[Closed] Google Chrome Portable (and Local) resets extensions and settings when profile moved between machines

As of recent releases, Google Chrome's settings are now locked to a given PC with a generated signature on the settings files. This affects the portable version as you move between PCs either via removable drive or via cloud drive. It also affects the local version if you move your profile as part of restoring a backup from one PC to another or upgrading to a new PC and copying your profile over.

[Fixed] Pidgin Spellchecker Add To Dictionary Saves Outside Portable Directory

Submitted by SW-PA-2014 on September 23, 2014 - 2:26pm

The Enchant spellchecker is saving any unknown dictionary words that are added to the dictionary outside the portable directory. It's placing the added words inside the "Local Settings / AppData" directory for the current user, under the sub-directory "enchant".

FileZilla: Can I have 3.9.0.1 - without auto-update (for my XPs) installed along side the newer version?

Submitted by Bruce Huber on September 18, 2014 - 11:02am

I still plug into some XP machines.

Is there anyway that I can have FileZilla ver. 3.9.0.1 or 3.8.x (for my XPs) installed along side the newer FileZilla version that will no longer run on XP?

And if so, is there any way to disable the auto-update on the "XP" version so that it "stays" on my thumb drive?

Thanks!

Filezilla's installer now includes malware... suggest boycott.

To be absolutely clear I have no reason to think Filezilla Portable has been directly effected.

That said, starting with 3.9.0.5 Filezilla claims that updates to the next version can not be done automatically and directs users to download the installer from sourceforge... the installer for which is laden with malware and scamware which attempts to trick users into installing it.

Bootable Putty Live

Submitted by phifer2088 on August 14, 2014 - 2:10pm

Hello,

I am looking for a solution for a small boot-able image that provides putty or similar software. I would like to boot a small laptop off a thumb drive and only provide telnet software once booted to program routers and switches. Thank you in advance.

[Closed] FileZillaPortable_3.9.0.2 does not support Windows XP

Submitted by Portyta on August 4, 2014 - 5:35am

FileZillaPortable_3.9.0.2.paf.exe unpacks fine.

Then, upon execution of FileZillaPortable.exe, the splash screen appears as usual, but the GUI does not start. Nor is there any related process shown in the Windows Manager after the splash screen disappears.

Version 3.9.0.1 starts without problems.

Anyone else experiencing the problem?

FileZilla: Language files problem with v.3.9.0.1

Submitted by mgagnonlv on July 28, 2014 - 11:16am

Hello,

I just recently checked my updates and updated Filezilla from v. 3.8.x to the latest, 3.9.0.1. My preferences were to use it in my "default system language", i.e. French, and things worked correctly before the version update. I did the update through the semi-automatic menu option: Check for updates.
