Security Apps Support

Startup Sentinel accesses internet on initial load. Perhaps checking for version update. Shouldn't this be turned off by default?

Does the Portable Apps Emsisoft Emergency kit make any changes to the registry and/or computer?

I installed Enigmail extension within Thunderbird. So, when I'm about to shutdown portableapps launcher a message is displayed that portableapps can't stop because dirmngr is still running.
When Thunderbird is shut down then GPGShutdown is called which properly terminates gpg-agent but leaves dirmngr running.

GPGShutdown should also terminate dirmgr. dirmngr can't even be terminated by means of gpgconf: .\portableapps.com\PortableApps\CommonFiles\GPG\bin\gpgconf.exe --kill dirmngr

Hi,

First of all, it's great to have KeePass 2 on PortableApps!

Today when updating to the latest KeePass version, my database, settings and plugins got lost.

I had placed settings and database in "PortableApps\KeePassProPortable\App\KeePassPro\" directory.
I had placed plugins in "PortableApps\KeePassProPortable\App\KeePassPro\Plugins\" directory.

Where should I place those files in order to avoid trouble in the future?

Thanks!

Has anyone tried integrating KeePassXC portable with Firefox Portable via the KeePassXC-Browser addon (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/keepassxc-browser/)

I think there might be a problem with the fact that FF is portable and KeePassXC can't intercept it somehow?

Any ideas?

Hello dear admins and forum members,

1st of, sorry of my bad english spelling.
I hope you all can understand what I mean.

I'm trying to write a loader that creates firewall rules and then launches the program.

On this page there is a plugin for NSIS to download:
NSIS SimpleFC PlugIn

So my understanding of the whole philosophy of PortableApps was to have software that would normally require Admin rights to the computer installed in such a way as to not require that. "Set your PC free" and all that.

So why is it that attempting to run VeraCrypt is hitting me with a prompt to enter admin credentials? If I had admin credentials, I wouldn't need the portable version of the app.

Am I just doing something wrong?

Path adjustment in FileWrite1-3 in launcher ini, ForwardSlash should be used.

When installing Spybot - Search and Destroy V2.5 Portable (which I downloaded from here) I get the following error:

Error opening file for writing:

D:\PortableApps\SpybotPortable\App\Spybot\DWWADTPP.scr

Click abort to stop the installation,
Retry to try again, or
Ignore to skip the file

I have tried and gotten this error on two separate systems with two separate USB keys.

Has anyone else seen this? Is there a fix or workaround?

Thanks,

Lowell

This particular error happened while updating McAfee Stinger, which makes me particularly suspicious.

Can anyone tell me what this error means exactly. I know what the definition of redirection is but, is this just a badly named error for something else, or is it possible that someone is trying to inject a payload into the exe file during an update?

I've also seen this same error while trying to install a database viewer app a month ago.
