PROOF THAT IT WORKS:

UPDATES:
February 03, 2021 - This method no longer works. I had a standalone Firefox Portable browser that was up-to-date and this method was working just fine. But as soon as I did a fresh install of the same portable browser, it quit working. So in the end, I had to use PortableApps.com Platform. I am glad that I did. It makes things a lot easier. But for those people who like tweaking things and learning new stuff, maybe you can use the following information for something else.

I have a bunch of portableapps that I store on a network path so that I don't have to install the same program over on each computer. Most of the programs work fine when accessed via UNC path (\\server\path) but for some reason KVIrc freaks out, tries to load some config from c: and when it can't it is completely unusable. I have to map a network drive and then start KVIrc from the network drive (i.e. x:\portableapps\KVircPortable\kvircportable.exe), at which point it functions perfectly fine.

Why is this, and what can be done to fix it?

If I have the Rockstar Games launcher running, I will receive an error when I try to launch Opera Portable, saying that it is already running. If I close the Rockstar Launcher, I can then open Opera Portable. If I open Opera first, I can then open the Rockstar Launcher without any conflicts after that as long as I don't close and reopen Opera.

Does this mean the Rockstar Launcher is built upon Opera Portable? Or maybe just regular Opera? It's kinda weird, whatever the cause!

Cheers!

I've been using GoogleChromePortable (multiple instances) for years now with no issues, updating regularly. The latest update to 86 is causing all of my instances to wipe all cookies pretty regularly (multiple times a day often) after restart. A bit frustrating that I lost all cookies on all instances!

Any thoughts on what is causing this?

I recently went the portable route with PortableApps because I was tried of having to save my data and transport it from computer to computer. I know I can log into things but sometimes I'm not on my machine and I don't want to log into things. So I now have ChromePortable, FireFoxPortable and OperaGXPortable.

Hello!

I managed to set up portable passwords (GoogleChromePortable.ini with proper settings near the Launcher) but I have an issue with it. Before I made this settings there were 4 passwords stored in Chrome. After adding the portable passwords I try to add another, 5th password. It stores fine until I run Chrome under another OS. After Chrome starts I go to the settings and see this message

Some settings were reset

I forgot what it actually does and whether there is some way to control that latter in the install process but the first prompt upon running say GoogleChromePortable_68.0.3440.84_online.paf.exe is downright scary. I don't want to run any risk of the thing even thinking about "updating" anything - ever. I just want it to park all it's bits into whatever folder I give it - no less and no more.

Is there a command line switch or something?

I am plagued by getting 'assertion failures' (image posted at https://itproxy.uk/misc/assertfail.jpg) when trying to use Kitty. It can happen constantly, or occasionally, when I'm trying to visit websites using Firefox Portable (currently v77.0.1) on a W10 PC, via Kitty Portable (v0.74.0.2) through freeSSHd (v1.3.1) installed on a W10 PC.

I'm using chrome 84.0.4147.10 (64-bit) on an usb stick ánd on my (work) laptop.
when running chrome from my usb stick, it prevents PortableApp Menu from shutting down? (by clicking on the X down right))
(error is a pop up "the following portable apps are stil running: chrome shut down all portable apps")
Does anyone else have this problem?
kind regards, erik jan

I have Chrome on a thumb-drive with multiple profiles and I would like to save the Usernames and Passwords within Chrome Portable. Any computer I put the thumb-drive into and launch Chrome always saves the Username and Password to the computer. I did follow the instructions on how to change the ini file to save passwords in Chrome but it does not work. Any ideas?
