Good day

Ripples tell me
there is a directory \ FirefoxPortable \ Other \ Source
as I understand it, she is responsible for compiling the MozilaFirefoxPortateble assembly.
I myself have built an assembly with additional plug-ins for myself.
Compiled via PortableApps.comInstaller_3.5.11 without problems

Packaging the 32 and 64-bit versions of Krita together doubles the installation size

Submitted by Stephen Leibowitz on December 23, 2018 - 11:23am

The Krita Foundation publishes separate 32-bit and 64-bit versions of Krita. In contrast, when the PortableApps Krita setup file (currently KritaPortable_4.1.3.paf.exe) is run, it installs both the 32 and 64-bit versions (the Krita and Krita64 subfolders). The problem is these subfolders are big. The sum of the two subfolders is 656MB, with each of the two subfolders taking about half that space. The entire PortableApps Krita is less than 1MB larger.

USB Program app development - For use with Television, via USB port

Submitted by GaryM-Wyzr on December 14, 2018 - 8:28am

Hi All,
I have a business idea that requires programmed information (on the USB device) to interact with USB enabled television sets, at pre-determined periods of the day, in either a "screensaver" view or "scrolling" banner view. It must interact with the TV's clock. Is this possible?

Help wanted by creating an portable app

Hello everybody,

I would like to learn creating an portable application. Despite the detailed information on this website and some tutorials elsewhere on the internet I find it very hard to understand because of problems with my concentration and attention span. (Yes, ADHD...) I understand the concept, however I get confused by the many tweaks I have to enter into the ini-files. I know all the information needed is described in the manual, but by seeing hundreds of tweaks needed to be entered for a correct ini-file it gets unorganized and confused.
