RAM optimization for Launcher

Submitted by Antony Murste on December 2, 2017 - 1:53am

Hello.

Why does Launcher take up so much RAM? Launcher has much less functionality than the application being launched. But Launcher requires RAM more than the application you are running.

For example
AkelPad.exe - 7 MiB
AkelPadPortable.exe - 40 MiB
ProcessExplorerPortable.exe - 38 MiB
ProcessExplorer.exe - 36 MiB

add extension to chrome premanently

Submitted by cdlmg on November 17, 2017 - 2:55pm

Hello everyone

I am working with a portable google chrome to make tests in a laboratory. And I have a problem that I still can not solve. when adding an extension to the portable, it works fine but when changing the pc device the extensions are deleted.

I was reviewing the forum but I have not been able to find any solution.

A possible solution would be to login with a google account in the browser, in this way the extensions would be integrated but for the activity that I must perform this option is not viable.

How to emulate/define *.dll files

RegEdit's picture
Submitted by RegEdit on November 15, 2017 - 8:18am

The problem is this: My portable application requires the presence of files / drivers in the "System32" / SysWOW folder. I will say that the application will not work even if you put the files in the root folder. How to make them either emulated or copied to the System32 folder / WOW and then deleted. It is reasonable to use the first option, of course, but I do not know how ...

I tried to use .bat(RunAsAdmin) - access denied

Hosts

Submitted by Gaber on October 27, 2017 - 2:33pm

Hi,

I would know how is better manage the hosts file. I have to add a line and the hosts file could change in time (so I can't backup the file and substitute every times).

Is there a specific command for add (and automatic remove) the line each time?

Thanks
