Welcome to the PortableApps.com IRC channel. Please ask your question and someone should be with you shortly. If you do not receive an answer wait a bit longer or consider posting it on the forums. 00:42:36 Hi : I the launcher , by which I mean the start portable apps.com icon, a 145kb .exe file, for the portable apps platform no longer works. I've used it many times before, and it just stopped working. I canopen the Portable Apps folder and start the individual applications singly, but the launcher gives me a screen with no display items and an error about some file not being found. So my question is what can I do to get the st 01:37:54 pa_0481: the 145KB file called "Start.exe" in the root of your drive just calls the platform itself 01:38:48 the platform needs to be installed in X:\PortableApps\PortableApps.com 01:38:55 you should have a PortableAppsPlatform.exe file here 01:41:26 pa_0481: if you don't have this, or maybe the files are corrupt, you will want to redownload the platform from here: http://portableapps.com/download 02:15:18 Hi Gizmokid. That is what I did. I had to move the application folder around to a couple of places but I finallly got it going. Thanks for your help. The only remaining question is that when I right click and look at properties it shows 57 GB on an 8gb drive. But it works ok. If I can fix it I would like to. Thanks again. Jojo 02:16:23 pa_0481: given that information and your other problem, it sounds like the drive may be going bad or the information you're getting is for the wrong drive 02:16:29 those are two cases where it would show incorrectly. 02:17:59 *** ronjn has quit (Quit: Rien n'est vrai. Tout est permis.) 02:55:02 Thanks for all the help. The drive may be going. I'll probably transfer it to a separate usb. 02:58:12 *** pa_0481 has quit (Quit: Page closed) 03:14:59 *** rcmaehl has quit (Quit: Leaving) 03:18:49 *** Gamemaster77 (~Gamemaste@pool-71-251-166-125.bflony.east.verizon.net) has joined #portableapps 03:22:36 hi 03:24:17 anyone here? 06:08:50 *** Gamemaster77 has quit (Ping timeout: 256 seconds) 07:05:16 *** AlleyKat has quit (Ping timeout: 252 seconds) 09:39:42 *** AlleyKat (~Miranda@188-183-213-234-dynamic.dk.customer.tdc.net) has joined #portableapps 09:41:07 *** ronjn (~ronjn@p5B13FE88.dip.t-dialin.net) has joined #portableapps 11:04:48 *** Gamemaster77 (~Gamemaste@pool-71-251-166-125.bflony.east.verizon.net) has joined #portableapps 11:09:10 *** Gamemaster77 has quit (Ping timeout: 256 seconds) 12:15:07 *** AlleyKat has quit (Quit: Miranda IM!

That's saved in ANSI though, should I change that? 22:24:23 okay, I did some messing around and found some stuff out 22:24:51 The launcher works if the encoding of the file is different from the one set in the .ini 22:24:59 If it is the same encoding, it will not work 22:25:11 But it also works if the file isn't there 22:25:19 And in no cases is it actually doing the replacing 22:25:50 hm!? 22:26:18 ok, dinner time.
