[Fixed] McAfee Stinger TTF and regsistry left behind

Submitted by AbsolutelyRandom on January 18, 2024 - 7:04pm

1. There's a leftover left by McAfee Stinger at "C:\Program Files\stinger". Inside it there's a font file "OpenSans-Regular-webfont.ttf". The app deserves a fix so it is removed automatically at shutdown.
2. Another thing is an empty registry key at "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\McAfee".

Veracrypt (1.26.7) Driver Not Found Win 11

Submitted by maincompany on December 13, 2023 - 4:24pm

Receiving following error when attempting to launch VC 1.26.7 on Win 11

"an incompatible version of the VeraCrypt driver is currently running"

"unable to connect to the VeraCrypt device driver. VC cannot work if the device driver is not running."

(I've taken screen grabs of both dialog boxes. Happy to upload where ever is convenient)

VeraCrypt update from 1.25.9 to 1.26.7

Submitted by SurplusGadgets on October 9, 2023 - 5:36pm

After 1.5 years, Veracrypt was updated. But unbeknownst to many, I suspect, this new update removes TrueCrypt compatibility. See https://sourceforge.net/p/veracrypt/discussion/general/thread/263a8d11aa... . You either have to use the older 1.25.9 release you just replaced or possibly even go back to TrueCrypt 7.1a / 7.2. Both Veracrypt old version and Truecrypt last version are available (see below) but not here in PortableApps.

Keepass Pro

Submitted by softfoot on September 23, 2023 - 6:37am

I need to install the "QuickSearch" plugin so I have down loaded the appropriate plugin file (QuickSearch.plgx) and put it in the
(G:\PortableApps\KeePassProPortable\App\KeePassPro\Plugins) directory on the flash disk.

However, while I can see the plugin via the "Tools->Plugins" menu it does not appear on the app at runtime (should be beside the general
search box).

Any ideas ???

I have to use Keyepass v2 as it has to access an existing v2 database on a server.
