Autoruns Portable 14.09 Rev 2 - old version for Windows 7

Submitted by AbsolutelyRandom on November 9, 2022 - 3:48pm

I've just noticed that Rev 2 update caused to use an older version of Autoruns (13.1) on my Windows 7 x64. I have been using v14 with no issues so far. Before the Rev2 update, I wasn't even aware that the app dropped support for older OS. Is it really necessary for Win 7 to use the older version? I really miss the dark mode which was introduced in v14.

Submitted by AbsolutelyRandom on November 9, 2022 - 2:47pm

I've just downloaded and installed the latest update for TCPView. Previously I was using Rev 2 which worked fine. With Rev 3 I get an error message at launch: "TCPView Portable cannot be started. You may wish to re-install to fix this issue. (ERROR: App\TCPView\TCPView64.exe could not be found)".
My OS is Windows 7 x64.

Process Explorer 17.0 will not install

Submitted by mrw2day on November 5, 2022 - 11:35am

I had the previous Process Explorer 16.x.x installed but I have tried upgrade to 17.0 and at the end of the installation I get a warning that the download is not valid. I download the PE 17.0 paf.exe directly and get same results. I uninstalled my 16.x.x version and attempt fresh install of PE 17.0 and get same result. I tried reinstalling version 16.x.x and get the same message.

I copied version 16.x.x from a backup into the portableapps folder and it opens fine.

I am running windows 10 64bit and it is up to date.

RBTray don't work

Submitted by Craftsman on October 27, 2022 - 9:46am

Hello
I updated RBTray today and the hotkeys for minimizing the WIN-ALT-DOWN ARROW window stopped working for me.
Used the old version for a couple of years. Can I somehow roll back the update? Is there a list of versions of this program in portableapps somewhere?

I tried to download from github, but those versions also do not turn off by WIN-ALT-DOWN ARROW.

i want to start EverythingPortable as a service and clicked accordingly in the Erverything interface. And indeed the service is started.

But if I try to search something and click on EverythingPortable in the Launcher to open the interface I get an Error saying that an insance of Everything is already running.

When I clkick ...\App\Everything\Everything.exe or Everything64.exe durectly it works .

Is this a configuration problem of sorts ?

Thanks a lot !

Win 11 Freecommander should have a setting for the settings directory

Submitted by NorbertK on September 14, 2022 - 5:26am

Hello all,

i have Freecommander installed in Portableapps and the config lives in the settings subdirectory

C:\.... \PortableApps\FreeCommanderPortable\Data\settings , everything is fine .

When I start FreecommanderPortable.exe with a shortcut everything is fine ( because of the startdirectory C:\.... \PortableApps\FreeCommanderPortable)

But when I start FreeCommanderPortable from the Win 11 Taskbar it does not load its confguration.

This can be corrected with the following setting:
