Portable App Development

Hi:

I have been lurking a while. I do have a couple of suggestions I think would improve Portable Apps. Please return the eject drive to the right-click system tray context menu. Also, I would like a user selected explore from folder option (selectable from the main PA interface) in the right-click system tray context menu. Please give these ideas due consideration.

This is two questions, basically, because this is pretty much done already.

Well, it's not "done" done, but it's close. Before I proceed, I have a couple of questions.

How much is it “done”? Well, it works. I can copy the executable and data files onto a PA USB stick in the PA directory, and it shows up on the menu, and it launches and runs. I haven't done the full-bore install and all that, and before I do, I need to know:

(1) how does the launched program know the drive letter it's running on?

(2) is there really any interest in this???

First, why am I even doing this?

Hello,

I need to change Registry Rapper icon and replace it with another one.

I tried using ResHack, but a popup windows appears, NCRC error, etc...; is there a solution about??

Thanks.

Bye.

I need to free up some space on my usb, but i can't find the uninstallation .exe for the portable apps. anyone know where to find it?

'ppreciate the help!

Hi, been searching for this but i couldn't find the code or what it's called.
How do you put a checkbox on finish page so when the installer exits, it starts the program if checkbox is checked?

Thanks

Hi,

for each program an additional process gets started which has the portable suffix. Each of those processes eat 5MG RAM.

What do they do and why do one needs them?

Before I express my idea, I want to Say that I Apologize if this is in the wrong place.
And Also I don't know if anyone has expressed this Idea at all. If so, I apologize as well.

I am a Portable Apps Freak. I want nearly everything I use to be Portable.
I am running At the moment, 2 Skypes', Foobar2000, Pidgin, Firefox, and Thunderbird, portably.
Anyway, I am going to express this idea as if everyone is an Xp or 2000 User.
Changes can be made to make this work on vista.

Respected sir,
I have used mplayer & works much better than even vlc media player & media player classic.Here is my suggestion
(1)Portable version of mplayer does not show time by default unlike installable version for windows which shows time running in base bar.Can anybody tweak the portable mplayer to show time at bottom of window?
THANK YOU.

Condition:

-Sometimes there is some applications that still runing from our flasdisk that prevent us from ejecting them (flashdisk). On the other case some virus have similar condition to prevent us to ejecting the flashdisk, because the process is still runing.

Improvement:

I noticed many different PortableApps.com language environment variables.
Exists an overview of them (name and how languages are stored)? Can't find one and want to select the best fitting one for my apps!
