Miranda: Problems with version 0.6.8

Submitted by Stapleated on March 15, 2007 - 7:08pm

At first, the portable launcher wouldn't load Miranda. I ran the program by running just the miranda32.exe from the App\miranda directory. I tried to connect to a Jabber server, and then it closed completely. Now, Miranda will open from the launcher from the menu, but closes after I log on to a Jabber server.

Any ideas/suggestions?

PuTTY: Problems recompiling

Hello,
I tried recompiling the portable app launcher for this from the source included but NSIS gives me errors, see output below:

PuTTY: Short Session List

Submitted by Paul Taylor on March 9, 2007 - 11:33am

I'm new to PortablePuTTy, but a long-time user of native PuTTy.
I have 130+ Sessions in the registry (Windows XP).

I've exported the Sessions and appended to the putty.reg file
for PortablePuTTy, however when it is initially fired up,
only a small (variable number 1-20) of the session are visible
as 'Saved Sessions'.

Curiously if I start second/subsequent PortablePuTTy sessions
up a complete list is available.

Any suggestions ?

Pidgin: Last position

Submitted by powerjamer4ever on March 9, 2007 - 12:42am

Notice that Gaim Portable would remember the last position.
First used Gaim Portable on a wide screen PC. shifted the window to the top right.

then moved my USB to a laptop

started Gaim Portable.
it appeared to be out of the screen of my laptop

Since Gaim Portable is portable, maybe it should dynamically position itself to be within the screen area instead of the previous position.

Pidgin: settings, usernames and passwords deleted

Submitted by guestt on March 8, 2007 - 11:02am

Ok ,this might sound stupid but I am sure I am not. Smile

I don`t know exactly why but it`s true. I am using portableapps on my harddisk (d:\...) aswell too. If I format c:\ and reinstall windows then my accounts and passwords are not longer saved in portable gaim.

The otr files are deleted aswell. But gaim is still startable...

I am almost sure you won`t belive me. I guess gaim will delete the settings on gaim`s first start on new system. Perhaps it`s not portable gaim`s failure, but otr`s.

PuTTY: Version number

Submitted by jacksont3 on March 6, 2007 - 2:21pm

The current version number should be 0.59, not 0.5.9.

Is there any way to get PuTTY Portable to understand that, if the USB drive
is write-protected, I don't want anything written on it, and it shouldn't
bother to ask? It works quite well, except for that.

Thanks.
