Utility Apps Support

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:

It seems the configuration of Ant Renamer and Renamer prevents them to run at the same time.

Is that intentional or just a bug by copying the template from one to another?

There is a folder "Sysinternals" and a file "tcpview.ini" in it at %USERPROFILE%\AppData.

Just downloaded the current version 0.95.1 Rev 2.
I really love CubicExplorer so much since it's lightning quick to search the directories, except for one very important function.

After a search for a particular file type, the VIEW function gets disabled; this kinda defeats the purpose of searching something. Say I search for JPG files, it will quickly show me the found files, but I cannot view the thumbnails, since that function will be automatically disabled/greyed. Is there any solution to this very important function?

Thanks.

When I tried to update this specific app (version 3.89 to 3.90), it gave me an error (a problem downloading the binaries from downloads.sysinternals.com). Manually downloading the file does work.

I also tried to download the ProcessMonitorPortable_3.90_online.paf.exe to try to do a "clean" installation and it also fails with the same error. Details given by the installer:

The application leaves a folder "Piriform" (which has a folder "Recuva" inside) in ProgramData.

I don't know what is going on there, but it seems to go wrong.
Maybe a crc wrong file?
Teamviewer like Google Chrome seems to elevate rights to do stuff I don't like.

The link for 'Learn more about PeaZip' points to an invalid URL. It should be peazip.com not peazip.org.

I have a persistent problem installing/upgrading Database Browser. It is cancelled with this message (translated from German):

"The downloaded file Database Browser is invalid and cannot be installed. Maybe the cause is an uncomplete download or a network problem. Please start the upgrade once again."

There is no problem with any other Portable App. I have no idea, what network problem could be adressed.

As of version 2.16.13, WinMerge now has support for settings stored in an INI file:

https://winmerge.org/docs/changelog.php?lang=en#winmerge-21613---2021-06-22
https://github.com/WinMerge/winmerge/issues/248

While, by default, it looks for an INI file next to the WinMergeU.exe file, you can also specify the INI file to use via command line:
