Portable App Development

[Portable Apps Options] Need option to delete Portable App "Data section(s)".

Of each or all "Data section".

P.S = i still wait for that option. Please add that soon, ...

Did it have an alternate way to do that, until portableapps.com interface will do that ?

Hi,
I need to set a variable which will be used in a current run of the program but which will be set from information generated by the preceding run of the program. I know I need to use Custom.nsh in order to do that, but I need some help with it.
Thank you in advance.

Hello,

I want to make Google Chrome really Portable (there is a known issue) by adding the moving files action in the launcher INI, i.e.

[DirectoriesMove]
profile="%userprofile%\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data"

but if the copying process is very long, is there a way to inform the users with a wait message?

Thanks

Hello all,
Sorry if this has been discussed before. I am presently using Keepass 2.21 that I had downloaded earlier from http://keepass.info/download.html or more specifically, from here: http://www.professioneinformatica.eu/Products/PortableApplications/tabid...

Keepass has since upgraded to 2.28 but the packager hasn't updated to this version still. I am using this on Win7 and Win8, therefore I was not aware of the default .NET requirement that XP doesn't fulfill in this case.

Important information:
As of the time of Apr 14, 2022, 12:06 AM GMT+10, the Github repository has been archived and I am officially discontinuing this portable app. It may still work as is, but there will never be an update. If it returns under a different user with suspicious "updates", do NOT download/install.

To whoever it is that owns the UGOTTROLLED github account:
Sick troll mate, you targeted something that was slated for deletion. The other repositories that you have (along with the account name itself) make it obvious your intentions, any pull requests would of been rejected. I have enough programmer knowledge to ascertain whether any coding was potentially suspicious, anything that I would need a debugger/decompiler to read the source for would also have been rejected.

Application: Minecraft
Category: Games
Licence: Closed Source [See license page of installer]
Description: [from website]
Minecraft is a game about breaking and placing blocks. At first, people built structures to protect against nocturnal monsters, but as the game grew players worked together to create wonderful, imaginative things.

It can also be about adventuring with friends or watching the sun rise over a blocky ocean. It’s pretty. Brave players battle terrible things in The Nether, which is more scary than pretty. You can also visit a land of mushrooms if it sounds more like your cup of tea.

Dear good night would sujerir the creation of themes for PortableApps.com Platform 12 could change to some of my own if there is a way to share them with you guys be glad to help.

Thanks

Hi!

I am currently developing an application which should be portable or non-portable (like many apps here).

I am now thinking about a best practice for "configuration management", e.g. how the app handles its configuration on startup.

Since I read the "what is a portable app" link and I don't want to mess up with windows annoyances like registry etc., my approach is currently the following:

* read the configuration file xyz.cfg in the program's directory.
* if it is not found, try to read config file from user's %APPDATA% or %LOCALAPPDATA% and act according to it.

I'm currently working on portable version of Koala (see this thread), and have run into an issue with the Installer where it is failing on one file, and I'm just trying to figure out why.

The error:

File: Descending to: "..\..\App\Koala\node_modules\less\node_modules\request\node_modules\form-data\node_modules\combined-stream\node_modules\delayed-stream\test\integration\"

Folks:

Firefox Portable Plus (FPP) is my attempt to finally make a version of Firefox Portable that is independent of the host computer. VLC Media Player is completely integrated into the installation so that it will play most audio and video formats embedded within a tab in Firefox. Adobe Shockwave Flash is also built in and FPP will ingore any versions installed on the host computer. There is also the option of using Java through JPortable: https://portableapps.com/apps/utilities/java_portable.

I'm a total newbie to USB development and have a two-part Qn.
My goal is to create a GUI App for an USB drive to configure some of its settings like PINs to unlock the drive and 'allowed file-extensions', etc.

1. Do I need to write a desktop or web GUI App with mass-storage driver support to communicate with the device firmware to do this?

2. Or can I simply create a Portable App that runs on the device itself and talks directly to the device firmware? In this case, I don't need OS-driver support, right?
