Utility Apps Support

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.

The online installer for jportable 8 update 144 is not working for me. Each time I try running the installer it gives me a SendRequest error and never downloads anything.

Thanks

Can you please explain to me what exactly is the difference between these two WinMerge apps, so far as I can see, they are identical and have even the same description copy down to the letter but are attributed to two different people and one has an older last update date; suggesting it was forked at some point?

thank you,
Mike

Hi all,

I'm not able to update AutoRuns to v13.80. Every time I try to do so, I get the message, that the download was not possible.
Even when using the downloaded executable "AutorunsPortable_13.80_English_online.paf.exe", the same effect comes up: "The installer was unable to download autoruns".

Since I have a working internet connection, something else must be the problem. Any hints? Anyone experiencing the same thing?

SystemExplorer Portable 7.1.0.5359 - popup Information Window

Need your atention on one issue,

Each time I fly over the task icon, the popup Information Window is getting bigger.

See Screenshots:

I have Windows 10 Pro 64 bit, and believe there is a bug with Process Monitor Portable 3.33. This is a new, standalone installation (I am not using the Portable Apps Platform).

It concerns the "File system activity" component only; everything else seems to work fine. When running ProcMonPortable for the first time, things behave as expected. But if ProcMonPortable is closed and restarted, no file activity is recorded whatsoever, even if all filters are reset (or deleted!).

I need to manage the various PortableApps.com apps that I have saved in the cloud. What’s the best practice?

I think I figured out the sequence of events - and solved my problem as I was writing this.
- My computer is a 5 y/o Toshiba Satellite laptop with Windows 10 Creators Update, and my system is well maintained and updated. I have no other software problems.
- I installed the Kingsoft WPS PDF to Word Converter, it didn't work for me and I decided to uninstall it.
- I tried PortableApps / Revo Uninstaller to get rid of it, and it crashed trying to run the app's uninstaller.
- The uninstall not only failed, but Revo Uninstaller was gone from PortableApps.

I downloaded FastCopy Portable for the first time. The Malware-Scanner I'm using (Avira) reports the following on the related paf.exe-file:
Found: TR/Crypt.ZPACK.Gen
Description: The term 'TR' denotes a trojan horse that is able to spy out data, violate your privacy, or perform unwanted modifications to the system.
A generic detection routine designed to detect common family characteristics shared in several variants. This special detection routine was developed in order to detect unknown variants and will be enhanced continuously.

Any ideas?

the installation of the jdk portable never ends.
the last line displayed:
Create folder: E:\PortableApps\CommonFiles\JDK

at abt 90% all remains for ever apparently

anybody with same experience?
