Rufus 4.2 does not clean temporary files

Submitted by Dealx on August 3, 2023 - 5:38pm

Each time Rufus 4.2 is started, RufXXXX.tmp (language messages, >1M) is created in app directory and not deleted once Rufus is closed.
Also reproducible with original rufus-4.2p.exe file, without PortableApps environment. Definitely a Rufus bug, not a PortableApps one.
So, if Rufus 4.2 is started N times, then N+ megabytes is occupied in Rufus app directory.
Not reproducible with Rufus 4.1 or older.

How to show up an Start-Icon on Main-page, from 3rd-party Software?

Submitted by Pberlin on June 16, 2023 - 3:18pm

Good Evening,

short Time ago I'd downloaded and installed the Stick-Version of my Favorite Banking-Software, Wiso Mein Geld.
I has installed itself in the Main-Folder, not X:\PortableApps, the Reason is unknown.

My Problem is: how I create an Start-Icon in the Main-Menu, without browsing manually to C:\WISO Mein Geld ??

It seems, I don't understand this system, Sorry for that!

Thanks and Kind Regards

jPortable Launcher parameter problem. Please help! TIA

Submitted by An Unused Username on April 28, 2023 - 1:24pm

Using jPortable Launcher and jPortable JRE and it works with other jar files. However, I have a particular jar that needs to be told what other file to use for its purposes upon launch. So, in the same folder as that jar I put thenameofthe.jar.portable.ini and changed "thenameofthe" to the name of the jar. I then edited the ini and on the AdditionalParamaters= line added the name of the other file that the jar needs to use. What should happen is the jar then accesses that other file, runs a conversion on it, then saves the output to the final converted file. But, that's not happening...
