Notepad++ 7.8.2 install plugin removes plugin admin

Submitted by einst3 on January 16, 2020 - 10:43pm

Notepad++ 7.8.2 installed on usb stick fmt exfat on win7 when installing new plugin after restart it removes plugin admin.
if i install 7.8.1 and install plugin then update plugin admin stays. actually 7.8.1 after plugin install removes plugin admin option. but if you update after the plugin admin is back. i dont know because of slowness of usb drive. usb drive formatted as exfat.
i tested on local hard drive pa install and it did the same thing. dont know why plugin admin disappears after new plugin install.

Geany spellchecker not working

Submitted by fkbreitl on November 26, 2019 - 12:33pm

I cannot get the spellchecker working because it is not possible to run geany-plugins-1.36_setup.exe from https://plugins.geany.org/downloads.html on the portable version.
And this instruction https://portableapps.com/node/21685 stopped working since Geany 1.36.

Is there any solution?

Otherwise Geany should come with plugins installed to get the spellchecker.

[QUESTION/REQUEST] More informative dialog (on startup & exit) for PortableApps.com Launcher

Submitted by Andhika24kd on June 19, 2019 - 6:29am

I'm currently portablizing an app that store a large amount of data on many different locations (I won't tell you the app since it's private) so it may take a while for PortableApps.com launcher to clean it or restore it later (may take up to 15 seconds or more). This is annoying because I must manually check if the PA Launcher is still running in the background each time I want to shutdown the PC or run other program that may corrupt the cleaning process.

I have a portable app all wrapped up and ready to go, files are here:

https://github.com/Ben136KBC/CodeXCavator2/tree/master/PortableAppsFiles
(I am the developer)

I would like to have it go through the official testing and be added as something available via the Apps, Get More Apps... menu option.

How can I make that happen please?
