Portable App Development

This isn't the first time I noticed it, but I was able to fix this problem before.
Look at this image.

The installer freezes up like that sometimes and it doesn't ever pick up again. It just stays like that. Normally, when that happens, I kill the process makensis.exe and exit out of everything thats open and recompile again. That usually works. with 2.0.2 though, its not working. I noticed that mainly happens with larger apps.

Earlier today, vf2nsr mentioned he was looking at the Python documentation, for googsystray, to see if he could come up with a way to make it use a portable browser when it opens web pages - it uses the Python webbrowser module to open webpages. So I thought to myself that it would be useful to have a module which we could add to Python apps if they open web pages often (normally when it's just an about box or things like that I wouldn't bother unless it can be conveniently arranged with the development team).

The PortableApps.com Installer is doing something pretty weird: every time it gets to 90% or so, it hangs. Here's what I managed to find out:
* Both 2.0.2 and 2.0 hang
* PAI only hangs when building one specific package - Double Commander. I was able to successfully build both Iron Portable and ToDo List Portable, which eliminates a general problem with PAI.

Hey again everyone. I'm getting the hang of pportable app development, but there are stll a few hurdles to get over. One of them it registering files, the un-registerng them when alls done. How do I do that???

Many thanks to all who have helped me in the past, I hope you aren't finding me annoying

I have read that i could make an app portable with an INI-file.
How can I do that?

Thanks

With Pandora.com radio's obtrusive commercials, I found that Last.FM was the superior player for my comfort. In addition, it also has the ability to "scrobble" from your music players such as iTunes, Windows Media Player, VLC, etc. that are installed on your C drive. This means that the Last.FM database is being updated even when you don't use their service, consequently a superior music genome project.

I am sure I am brain cramping with a syntax error but can not seem to copy from APPDATA to portable data file,

here is my launcher.ini file

I Have A Program Which I Want To Run
The Problem Is I Need To Change The Registry For The Program To Work.
My Problem Is That I Cant Change The Registry From Certain Computers.
Now Being A Fan Of Portable Apps I Thought That Maybe Portable Apps
May Offer Me A Solution.

I wanted to make Peerblock work with my portable apps platform and I thought I would look into making it myself. Peerblock already has a portable version (but it can't go into the platform) and doesn't appear to be written in Java or .NET so I thought this would at least be a little easier.
