Hi Guys....

I just got the latest ClamAV portable app. and it is once again taking forever to get the virus signature updates - this happened the last time I got the program.

I'm using dsl lite with a 768kbps down speed, have used more than 5 hours and it still isn't done? My connection is just about the speed it's rated for!

Anyone have any ideas why? Thanx beforehand in case ya do ! :-)®

Hello!

I am trying to make a portable launcher for the wonderful game Age of Empires Gold.
But there is one slight problem that i would need some help with.
Because i get this error message when the launcher tries to start age of empires.

You know shortcuts, when you choose properties on them they have a field called Start in, in the "start in" field there is the path to the directory where the target file is located. The thing is that my age of empires launcher gets the same error message that you would get if you would have messed up the "start in" field in a shortcut to age of empires.

Please don't remove INI support. No offense, but I can't stand your directory layout ("App"... igh. I hate abbreviations), so I've created my own. If you take out the INI support, I'll have to revert to the standard layout. *shudder* I may actually stop updating the launchers if it meant I'd lose INI support.

Another problem with the standard layout is that it puts each of the launchers in a separate directory. You can't really combine various App/Data directories into single folders or you'd probably end up with file/folder name conflicts. I like having all my launchers in a single directory for easy access, which the INIs allow me to do.

I wrote a simple command line compiler for C#. It and the resulting program require .NET, but it's useful if the computer has it.

Hi guys,

Great site, great software.

I don't know if its been published before, but I was looking for a "Web Development" Suite of Portable Apps ... so I could work on things away from home.

I cobbled together a few of my favourites, and loaded up portable Firefox with my favourite web development extensions as well.

If you're interested in a copy, you can pick up a copy ---.

Ok I played around a little with RegRapper It is a nice little helper app.

The one alternative that I found that works great but requires admin rights on the machine is http://sanboxie.com

Is there any other options for the same type function but in any other reg helpers?

I have found a way to use any standalone dock launcher (such as RKLauncher http://home.cogeco.ca/~rklauncher/ or y'z dock http://www.majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=2790 ) but it is tedious.

In case you dont know what a dock launcher is, It's basically a program launcher that looks like the macOS launcher. It's a clean and efficient way to launch programs, and in my eyes, is a better alternative to the portable launching apps avaliable. The problems is that although RKLauncher and y'z dock are standalone applications, they have trouble using relative paths for shortcuts, rendering them useless as a portable app.

Help im trying to make portable universal extractor im have succesfully compiled it using Quick Port Template 1.1 which works but im trying to add some new code so it will also move the c:\uniextract.txt file it creates to portable uniextract's folder and then delete it from C:\. any ideas on making nsis reconizing the root of the C: hard drive

Hy.

I've got a litle problem, i'm using TrueCrypt to create a virtual drive that contains all the programs.
In order to have a longer lifespan of my already old USB pen, i've made a script that copies the virtual image to %temp% on the local computer, mounts it and starts PStart from that. When i close PStart, all info is saved, the image is unmounted and the image is copied back on the USB pen. (this way, the USB is accessed only 2 times/session, not a few hundred/thousands times when some programs write data to disk).

Now for the question.
For some reason, TrueCrypt (and a few other programs) don't like having the virtual image as "compressed" (you know, the "Compress" flag for NTFS files), so is there a way (a program, script or command) that can copy a file and uncheck that flag ? (so the file remains uncompressed, even if the %temp% folder is compressed). I can make that manually, but it's a pain in the ass to do that each and every time. I can also set the "%temp%" folder to be uncompressed on the computer i'm working on, but just in case i go to another computer, the "%temp%" folder might still be compressed.
