Is there a way to change splashscreens in portable apps?
Resource Hacker didn't show it in the exe file?
In band, I got bored and my mind dozed off to video and DVDStyler Portable which reminded me of CamStudio which reminded me that lots of people want to know how to develop apps. So I thought- why not make a video?
So the video would show this stuff:
I'd do it if I had enough time, but summer is really absent minded...
Yo I was messing around with autohotkey earlier and I came up with this small script for those of you who want to put a file in an ahk script and type a password of your choice to extract it. This could be useful when sending files to friends over email or whatever, and for an added security measure you could also actually encrypt it. So here it is and there is also misleading text saying it will delete the file if password is typed wrong but all it will do is move it to the Temp directory and rename the file.

Well I decided to do an unofficial AutoDetector while we await on the wheels of John. Currently it's not even working. I'm hoping somebody more experienced with AutoHotKey might be able to point out my flaws? Thanks for any help you may be able to give. Just remember I'm not that good with AHK.

Hello!
Just a new Mod theme.
A door to nowhere...
So latly I have gone mad with my portable apps and installed a fair view now the only problem is searching for them all in the menu system. I'm using the standard portableapps menu system.
Is there any way of putting them in expandable folders i.e Games, Office, System Tools, Internet etc.
Alright, I know in the past I started to look into how to make an autohotkey script that would automatically eject the drive you have the PA menu on (when you click the eject button on PA menu). Well I began to write the script, and I made a basic one that works. Here it is.....
DriveGet, list,List, REMOVABLE ;Only gets Removable Drives. DriveGet, cap, capacity, %list%: ;Gets total usb size DrivespaceFree, free, %list%: ;Tells you available space on drive DriveGet, fs, fs, %list%: ;Tells you what format the drive is in, eg: Fat32, Fat
My friend motivated me (aka begged me) to learn PHP, so I wanted to get a PHP IDE. My dad still won't let me install anything so I chose to make a Portable (on my extra 'Dev' drive I found) so that I could use it. And already it's causing me problems
hello,
I'm new here but already lookng for stuff.
I'm looking for a way to lock m'n pc or laptop when the usb drive is not pluged in. the drive runs all my portableapps. Does anyone know where i can find that, doe that true scripting or can you develop one that runs under portableapps?
I use the 2.6.2 template to make applications portable. I noticed that if I specify multiple entries to $REGKEYS in the header (with ||), after the application terminates, only the first entry is saved to Data directory.
I think the problem is in the CleanReg function, or more specifically, CleanRegLoop section:
; --------------------------------------------------------------------------
; Copy actual registry key to portable folder
