VLC 2.2.4 (current version here) has a serious bug that allows complete device takeover. This has been known by VLC for months, and a preliminary fix was included in v2.2.5.1 release back in January 2017. Why has the portable version here not been updated? If we users are to rely on the software offered here, it would be nice to be able to have confidence that security problems are addressed in a timely manner.

Audacity Portable creates a directory in AppData\Local\Audacity, which itself sometime contains session files. After closing Audacity these files aren't being deleted. Is it normal? If so, is there any setting I can change so that it creates these files and directories in the Audacity Portable "Data" directory?

I'm trying to update to Cdex 1.8.4, but am getting the following error:

Download Error: Rget Error on file
http://mirror.cdex.mu/CDex-1.84.exe

I'm using Portable Apps version 14.4.1 on Windows 7 Enterprise 64 bit.

Any ideas??

Norton reports this update has 'Trojan.GEN.2' and blocks the installation.

Every time I exit VLC Portable, the vlcrc (settings) file in Data\settings gets renamed to vlcrc.####, and the prefs won't get saved for the next session.

If I forcefully remove all these random files and just put a clean vlcrc file in the folder, VLC.exe opens fine - once - and then gets reset again.

If I open a video file as opposed to the .exe, the prefs get reset immediately. Even the Privacy and Network Access Policy popup reappears.

How do I get VLC portable to retain its preferences?

This came to my attention in a post on the Portable Freeware Forums ( http://www.portablefreeware.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=86025#p86025 ): Audacity leaves an empty folder in C:\Users\\AppData\Local\Audacity\Session Data

I checked and it's true. This is with Audacity 2.1.2.

The issue is that when you open a large playlist, it runs whenever you are at computer. However, obviously from the reason we are all using PortableApps in the first place, we may use them on different computers.

When I move from one computer to another, it's quite possible for the playlist which had it's place saved is no longer valid because it was pointing to say "D:" on the last computer, but this new computer it plugged in and initialized as "E:".

hi

is aimp 4 portable really stealth ?

for stealth i mean "stealth" means when an application is launched, used and terminated properly, it does not leave behind any entries in the registry or filesystem

thanks

False or true, Audacity Portable shows splash screen.

On https://portableapps.com/apps/music_video/cdrtfe_portable if you click on Oliver Valencia under publisher you get a http://cdrtfe.sourceforge.net/cdrtfe/index_en.html" with a 404 error. Removing the " fixes the problem. I tried it in Firefox and Chrome. Edge shows a a %22 instead of a ". I hope this helps.
