit defrag in portableapps (on my hard drive, not a usb).

i scanned my system for virus' the other day with dr. web cureit. and dr. web reported a pup. iobit is usually detected as a pup, so that was not unusual. but its location was:

c:\windows\system32\iobitsmartdefragextension.dll

it is possible i had iobit many years ago installed and this is a leftover from the uninstaller. so i thought i'd post it here so someone else could check if they have it as well.

Submitted by dave7 on August 26, 2019 - 8:17am

First post and totally new to this process so for give me if this is not the correct location for this question.
Is there a way to import someone's .reg file of putty session settings (full installed version) into the portable putty version that seems to use an i.ini file?
I searched this site and Google; and could not find an answer to this specific scenario.
Thank you

Typertask upgrade question

Submitted by shockeymoe on August 13, 2019 - 4:56pm

TyperTask is a godsend and I have used it, as well as the paid-for software VTask Studio, for almost a decade. Unfortunately the company Vista Software, Inc and the website vtaskstudio.com seem to have disappeared. I was pleasantly surprised to see an update for TyperTask but I am curious, how did the update come about while the software company responsible has folded?

Submitted by heinz57g on August 13, 2019 - 3:18pm

not sure what i did wrong, but i posted this a short while ago, only to find it vanished now. if it duplicates somewhere, please just remove one of them.

thanks - heinz -

*********************************************************************************
Virtual Volumes View has been here as version 1.3 for a long time - any reason why 1.4 of
december 2018 did not make it? any reservations?

find the prog extremely useful, and nothing else on the market that rivals it. almost a hidden gem.
