But I have failed so many times. I will write down soon. Just a heads up. 12:56:06 I have a 7z Self-extracting archive which I created by using 7Zip Portable. But I forgot the code. I have tried to use many Password Recovery softwares. But they all failed. 12:57:33 Some people say, give it up. It's impossible to break 7zip. 12:57:47 Should I just give up? 12:58:15 pa_2730: that's not really an issue with 7zip portable, that's an issue with a 7zip archive you created yourself. The best we can do is direct you to the 7zip team themselves. 13:01:22 I should just give up. But thanks anyway.

Any ideas on how to prevent this from happening? http://superuser.com/questions/586090/fix-portableapps-com-another-instance-of-is-currently-closing-please-wait 14:43:46 Azaziah: ensuring that you close down your apps entirely before removing the drive they're on or shutting down the computer are the best bets. 14:47:54 Gizmokid2005: I have OpenLP portable installed on Google drive and used by some 6 different computers 14:48:12 That's going to be a problem Azaziah and likely the cause of your issues. 14:48:25 You're essentially having multiple computer run the same instance of the software, there are going to wind up being conflicts. 14:49:10 Gizmokid2005: This is 2nd time it happens, conflicts are OK, just some duplicate files at the times 14:49:25 You're misunderstanding Azaziah 14:49:38 Every time you run a portable app, the launcher uses the file in question from your link to maintain the state. 14:49:51 If you have multiple different computers running the app, this file is going to wind up in a "bad" state. 14:49:58 The only way to prevent it, is to not do that. 14:51:16 Gizmokid2005 It usually works very well even thou multiple computers use it at the same time. So this is something un-fixable by tweaking some settings etc? 14:51:31 Correct Azaziah. That's not something you can prevent due to your use case. 14:51:49 It's not going to happen consistently, it's largely going to depend on timing and how the google drive client handles the syncing. 14:53:03 Gizmokid2005 Perhaps we could somehow automatically delete the file once it gets created / set it not to synch? 14:53:19 You could probably do that, but that would be up to the sync client. 14:55:25 Gizmokid2005: Okay, thanks for the info! I need to think if I can automate the fix somehow. 14:56:12 I also posted on forums in june: http://portableapps.com/node/51470 Any thoughts on this? 14:56:44 Nope. The translations are handled by the lead dev himself. 14:57:43 Gizmokid2005 Okay, the team seems pretty small.. Is he hanging around here sometimes or any ideas on how to contact? 14:58:18 Contact info can be found here: http://portableapps.com/about/contact#development 15:01:43 Gizmokid2005: Silly me, thanks for the link - I sent mail! :) 16:45:44 *** pa_5553 (5dc5ff21@gateway/web/freenode/ip.93.197.255.33) has joined #portableapps 16:46:25 Small correction to your website 16:47:51 The page for TyperTask says "Learn more about TinyTask," which is a different application by the same developer. 16:48:19 Should probably read: "Learn more about TyperTask" instead. 16:48:33 Bye! 16:52:54 *** pa_5553 has quit (Ping timeout: 246 seconds) 17:11:15 *** pa_4536 (61409cf2@gateway/web/freenode/ip.97.64.156.242) has joined #portableapps 17:13:40 Getting my SonicWALL telling ne the latest PortableApps Platform (both the upgrade from 12.0.x and the full installer) are a trojan (Identified as Name: VB.A_77). Is this a false positive? Has someone verified lately that the files up on the site have not been tampered with (the release dates seemed a little late relative to the announcment of the new release in the forums) 17:20:08 I noticed on the site where it's noted that this isn't an uncommon occurance with AV scanners and would like to tell Dell that they need to loosen up on the scanner in this particular instance, but I just wanted to be sure I got some confirmations first before telling them their scanner has a false positive. 17:31:50 Hello? 17:33:22 pa_4536: http://portableapps.com/support#false_positive 17:36:13 Yes I saw that, I just wanted to be sure that (if I temporarily disable the scanner on that definition) that the download hasn't been tampered with. Is the MD5 hash for the full installer or the upgrade? 17:36:33 The hash on this page: http://portableapps.com/download 17:37:29 The upgrade is still the full installer, so the MD5 is going to be the same. 17:38:06 But they're reporting different sizes. 17:39:01 What's the size of the download? 17:39:55 the updater from 12.0.5 is showing 2 M, the full installer is 3.6 M on http://iweb.dl.sourceforge.net/project/portableapps/PortableApps.com%20Platform/ 17:40:27 12.0.x I should say technically 17:40:56 Ah yes. The updates on the platform itself. 17:41:12 the MD5 on the download page is definitely for the full installer, not the update 17:41:49 Ok, so if I run the full installer it won't really make any difference over running the update on my 12.0.5 install? 17:42:05 Correct. 17:42:11 because the installers don't override the data. 17:42:32 Ah, ok, gotcha. 17:43:11 Why bother with an upgard though given it's only 1.6 M difference? 17:43:18 *upgrade 17:44:58 because 1.6M makes a big difference for some people, and it saves a lot of bandwidth costs for the project. 17:46:38 Ya, I was going to say, any more 1.6 meg isn't too much of a difference ... unless you're on dial-up (shudders). I hear ya on the bandwidth costs though ;-) 17:48:37 * pa_4536 checking MD5 hash of file 17:49:33 Those with metered connections too though. 17:49:36 1.6M is quite a bit. 17:51:50 It can be, especially in the aggregate. 17:52:33 Hash checks out. Time to report a couple false positives to Dell. 17:54:38 Thanks for the help/info. Anything I should forward information-wise should they need to get in contact with your team? 17:57:14 Shouldn't, no. 17:58:15 Ok. Have a good day/afternoon/evening then. 17:59:41 *** pa_4536 has quit (Quit: Page closed) 20:23:42 *** Azaziah has quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer)
