00:37:38 <sar3th> Roadran422, most people here are idle, i.e. they aren't always here, so it's best to ask your question and see if someone responds (and wait for some time before leaving)
00:37:41 <sar3th> so ask away

00:49:22 <sar3th> Roadran422, well, i don't really see your question :<
00:49:32 <pa_3295> qBittorent is now on version 2.9.5 the version in portable apps is on version 2.9.2
00:49:47 <sar3th> and the logs should be back online now Roadran422
00:50:32 <Roadran422> sar3th, Ok xD
00:50:38 <Roadran422> And my question lol
00:50:47 <Roadran422> How do I install a bunch of portable apps at once?
00:51:19 <pa_3295> its been like that for quite a while, first with version 2.9.2, now 2.9.5
00:51:23 <pa_3295> you don't
00:51:37 <Roadran422> I can't make a suite?
00:51:43 <pa_3295> only updates go at once
00:51:59 <Roadran422> I have 24 apps to install. And I don't have a flash drive I am doing a test install
00:52:03 <sar3th> Roadran422, you can either install the suite or use the updater
00:52:11 <Roadran422> Can I make a suite?
00:52:18 <sar3th> oh, and you can install them from the platform itself
00:52:27 <Roadran422> 1 by 1 or all?
00:52:35 <sar3th> that should actually suppress most messages
00:52:38 <sar3th> one by one i think
00:52:46 <Roadran422> I have to install 26 derp....
00:52:57 <pa_3295> one by one, its unfortunatly no near apt and synaptic
00:53:05 <Roadran422> :P Ok here I go lol
00:53:28 <sar3th> and pa_3295, updating apps is up the the individual developer and John
00:54:16 <pa_3295> need new version of qbittorent

00:55:09 <kAlug> Roadran422: You can select and install them at once.
00:55:17 <Roadran422> I am right now... It sucks
00:55:21 <kAlug> *install them all*
00:55:41 <Roadran422> ?
00:56:45 <pa_3295> if not for the lack of AMD drivers, I would be using Transmission
00:56:53 <kAlug> If you use the App Directory: http://cdn.portableapps.com/_features_-_app_directory.png
00:57:17 <kAlug> pa_3295: When was the latest qBittorrent released?
00:57:30 <pa_3295> 18th
00:58:01 <kAlug> Hmm... not in the outdated list...
00:58:21 <pa_3295> its been like that for the last two versions
00:59:42 <kAlug> It seems that there are no official binaries for 2.9.5, only for 2.9.3.
00:59:59 <Roadran422> Now I have a problem about renaming exe
01:00:18 <Roadran422> Files must end in _online.paf.exe?
01:00:20 <Roadran422> Something liek that
01:00:36 <kAlug> Online installers do.
01:00:44 <Roadran422> Whatdo I do?
01:00:56 <kAlug> Rename them.
01:00:58 <pa_3295> 2.9.2 to 2.9.3 would be upgrade
01:01:09 <Roadran422> To this "_online.paf.exe?"
01:01:45 *** pa_3295 has quit (Quit: Page closed)
01:01:53 <kAlug> It should be currently named SomethingPortable_X.X.paf.exe. Change it to SomethingPortable_X.X_online.paf.exe.
01:02:00 <Roadran422> Ok thanks
01:02:10 <Roadran422> Why? It's a time waster
01:02:14 <Roadran422> What use is this?
01:03:16 <kAlug> If I remember correctly, to make sure people know it's an online installer.

01:03:25 <Roadran422> Well skype couldn't be installed XD
01:03:41 <pa_5382> https://github.com/cdumez/qBittorrent
01:04:03 <kAlug> Yes, Skype is an online installer. So it needs _online.paf.exe in the name.
01:04:16 <Roadran422> The download file couldn't be found
01:04:43 <kAlug> Maybe you're being blocked from downloading Skype.
01:04:51 <Roadran422> Nothing came up from eset
01:04:53 <pa_5382> skype is closed source
01:05:26 <Roadran422> Imgburn download succesffuly
01:05:34 <pa_5382> skype is closed source
01:05:42 <kAlug> pa_5382: Yes, it is.
01:06:15 <kAlug> Roadran422: I've forgot to ask: is the error when downloading the paf.exe or when running it?
01:06:21 <Roadran422> When running
01:06:46 <kAlug> pa_5382: What's that link for?
01:07:04 <pa_5382> qbittorent is now in github
01:07:39 <pa_5382> and in version 2.9.5 not 2.9.2 as in portableapps
01:08:08 <pa_5382> will wait patiently for the update. thanks
01:08:11 *** pa_5382 has quit (Client Quit)
01:08:15 <kAlug> Roadran422: Right-click the installer, click Properties, go to the Version Information tab and find an item called DownloadURL (something like that). It's value is an URL. Try downloading it.
01:09:16 <Roadran422> I'm on windows... Where?
01:09:39 <kAlug> Hold on, I'm looking for a better guide.
01:09:56 <Roadran422> Thanks
01:14:07 <kAlug> Roadran422: Are you using Windows 7?
01:14:24 <Roadran422> Yes sir
01:17:40 <kAlug> Alright, try downloading http://download.skype.com/msi/SkypeSetup_5.8.0.156.msi
01:17:49 <Roadran422> Ok that's it?
01:18:13 <kAlug> Put it in the same folder as the Skype installer.
01:18:27 <Roadran422> Ok
01:33:08 <Roadran422> Works!
01:33:11 <Roadran422> Thanks kAlug !

