Download error Chrome Dev very often

Submitted by hjok on November 20, 2018 - 10:18am

Hello,

I get almost always a download error message when I try to update Chrome Dev. Since several days the following:

Downloadfehler: File Not Found (404) bei Datei http://portableapps.com/redirect/?s=p&a=GoogleChromePortableDev&d=sfpa&w...

I have manually download the latest version 'GoogleChromePortableDev_72.0.3610.2_online.paf.exe' from the server.

Greetings, hjok

Submitted by doop on October 29, 2018 - 3:15pm

hi,

using windows 10 x64

installed the newest portable version of free internet download manager. and it has some how forced .torrents to be associated with it. i have changed the option with in fdm but when you try to click the apply/ok button it shows an admin ico, you click ok and nothing happens it is still associated with .torrents

i have tried going to files associations in windows 10. choose default apps by file type and .torrent is not on the list?

Should the new "Allow Chrome sign-in" setting be kept as on?

Submitted by lwc on October 19, 2018 - 3:12am

Chrome v70 introduces a new controversial setting, "Allow Chrome sign-in", which Chrome Portable leaves as "on".

By turning this off, you can sign in to Google sites like Gmail without signing in to Chrome

When it's on, it's possible it only works in non Incognito mode.

Also, there's another setting, "Get Google smarts in Chrome" ("Sync and personalize Chrome across your devices"), which is disabled by default, and maybe they cancel each other out anyway, but you have to know for sure.

Hi everyone,

I would like to know if you were OK if I could give (and maybe update) the Chromium Stable Browser? As it has been retired of PortableApps, because it was not upgraded still v61, so I found a continuous official project and created a PortableApps format with both 32 and 64 bits versions.
I tested it at home and it works as the old 61 version, but in v69. The PAF exe can update the old one you 'maybe' still have in your PA dir.

Opera crash on startup

Submitted by aben on September 27, 2018 - 6:34am

I'm having issues with Opera crashing with the error "The application was unable to start correctly 0xc000007b".
Opera was installed using the portableapps menu (installed the paf.exe).
Portable apps version is 15.02 on Win10 x64 1803. Potplayer also gives the same problem.

Any ideas?

Chrome PA only as installer? No offline package any more?

Submitted by pstein on September 14, 2018 - 11:57am

In the past Chrome was released as full portable offline installer. See here:

Since v69 only an installer is available. See here:

I hate installers which (down)load additional stuff from remote servers.
So I prefer a full package.
