I used the PortableApps.com AppCompactor 2.2 with the aim to shrink my portable app streamWriter. According to the instructions on PortableApps.com AppCompactor and AppCompactor.ini the file AppCompactor.ini should resides in the folder AppInfo. Unfortunately I can't find such a file in the folder AppInfo of the app streamWriter. How can I fix that issue?

Hello Everyone:

I have been using portable apps for years now. I just recently joined the forum. I am quite pleased with the increase in the number of applications and the frequent updates. I noticed the Beta Testing section. I wanted to find out how to sign up to test and if there is a guideline used to indicate what a user should do when testing an application. I am willing to learn because I don't know the procedures. Any help would be appreciated? Thank you.

Cheers,

I am working on Ebola, a (german) downloader for free ebooks.
It need Java to work as it launches Cextra to download ebooks from Zeno.

Ebola launches Cextra as

java -jar cextra.jar ... 

so my question is this:
Does anyone know how I could tell Ebola to look for Java in CommonFiles?

Hi all,
I want to look at the Source Code and trying a few things. I tried Borland Delphi 7 but it didnt work. So which IDE should i use? And could someone give me a Tutorial how load everything right in the IDE. For Windows would be good, but for Linux would be all right too.

Thanks for reading

Currently I am busy with the preparation of my second portable program. Let me call it "boardgame". In the program folder I found some files as follows:

• one file called xxx.ini
• one file called xxx.config
• one file called xxx.db
• one file called xxx.db1
• one file called xxx.db2
• multiple files called xxx.sfg

I encountered a strange problem during packaging Nemp and suspect it a timing issue.

Problem:
Nemp is a little bit "automatic" and starts a wizard at the first launch to query several settings - mostly related to changes made to the system. Even if these are user settings, they could compromise portability (automatic updates, register file types, etc.).

Excuse me, I've searched the forum but didn't got the answer. So I made a new post here.

I'm trying to make a e-book builder called epubBuilder to a portable app. Everything goes fine except one thing. The app stores files open history in a .mdb (Microsoft Access Database) file. Is there any solution to replace driver letter and package partial dir in mdb files? Maybe using a command-line utility? I know nothing about database.

Thanks!

Its quite easy really
!st ... put your IE tor ukcatchup tv folder on your computor desktop .
2nd .... Open a normal firefox browser & install the flash plugin .
The portable ie uk catchup tv needs two files
flashplayer.xpi and NPSWF32.dll Do a serch for them & copy them
3rd ....Copy flashplayer.xpi and NPSWF32.dll to the Firefox Portable directory FirefoxPortable\App\Firefox\plugins

save onto you flasdrive and then you can use your updated portable firefox on your flash drive
