C-Force Portable? Error: RICHTX32.OCX..?

Submitted by Pordium on September 21, 2007 - 8:03am

I tried 3 ways to create this software a portable for my usb-stick, so I can test my own website security when I´m on vacation for 2 months...

1) thinstall
2) Creating portable the traditional way with NSIS
3) and as last resort just copying the program folder to usb stick.

So result with these 3 methods, the program just gives me this error message:

NSIS 2.3

Submitted by Gph007 on September 21, 2007 - 12:39am

I have installed NSIS 2.3 and to test it I am trying to execute a portableapps script. I have tried to compile the examples that come with NSIS and they all work fine. I can not get a single portableapps script to compile. I have tried a lot of them and they all seem unable to find the executable and abort on Invalid command: FindProcDLL::FindProc. Here is part of the output from NSIS: (SumatraPDF) -- What am I doing wrong?

Changing directory to: "F:\PortableApps\SumatraPDFPortable\Other\SumatraPDFPortableSource"

GLOBAL Proxy Settings

Submitted by Mike1979 on September 18, 2007 - 1:07pm

Hi everyone.
I'm using PortApp on my flash at home and 3 offices. There are different network settings (proxy servers) on each working place.

I'm constantly changing the PROXY servers for all online applications, like Miranda, Thunderbird, FileZilla etc.

It could be great to create an application which could auto-detect proxy settings (from installed IE, for example)and manage many Proxy profiles to choose from and setup the config files for Online applications while choosing one of them, like:

Home
Office1
Office2
Office3

Name it PortGlobeProxy for example Smile

Yeah I am trying to make FM portable but the .freemind folder left behind in the user's Docs and Settings folder is giving me a rash. FMP seems to retain its setting only once, and even at that 1st time the .freemind folder is left behind. The launcher is based off of John's Mines-Perfect Portable launcher.

So please look at the .nsi and help me fix it.

Heres the .nsi:
