Portable App Development

Hi,
I need an open source on-screen keyboard I could change, so I tried the portable one, it worked well for my basic needs, so I got the source code from the app page, but turns out that it's very different from the binary distributed on the page.
Where can I find the current source code?
Thank you.

I am currently developing an application that uses a .hidden directory to store its settings, etc.

When I add this folder to AppNamePortable.ini, it creates the original .hiddenAppNameDirectory that I'm attempting to copy, and also another directory beside it called .CopyOfhiddenAppNameDirectoryCreatedByPortableApps or something similar.

I have tried adding the settings.json file only to no avail.

Is there a way to rewrite a line in the settings.json on startup, or is there some other way I am missing here? Am I out of options?

Normally, what I would do when I get an update for an portable application is that I'd run 7-Zip, go to the app directory and create a backup zip of said portable application before I update the app. This has saved me multiple times whenever I need to downgrade the app for whatever reason.

I'd like for my process to be automated though, built into the Updater app, maybe as an opt-in option in the Advanced tab.

Thanks.

Please add the support description tag for other icons, for example:

Hi,
How can I disable the popup that warns that the upgrade didn't work?

hi,

is there really no rule the disabling app updates for a packaged app is default? In Keepass for example update search is enabled.

I have made a portable app
This app only runs on Windows 10 and 11
In the documentation, there was nothing written about newer Windows

Please guide me.

I'm developing Dev C++ Portable

Please add the "Firefox Private Browsing" icon to the portable version of Firefox.

Hi, The portable version of the LosslessCut app can be improved.

LosslessCutPortable.ini:

    [Launch]
    ProgramExecutable=LosslessCut\LosslessCut.exe
➖ ;WorkingDirectory=%PAL:AppDir%\LosslessCut
➕ CommandLineArguments=--user-data-dir=%PAL:DataDir%\AppData
    DirectoryMoveOK=yes
    SupportsUNC=yes

➖ [DirectoriesMove]
➖ LosslessCutAppData=%APPDATA%\LosslessCut
⋮

This command line can be used for all Electron apps.

Thanks.
