Portable App Development

Hi,

I use the PortableApps Platform since years and since years mostly with the keyboard.
Since ever I can remember, the menus and the context menus open, if initiated with the keyboard, at the position of the mouse pointer, not at the position of a list item of the apps list, not at the position of the "Apps", "Backup", "Options", etc. "menu buttons".

Please consider to change the position of the menus opened using the keyboard, to be context, not mouse pointer related.

Thanks in advance!

Best regards,

Since We can have both 32 and 64 bit versions of Java installed in the CommonFiles I thought it should be possible to run 64 bit Java if available and fallback to 32 bit depending on your system just like any other app can and depending if you installed 64 bit Java version from PAL. Turns out Java.nsh only had a check for $PortableAppsDirectory\CommonFiles\Java and $PortableAppsDirectory\CommonFiles\Java64 was not handled.

I have some exe's that run standalone however when I try to run them in PAF they don't run.
I have also tried "RunAsAdmin=force" with same results.
This is on Windows 10 Home 64-bit.
Is there some other command?

The original PortableApps.comInstaller has a DownloadUrl cap of 2, meaning you can only download 2 files with DownloadUrl and Download2Url. This mod increases this cap to 10.

Hello community,

In some cases a program exists of more exe-files which function each separately, however together they form one program. For example I bring on the free music creator software PxTone: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PxTone

It's a package containing 4 small exe-files, because next to a sequencer there's separate software for creating instrument voices and SFX and there's a player. (By the way: it's all portable by itself, however I don't know it leaves traces into the Windows Registry)

Hello,

I haven't dealt with the PortableApps SDK more intensively yet. Since I want to solve a certain situation with PortableApps and don't know if it can solve my special situation, I would like to ask here first.

I want to make a program suite portable. This suite consists of three or four equivalent programs (called A.exe, B.exe, C.exe and D.exe). All programs use parts of a folder structure under 'Local' in the users directory. All programs can be running at the same time and each program can write to the shared folders under' Local' data.

I am trying to portablize PotPlayer (a freeware audio & video player similar to AIMP: https://daumpotplayer.com/ ) and am having some success with it except for one issue. It writes a registry entry into HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main\FeatureControl\FEATURE_BROWSER_EMULATION where there is already an existing key/value.

Hi, guys. Noob here. I really have searched the forum and SUpport for my answer but I can't find it, although I'm sure it must be right in front of me.
I also have a killer headache so, if it's okay I'd like to just ask the question. No offense intended.

I am an old school VBA/VB6 coder and need to make an MS Access app portable. Since I can't do that directly, I thought maybe I would convert it to VB6 with this: http://www.iriesoftware.com/

Hi everyone,

Since it's hard to make a good theme with the launcher of PortableApps, this is mine !

I can - if someone need it - compile it.

For now, that's only on my machine.
