Portable App Development

Hi I am a newbie here,

this question might have been answered already.
I searched but couldn't find the answer tho.

I am trying to make a payed software (registry workshop) from torchsoft.com portable.
It's only for personal use and I will not release it so please don't even ask.:)

Now to my problem,

I have added
RunAsAdmin=force
RunAsAdminXP=none
to my launcher ini file, forcing the application to start with elevated rights on everything after windows xp.

Hi

I installed Launcher Generator (and NSIS) and then pointed it at the directory of an app I wanted to portabilize. I then get the following error:

ERROR: C:\Program Files\Genbox Family History\App\AppInfo\appinfo.ini doesn't exist!

Am I doing something wrong in its use at all?

thanks

Hi, How to Register a DLL file in the HKCU rather than in HKLM with RegDLL?

Then there in no need the administrative privileges in windows 7.

When I want to package some program with portableapps installer, only exe is in installer (and appinfo and help.html). One example: when I tried to package game Dwarf Fortress, only main exe file was added in installer. other files and folders were not packaged. Any help ?

the apps i will make portable

I know it's a bit selfish, but I don't like opening up my thumb drive and seeing a bunch of folders. Then clicking on said folders. Then clicking on the application.

Is there any way to lift the program from the folder, hide the folder, and still have it work?

Please don't suggest creating a shortcut; I have already tried this multiple times and it works for a week or two but is then made "invalid" (No idea why).

I think i can LEGALLY make a portable version of this program.

Popman (smal email client) has support for a "bigger" email client like Thunderbird. The path to that app is stored in an ini file as EmailClient=C:\PortableApps\ThunderbirdPortable\ThunderbirdPortable.exe.
Adding support for portability is easy (replace the drive letter). But adding support for path portability is hard because %PAL:PartialPath% doesnt work as it isnt the apps path that is needed but the path to Thunderbird Portable.

Does anyone know a fix for this?

Hi cracks,

I have a program i try to make portable which always needs another program. so i always have to start two portableapps. I thougt it would be a good idea to integrate both programms in one portableapp. More precisely in two app\appname dirs and tell the launcher's ini programexecutable to refer to two exe-files (i tried two lines). That does not work.

trying to follow some instructions I found to make evernote portable. I downloaded the 2.xx versions and I'm getting an error when I run the launchgenerator !include: could not find" x:\portableapps\nsisportable\app\nsis\..\..\data\settings\nsisconf.nsh Any suggestions?

Thanks
