Passwords To Go

This should be an interesting idea since most portable app programs have this program, it would allow us to to store passwords, and use this passwords to securely access all the sites that we wanted.

Portable Java...maybe soon...ish

Submitted by FoxxEnoch on September 24, 2007 - 4:06pm

I think I have an idea onhow to run java from a portadrive but it keeps backfiring on me. I copied the registry settings for java into my template and I want to use a getroot command to change the drive letter in to the correct one and then write it to the registry. (it does the local backup and stuff too) Whenever I try to compile it, it says "writeregstr requires 4 parameters, got 5"

any ideas?

this could be used to change the settings file of a program to use the current drive letter too.

Link to the EPL (From Wikipedia): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eclipse_Public_License

Im a bit confused, I really wanna make Eclipse Portable (distributing Eclipse with a launcher), if it is illegal to distribute Eclipse with a launcher, I'll just make a launcher for it.

I tried 3 ways to create this software a portable for my usb-stick, so I can test my own website security when I´m on vacation for 2 months...

1) thinstall
2) Creating portable the traditional way with NSIS
3) and as last resort just copying the program folder to usb stick.

So result with these 3 methods, the program just gives me this error message:

NSIS 2.3

Submitted by Gph007 on September 21, 2007 - 12:39am

I have installed NSIS 2.3 and to test it I am trying to execute a portableapps script. I have tried to compile the examples that come with NSIS and they all work fine. I can not get a single portableapps script to compile. I have tried a lot of them and they all seem unable to find the executable and abort on Invalid command: FindProcDLL::FindProc. Here is part of the output from NSIS: (SumatraPDF) -- What am I doing wrong?

Changing directory to: "F:\PortableApps\SumatraPDFPortable\Other\SumatraPDFPortableSource"
