Portable App Development

WhoDat Portable is no longer functional due to ARIN changing the responses from their WHOIS server causing lookups to fail. So, WhoDat needs some fixing to work properly. The app is written in C++ using QT. The original base app has been abandoned by the developer but we have the source available on the WhoDat Portable homepage linked above. It's licensed under the GPL so we can continue developing it.

Does anyone know if these two work together on Windows?

I have written a program that works against the full version but our clients have Libre Office Portable installed and I am failing to get my program connected to Portable LibreOffice. I am getting a NoConnectException. Before I dig down any further I would like to know If I should try based on whether they do work or not? I have seem many questions about it not working on the Portable Libre Office website.

Hi - is there a way of setting some kind of password / security, so that others cannot change your settings?

Excellent project by the way..

Hello, I made a portable program using ThinApp, everything works well, but the program creates an icon in the system tray, can I get rid of it? And is it possible to combine all virtual processes in 1?

ey Portable Apps, I am happy to announce that as of today, the Xfire Portable development project is back up and running. I am going under a new name, as I am no longer iTechNewsDaily. I will be moving the entire project to this forum thread. Feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns you may have.

What's going on? False positive?

According to ClamWin every single [programname]Portable.exe on my system includes a virus named: Win.Adware.Downware-419.

That includes portables developed way back in time exclusivly by/for me.

All setup (paf.exe) files are also "infected"...

Avast does not say anything about viruses though.

Scanned my system with a Clamwin virus definition dated May 7:th and NO viruses where found...

Hi guys, I'm new on the dev scene and currently producing an app that can Copy, Move or Sync (update new) files, I originally only wanted a sync capability but through testing the code I've written to copy files to another destination seems to do it faster than that of the native copy and paste, so I thought I'd add that in too.

Hi there,

I have versions of firefox (29.0.1 and 27.0.2) that I need portable app's for but portable apps currently do not support this. I download the 29.0.1 .exe from firefox, extract the content, pull the firefox runnable exe and replace the it with the portable one from the PortableApp but this does not work. How can I generate a portable Firefox runnable exe from versions of firefox that are not offered on this site?

Thank you
