i think its mess.
it seem not really follow system theme or save settings in config.xml in app directory.
i push this file in new version and am sadly in english and possibly other settings also wrong.
i thought this are big coders, do i miss something?
EDIT

i fixed now also other settings, but they seem not yet have setting for gui font size inside.
both not nice.
i had to eat and not make phd on the settings.
the messed in very lately version settings in two or three places for the same.

manual installing an app as standard PortableApps

Submitted by Sam_Ludford on April 6, 2025 - 5:55pm

I am trying installing MT4 as standard PortableApps, since to clear documentation I used AI to figure out how to implement structure and in related installation files, I almost did most part of the structure used, note that with /portable we can run mt4 as portable, I intentionally had moved some common files to a common folder using
so the steps were :
1. moving common folder so we can use them linked,
2 create the ini files so that portable app can proper list and categorise the terminals
3. (Missing part) creating the exe file that would call actual exe

The path to Notepad++ may not be compatible with other programs or systems

The "++" in the path has been replaced to a space, but the rest of the settings, including the configuration in the ini file, were not adjusted, making the whole software unusable. If you force open the program in Explorer, it will cause the program to read the configuration file incorrectly, resulting in data loss.

Kanri Portable?

Submitted by kitamura on October 11, 2024 - 12:40pm

Seems like Kanri portable is anything but portable:
AppData/Local/tech.trobonox.kanri/*

Stores loads of files (electron?) in the appdata folder. Nice app, but need to avoid as it's really not very portable.
