Download Iron Portable 9.0.600.2 Development Test 1 [17.3 MB download / 59.8 MB installed]

Does anyone have a copy of the Ansi KillProc NSIS plugin they'd be willing to send my way? I need it so I can compile the Chrome/Iron launcher, but the usual download site is down for maintenance and I can't seem to find a mirror.

Thanks!

Hi, first, many compliments, portable apps are very cool

I'm trying to distribute a presentation written in html/js on a usb pen.

I'm doing this using firefox portable, and creating an autorun that launch firefox when the usb pen is connected.

On windows xp this autorun creates an entry in the autorun dialog with the text:

"Text written from me in autorun file"
Open with selected program

In windows vista I see:

"Text written from me in autorun file"
Pubblished by RARE IDEAS, LLC

I'm wondering if:

Further to my musings in the Evince Portable announcement comments, is it possible to implement multiple optional sections in the installer? This would be useful in cases where only specific languages are desired in a mulltilingual installer, or where an application by default offers multiple optional components (ie. Fonts & Clipart & Templates).

[EDIT: added "in a multilingual installer" to clarify what I meant]

Hello all,
I`m new here. Well that's not the reason why I`m posting this
I have an idea for the CubicExplorer.
My Company (i work as an engineer there) has many files in one folder with nearly identical names.
http://img209.imageshack.us/img209/1622/beispieli.jpg roundabout 300 folders in one.
Mostly we don t have to search anything, our problem is to find something. Mostly, the only difference between the file names is one number or one letter.

Here comes the (stolen)* idea.

Paint.NET is free image and photo editing software for computers that run Windows. It features an intuitive and innovative user interface with support for layers, unlimited undo, special effects, and a wide variety of useful and powerful tools. An active and growing online community provides friendly help, tutorials, and plugins.

This portable version is based on 3.5.6 and .NET Framework 3.5 is required to make the application run.

Testing some apps in development test status arose a question for me: Where to point an App's Output folder by default - if applicable?

It seems to be handled differently until now. Some apps default for AppnamePortable\Data, some for "My Documents" on the host PC (many official apps), some for Documents including their designated section Pictures/Music/Video, some even somewhere in their App folder (obviously a design flaw).

it even went open-source, thanx to a new hooking engine.

see : JPE 0.6.0 Runtime release candidate build Testing Needed

The last few weeks it has been tested, and seems to work well, even with Vista or Windows 7.

Hiyo, I noticed today when I downloaded AppCompactor it came with a old, unstable version of 7za (9.15)

As most of you know 7-Zip 9.20 (Stable) was released a few months ago.
I don't think it should cause any problems using the old version but, since a lot of PortableApps are compressed using it and PA 2.0 *should* be right around the corner, I would think this needs to be updated.

Its also using an old version of UPX (3.5) which would be nice to have updated to the latest (3.7)

hello there!

as in topic, is it possible to get a information about
non-updateable apps in the list?
maybe a notice about alpha/beta status will be nice too!
