Wise apps uninstalled by Windows Defender

Submitted by Herb_ on November 16, 2017 - 3:48am

All of a sudden since latest Windows 10 update The RegistryCleaner and the DiskCleaner were uninstalled by Defender without chance to provide an exception to them.
Had to disable Defender entirely to reinstall and run these both apps on 4 boxes.

I know from Malwarebytes that it tried to quarantine these apps too, but at least one could easily give an exception to them.

jPortable 152 Error

Submitted by Atreyu on November 13, 2017 - 12:06am

Each time I try installing I get a SendRequest Error just like the previous online installer. Nothing downloads and the installer just stops with the error.

Also, each time a new version of java is released my current portable java becomes disabled as if it checks for a new update each time I use it. Java will not work anymore until there is a new portable update and that can take weeks. Is there a way to disable jportable from checking for new versions and just continue to run with the one I have?

Create ISO file from external HD

Submitted by Floyd Winston on October 30, 2017 - 7:07pm

I have an external HD (bootable windows IDE) that I need to duplicate. I could order a drive duplicator but I only need a couple copies and it doesnt justify the expense. I was thinking I could burn an ISO file from the source, and burn the ISO on a blank drive.

On a mac, I could use the DD command
Ubuntu has a similar command tool built in
Windows has some 3rd party utilities, but I am not allowed/blocked from installing software on this PC

I made a bootable flash drive (Ubuntu) but I am locked out of the BIOS to change boot order and boot from a flash.

[Fixed] VeraCrypt Portable 1.21 - Translations missing!?!

Submitted by deti on October 19, 2017 - 3:34pm

Hi,
after the update to VeraCrypt Portable 1.21 the translations are missing. Only English is available under Settings => Languages ....
In the folder \PortableApps\VeraCryptPortable\App\VeraCrypt the old language files are stored (from 2016). Why are the new files not installed with the update like it does when I install the desktop version? And how can I fix this?
Thanks!
Deti

jPortable 8 Update 144

Submitted by jim1001 on October 7, 2017 - 12:04pm

As far as I can see I don't have jPortable installed. I don't have a folder for it and it doesn't appear in the launcher even with "Show advanced apps" ticked. So I'm not sure why the PortableApps Updater is telling me there are updates available for it. Can anyone advise? Is it required by some other portable app(s)?

ps: is there any way to search the forums?

Thanks.
