XnViewMP64 Portable: Selected language ignored

Submitted by Exoner on April 1, 2023 - 7:31am

Hello,

I'm using this version (copied from the 'about'-screen:

XnView MP Windows
Version 1.4.3 64bits (Feb 25 2023)

Libformat version 7.138

I installed XnViewMP64 Portable using the PortableApps-UI. The installation was easy, no errors, no problems. The application was installed with a German user-interface and runs smoothly.

I launched Tools->Options.
I set the language to 'English'.
I restarted XnVMP64.
The language was still set to 'German'.

Inkscape - states it has failed to open the requested file

Submitted by Lexicon13 on March 6, 2023 - 5:52pm

I'm having am issue where inkscape will not import .png or .svg files.
where it produces a white and red "x" icon on screen or states it has failed to open the requested file.
display mode is normal
This seems to have started recently as these are png's and svg's that i created with inkscape.

Has anyone else experienced this?

GIMP 2.10.x Won't run under a directory with spaces in the name

Tested in multiple drives and folders. If the folder has a long name with spaces, the program will launch and close immediately. This behavior does not happen with any other program from PortableApps.com, that I use (and I use a lot of them).

I think it's the same bug this guy was experiencing!

EDIT.: I did the following tests:

Krita: where to put custom python plugins?

Submitted by cinaeco on January 19, 2023 - 2:49am

First off, discoverning portableapps has been fantastic! Thanks to all who make this possible!

I have been placing my custom python plugins into KritaPortable\App\Krita64\share\krita\pykrita. This has worked well until I recently ran a newer portableapps installer to upgrade Krita, and this removed my plugins.

I then tried to place them in KritaPortable\Data\krita\pykrita, but my plugins have disappeared from there as well. It seems that this folder gets emptied automatically or something?

Gimp 2.10.32 Rev 1

Submitted by mrw2day on January 17, 2023 - 11:54am

For some time I get a notifier when I am in Gimp that there is a updated version Gimp 2.10.32 Rev 1. I finally looked up what the revision does...and although it does not address anything that I would be concerned with...I was wondering if there was a reason the portableapp for Gimp has not been updated.

Inkscape startup issue

Submitted by petruscaleus on July 20, 2022 - 11:55am

Hi there,

I have a problem running Inkscape (1.2.1) in portable mode.
(I had no problems with 0.9..2? last year; uninstalled it, and reinstalled the current version today via the platform's integrated app manager).

1. When I run it from the menu / via "InkscapePortable.exe", the launcher splash shows up, but not Inkscape itself (despite being present in the taskmanager / details).

2. When I run the launcher as administrator, it works as expected - with the fact, that I have to fill the annoying UAC popup with an even more annoyingly long admin user / password.

[Fixed] IrfanView Portable 4.60 Rev 2 Can't Use 32-bit Plugins

Submitted by OsakaWebbie on July 14, 2022 - 1:30am

I have always run IrfanView 32-bit only, and it has been fine. But recently PortableApps said it had an update for "IrfanView 4.60 Rev 2". I assumed that was just the same IrfanView, so I allowed it to proceed. But it didn't update the 32-bit version that I had been using, but instead added a 64-bit version alongside it (separate IrfanView64 folder under PortableApps/IrfanViewPortable/App) and changed PortableApps/IrfanViewPortable/IrfanViewPortable.exe to point to that version.
