Should I post a comment in the app's page? 16:48:28 The recommended way is to post to the forum thread. 16:49:25 Checker has already updated the entry, though: http://www.portablefreeware.com/?id=2169 16:50:51 The reason why most updates of Chromium Portable don't bring it to the main page is the update frequency filter. 16:50:52 http://www.portablefreeware.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=7431 16:51:04 Yeah, I see. Wonder why it's using Chromium's changelog, though. 16:51:25 In fact, I'm one of the people who most actively demanded that filter. :D 16:52:33 And I think using Chromium's changelog is good. I assume that's what people want to know. 16:54:16 Sure. Unfortunately I don't know if it's adding Chromium Portable's changes too. 17:05:08 *** techfreak243 (~techfreak@c-68-40-88-129.hsd1.mi.comcast.net) has joined #portableapps 17:55:28 *** PlauSocks|AFK is now known as PlauSocks 18:01:24 *** Mir has quit (Remote host closed the connection) 18:03:11 *** Mir (~Mir@pool-71-109-220-84.lsanca.dsl-w.verizon.net) has joined #portableapps 18:07:19 *** AlleyKat has quit (Ping timeout: 258 seconds) 18:08:12 *** pa_5042 (44c233a5@gateway/web/freenode/ip.68.194.51.165) has joined #portableapps 18:13:19 gizmokid2005 18:13:55 pa_5042: How can we help you? 18:15:47 i installed portable apps to my external when my OS was xp, now I have windows 7 and it will not work(update) 18:16:23 Does it shows any error messages? 18:16:44 only when I update 18:16:56 What version are you using? 18:17:35 portable apps or my OS 18:17:47 PortableApps.com 18:18:52 I don't know 18:19:32 Would it be this error? http://portableapps.com/node/29509 18:20:40 unable to connect to portable apps. File error 18:24:16 still there? 18:24:37 Yes 18:24:59 1. So you can run the PortableApps.com Platform, right? You just can't update. 2. Can you find out the exact error message? 18:25:48 the error reads "unable to connect to portable apps. File error" 18:27:57 Can you check if updating to the latest version fixes the issue? http://downloads.sourceforge.net/portableapps/PortableApps.com_Platform_Setup_2.0_Pre-Release_4.1.exe 18:31:38 No. It reads "error opening file for writing" 18:32:29 Do you know if the drive where PortableApps is installed uses NTFS? 18:33:26 yes, it's ntfs 18:33:47 Ahh... should be a file permission issue. 18:34:38 how do I address that? Please 18:35:22 Hold on... 18:35:42 Sure, thanks 18:40:22 OK. Right-click the drive in My Computer, click in Properties and go to the Security tab. 18:41:44 I'm there 18:42:46 Is there a "Everyone" group? 18:43:05 yes 18:46:06 Click the Edit... button, select the Everyone group and check "Full Control" in the Allow column. 18:51:21 It's working perfectly, Many thanks, have a good day 18:52:10 You're welcome.

Can I use a portable app, eg Firefox as a default program? 23:20:35 Thanks for your help +gluxon I really appreciate it. Be well. 23:20:48 Your welcome. 23:21:08 About your second question, PortableApps aren't really meant to be set as default programs. 23:21:18 So you have two options. 23:21:46 You can use DefaultMyFFP 23:21:46 http://portableapps.com/node/7693 23:22:57 Or for temporary file association (not pernament), you can use eXpresso or PortableFileAssociator. 23:23:19 Be weary that DefaultMyFFP is a bit dated though. 23:23:25 It should still work though. 23:25:13 *** pa_0439 has quit (Ping timeout: 265 seconds)
