Utility Apps Support

im trying to install and use the software on my usb device and I get the error that the program is not a supported archive

Since installing, deleting & re-installing, 7-Zip Portable it seems the 7-Zip splash screen will not go away. It has also caused the splash screen for Portable Firefox to take a minute, or more, to go away. The app seems to work well I just can't see behind the splash screen & it stays on top. I deleted it in the hopes the problem would go away but to no avail. Any ideas would be appreciated.

Follow-up

Is this a human error or does 7-Zip Portable leave registry entries behind? By searching in my registry, 7-Zip shows up under HKEY_CURRENT_USER --> Software

How can I install this 7-zip portable and other apps on a Sandisk U3 USB stick. I guess the set up file for a U3 application has a u3p extension...

It would be great if there was an option to use Eraser Portable to wipe all 7z folders under %tmp%. Just deleting it would be OK too.

Hi,
Is it possible to make a portable version of that beta?
thanks!

Don't know if this has been brought up before but if you want to lose a ton of space then delete all the txt files in the Lang folder leaving only the language you use and the en.ttt. This will save about 840K*.

7zip offers a function of protecting an archive with a password.

Is that a - really - secure way of protecting files ?

Hi there!

I have currently installed 7-Zip portable on my HD (soon to be on my new Cruzer Titanium) and whenever I run 7-zipPortable.exe, 7-Zip starts, but always with the standard settings. I change something, i.e. the language, close 7-Zip, restart it and it has reverted to the original settings. Same for the columns, window position, etc.

I have 7-Zip installed on my computer as well, could that interfere? Or maybe there are certain files that might be write-protected?

Any help appreciated!

Helge.

i checked the support page. portable works with 95 and 98 etc. but, does portable work with windows mobile 5.0 or windows ce (windows for portable) ? thanks (or can e-mail me at pnfx44a@aol.com)
