Internet Apps Support

I used to use local installs of Putty with a private key on my USB drive. Now that this was released I'd like to move it all to my USB drive.

However, when saving the session, I have to select the location for my private key: H:\foo.ppk. If I plug my drive into another computer the drive letter may change.

I want to thank John for creating a PortableApp for PuTTY!

When I donated money to PortableApps (which I encourage all users of this wonderful service to do), John emailed me back personally. He thanked me for my donation, and asked if there was any particular improvement or app I would like to see. My only request was a Portable version of PuTTY.

Writing security code is difficult, and previous attempts to make PuTTY portable (in particular, portaPuTTY) modify the source. This makes me nervous, as I am not a programmer and I worry about what else may be modified.

I've been using portaPuTTY for all my portable PuTTY needs on my flash drive, as it does not store configuration and session information in the registry.

Is there any chance that portaPuTTY could be merged with PuTTY Portable, so configuration information is not written to the registry, but is stored in files on the flash drive?

Hello,

I use putty since long time on my computer as I make subscription to have servers for surf anonymously on web.

I was real happy that you did the portable version of putty, and I install it and configure properly, infact work perfectly.

Then I try to configure the portable firefox as I was did for my non portable firefox ( with the connection setting ), but I notice when I make all the procedure that the firefox portable refuse the connection.

It's stay any particular procedure to do with the portable firefox ?

does Putty support extended ASCII? if it does, does it need to be enabled or something?

edit

well, i got something to work by setting the translation to CP437, don't know if thats how it was meant to be done, but at least it seems to work at least

Edit 2

for some reason it doesn't save the above change, so i have to switch it every time i start a new session...any ideas?

Once i have entered a session, saved it and used it, then the next time I run putty the session is not there.

I checked the putty.reg file and upon exit is does contain my session, but after starting putty and exiting it has gone.

Am I missing something?

I guess this will be similar to portaputty (http://socialistsushi.com/portaputty) - which doesn't use the registry, so are you planning on introducing the other putty apps into the same distribution, or just sticking with putty?

I've been trying for the past 10 minutes to download this, but every time I try, Firefox Portable (2.0.0.2) crashes after I select the location to save the file to.

Are there any other ways to download this? Or should I try another browser?

Hello,

Is there a way to import the configuration from a non-portal installation of putty?

Thanks

I am aware of a similar thread here: https://portableapps.com/node/4993 , but I am looking for a different feature for the bosskey not mentioned. I love Miranda IM. but there is a bad crash when I try to send messages to people who are offline on aim so I forced to use Gaim. The problem is, I am looking for a Boss Key that Miranda has that instead of displaying an image that covers up Gaim to hide is, upon pressing the hot-key(HK) Gaim and all gaim IM windows, start tray dock tabs, and tray icons are removed from view.and upon pressing the HK again all IM windows and such reappear.

Hi...Ive found an annoyance in the new portable miranda version.
Whenever the blinking happens I cant double click on the miranda tray icon...I have to right click it so that I can see the miranda box. And when I logged out I was surprised when it still continues to blink.

Thanks
