Portable App Development

Let's store java preferences in a file instead of storing them in the registry as noted in the launcher guide:

One way of storing settings in Java applications is with java.util.prefs. This stores its settings in the registry, in HKCU\Software\JavaSoft\Prefs\[package path]

I've made this a while ago and decided to share it with the community. This page takes the app data from a form and generates the content of a properly formatted comment for the Test Releases page, preventing the burden of editing the code directly and inadvertently removing some tag. It also automatically escapes special characters.

I have a question.... how can you (after making a portable app) upload it?

exist wrapper for normal Apps [exe], to become PortableApps? where found?

Does anyone know, if you are logged in with a limited account, and then run a PortableApp with elevated rights....

1. Will the HKCU RegistryKeys entries in the launcher.ini file refer to those for the Admin user or the limited account? If they refer to the Admin user, is there a way of coding for the limited users HKCU entries under elevated rights? I need to store some current desktop settings for the current user whilst the portableapp is running and revert them when the program exists. But I also need to capture some HKLM entries too.

hey there!
just visited and browsed portableapps and the forum a few hours, and I'm totally confused...
and i have to ask same old question again... :
"how do i make standalone software portable?!"

I'm totally confused, because most of the threats are 2 or more! years old. And none of the ways are easy to use or at least easy to understand.

Hello,

Why can change the theme from Portable Apps Platform?

Greets, John

A part of a test im conducting after making an app portable via PAL Beta is moving the whole package/folder thru different locations. Things went fine except for that warning message stating something like "the whole package was moved at a new location & it should be discouraged"
Is there a way to stop that warning message from appearing?

a.exe (which I've now renamed to AMAA for AutoMenuAutoAccent) is a AutoHotkey_L script written by me. AMAA does the following:

1. Gives shortcuts for placing accents on letters similar to MS Word (with some added functionality aimed at developers).
2. Overrides the Windows key to open the PortableAppsMenu rather than the Windows start menu.
3. Overrides [Win + E] to open a user-specified file browser.

I have tried to install this verson of skype (Skype Portable 5.3.0.111) on my flash drive (Kingston 8GB) and it was telling me that there was a problem with the program itself as in the install package itself was corrupted. I tried again and the same thing. Then i completely uninstalled the app and tried to reinstall it....still the same problem. Somebody please help me (or if there is more) us.
