00:00:37 duh! that easy? okay. I'll try it. 00:05:40 *** Res2216firestar (i=Sam@wikipedia/Res2216firestar) has joined #portableapps 00:07:14 ooooh, oooooh!!! Instead of moving it, I decided to put a shortcut to the Start Portable Apps on my desktop, then decided to try the "Pin to Start Menu" option, and that accomplishes my original goal! Yay!! You rock!! Thank you so much. Just FINDING the stupid program files was a huge snag for me. 00:08:43 THank you so much for responding here on Christmas Eve. Happy Holidays to you!!! 00:09:54 you're very much welcome :D 00:10:03 and happy holidays to you too :) 00:13:32 hmmm -- now that I'm trying to show my husband where to find the apps, it's not working. uggghhhh!!! I may be back with another question, but right now, I'm not sure what to ask. 00:14:43 *** SrgSiler|AFK is now known as SrgSiler|sAFK 00:23:29 Bummer !! Now that I have the cool shortcuts, neither (from desktop nor from start menu) work. I can't even get the Portable Apps start menu to appear wiehn I go throu the Run, c:, etc. route. Any hints? 00:24:47 is the platform still running? 00:25:13 I don't think so -- how can I tell? there is no icon on the bottom indicating it is running, I DPON 00:25:27 i don't have any apps open 00:25:27 well, if there is no icon there, it shouldn't be running 00:25:37 unless it crashed maybe 00:25:38 I agree. 00:26:38 you could try restarting to be sure.... I can't think of anything else right now 00:26:41 However, there was no icon earlier, but when I started minimizing everything else, I found the PortableApps start menu, but there was still no icon ahere for it. 00:27:05 really? that is weird 00:27:14 then I guess you must be hiding icons 00:27:18 I closed it, thinking I would just open it again, but it will not open or appear now. 00:27:24 ha! 00:27:31 hmm, let me think 00:27:32 hmm? 00:27:38 is that possible? it is not intentional. 00:27:53 yes, XP (and others) do that automatically 00:28:13 agh! 00:29:03 I don't exactly remember, but it should be something like right-click on the bar (the one with the start button in it, but don't click on ths start button itself), go to properties.... and then there should be something like advanched settings? 00:31:06 would it be "hide inactive icons"? that is checked. I looked "behind" the inactive icons, though, and there is nothing for Portable Apps there. 00:31:24 yes, that is the setting I meant 00:31:32 I think it's the inactive icons -- the ones on the right side, that will expand when you click on the > icon? 00:31:36 but if it isn't there, this isn't the case either 00:31:50 I'm not sure, I'd think so 00:32:04 well, can you press control + shift + escape? 00:32:13 the task manager should show up if you do 00:32:54 if you go to the processes tab, and then sort by name, is there a process named PortablePlatform or something like that 00:32:58 yep -- the only task running is this chat 00:32:59 not sure of the exact name 00:33:11 oh let me look 00:34:29 ha -- yes, there are SEVERAL POrtable Apps processes running. something is going on. . . 00:34:53 select them, right-click then and click end process 00:34:57 do that for all of them 00:35:04 it is the "platform" process 00:35:14 yes 00:37:52 after you've done this, try starting the platform again 00:37:54 it should work 00:39:01 all processes (pa) ended. will try starting again. 00:39:57 Yay -- it worked! However, there is still no icon on the bottom indicating that the Portable Apps Platform is available and running. 00:40:25 thats weird, I really can't think of any reason for this :/ 00:40:33 when I selected back on this screen, the platform disappered in the background. How do I make some sort of icon appear so I can slsect it again? 00:41:07 oh gosh 00:41:11 well, the icon should appear 00:41:26 It is not even back there, when I minimize this screen! That is so weird!! 00:41:41 no icon, no platform 00:41:45 I advise posting in the forums about this since I'm afraid I've ran out of ideas 00:42:14 the process is running, though, according to the task manager 00:43:59 maybe it doesn't work because it is on my c: drive, instead of a USB device. it may not be designed to work the way I've got it loaded. 00:44:16 nah, it should work fine regardless of the location its in 00:44:51 I'll post on a forum, though.It would be really great to access it straight from my desktop or the start menu. -- and it not go away. 00:48:32 *** pa_9799 has quit ("Page closed") 01:00:17 *** Res2216firestar has quit ("Leaving") 01:43:36 *** Gizmokid2005 is now known as Gizmokid2005|AFK 01:44:04 *** Gizmokid2005|AFK is now known as Gizmokid2005 02:00:01 *** MaienM|AFK is now known as MaienM|Sleep 03:13:44 *** Mir has quit (Read error: 104 (Connection reset by peer)) 03:14:23 *** Bensawsome (n=Bensawso@unaffiliated/bensawsome) has joined #portableapps 03:14:26 Bensawsome is from the PortableApps.com forums, likes waffles VERY MUCH, and has a site at http://www.bensawsome.com .
