Hi,
How can I disable the popup that warns that the upgrade didn't work?
hi,
is there really no rule the disabling app updates for a packaged app is default? In Keepass for example update search is enabled.

Hi, The portable version of the LosslessCut app can be improved.
LosslessCutPortable.ini:
[Launch]
ProgramExecutable=LosslessCut\LosslessCut.exe
➖ ;WorkingDirectory=%PAL:AppDir%\LosslessCut
➕ CommandLineArguments=--user-data-dir=%PAL:DataDir%\AppData
DirectoryMoveOK=yes
SupportsUNC=yes
➖ [DirectoriesMove]
➖ LosslessCutAppData=%APPDATA%\LosslessCut
⋮
This command line can be used for all Electron apps.
Thanks.
Please forgive me if this has been answered/documented somewhere. I have looked and couldn't find anything.
TLDR
I have coded a new feature and would like to know how to submit it to be considered for inclusion in PortableAppsPlatform.
Details
I was looking for a way to set environment variables (specifically the PATH) globally for all the portable apps I use. I know i can modify them for each individual app, but it saves a lot of trouble by doing it in one place.
Dear PortableApps Developers,
It came to my attention, that PortablApps has some pretty huge security issues, that could be easily avoided, if the person responsible for updating portable apps had just a smudge of understanding what an update on other than MS Windows system is and how it differs.
There is of course the second matter of abandoned apps and a complete mess with the choice of apps presented to the end user, with complete disregard over their privacy and security.
