include <folder>.lnk

When "Refresh App Icons" is called, a search is made for folder.exe. If you can't find it, you should search for folder.lnk. Then I could also include installed programs in the menu. That would be great.

smaller active field requested for PortableApps.com in Launcher

Submitted by reberhardt on December 15, 2021 - 11:44am

Since last update the active field around PortableApps.com (just above the cross for leave) is much higher than necessary. So if you tab above in the grey field in order to show the launcher you get a new tab in your browser which is showing your website. Betwee "help"-button and "PortableApps.com"-button there is enough place for clicking to show the launcher.

Install request - create TempForPortableApps

Submitted by FKlusmann on September 16, 2021 - 12:02pm

I request, or suggest, that the creation of (root):\TempForPortableApps be done as part of the initial installation.
I just did a complete new download and install of PoratableApps onto a new USB memory stick. Then I asked PoratableApps to download and install LibreOffice. I checked the Paths and saw that Temporary files still pointed to drive "C:". Of course, manually creating the directory (or folder) fixed the problem.
How many new users would know how to do this?
Thank you!

Web site - unable to logout

I tried to log out by clicking the "Log Out" in the page header. I am redirected to "https://portableapps.com/user/logout"
That page says Access denied - You are not authorized to access this page.

The Back button shows that I am still online. I'd give a screenshot if I see how to upload it.