01:39:31 <Need_Uninstall_H> I would like to know how to uninstall portableapps
01:40:04 <Need_Uninstall_H> Do you just delete the folder?
01:41:08 *** Need_Uninstall_H is now known as [Ben]
01:42:07 <kAlug> [Ben]: Hold on.
01:42:38 <kAlug> Yes. Just delete it. Remember your settings are inside it too.
01:43:11 <Roadran422> And now! I have a usb nuke!
01:43:31 <[Ben]> I plan to reinstall it directly to my flash drive, instead of a folder inside it. Thanks @KAlug.
01:43:54 <kAlug> You can try moving it.
01:44:04 <kAlug> Some apps support that, some don't.
01:44:05 <Roadran422> Do a backup
01:44:18 <Roadran422> Do a backup, then install the platform and restore backup
01:45:11 <[Ben]> I'll do that, I'm new to this platform, just switched from U3 Launchpad.
01:46:07 <Roadran422> kAlug, 1. Very Very Very Very Very last thing... (Feelinging like i've been asking for a bit xD) Any mods or any UI tweaks you recommend?
01:46:35 <kAlug> For the Platform? I'm not aware of any.
01:46:38 <[Ben]> Not yet, thanks for asking, though.
01:46:51 <[Ben]> It won't let me delete the folder, the little launchpad is closed even.
01:46:55 <Roadran422> kAlug, Yah... Idk just some cool tweaks to make it cooler? lol
01:47:10 <Roadran422> [Ben], You want to remove u3?
01:47:18 <[Ben]> I've got one: more themes.
01:47:32 <Roadran422> Where?
01:47:55 <[Ben]> Add the ability to use a picture as the background for the launchpad.

01:50:01 <Roadran422> Ok :)
01:50:11 <Roadran422> I love thie portable app idea! The best ever!

16:44:13 <HighMan> Still XD
16:44:34 <HighMan> So what do I do..
16:45:05 <kAlug> Just install it as any other app and read the instructions on that page.
16:45:10 <HighMan> Ok
16:45:58 <HighMan> Will it always redirect to the flash drive?
16:46:03 <kAlug> Where it says x:\FolderzMiniApp\App\Appinfo\appinfo.ini, it is actually x:\PortableApps\FolderzMiniApp\App\Appinfo\appinfo.ini
16:46:47 <HighMan> I got it
16:48:10 <kAlug> And install it to X:\PortableApps.
16:48:36 <HighMan> I installed it, but how do I change the path of one of the files?
16:49:56 <kAlug> Open the file I mentioned above and change the paths in Start1, Start2, ... at the end of the file.
16:50:17 <HighMan> Ok. Let's see
16:50:36 <kAlug> Remember to start the paths with ..\..\ (i.e. the root of the drive)
16:51:28 <HighMan> Got it! Thanks!

19:41:40 <GordCaswell> so your recompiled version still has issues with the launcher?
19:42:02 <PatrickPOwell> yup hang on sec
19:42:33 <PatrickPOwell> but unlike previous build the app itself took 20 secs to load
19:43:05 <GordCaswell> odd
19:43:23 <PatrickPOwell> check your email for full details
19:46:12 <PatrickPOwell> I did everything I could think of but as soon as the launcher kick in to manage the files it slows down to snail pace

20:54:27 <HighMan> 3. An option to install ALOT of apps at one time without doing it manually.
20:54:52 <HighMan> 4. User chosen folders instead of Music Documents etc.
20:54:55 <PatrickPOwell> 3 is taken care of if you use the app store
20:55:17 <PatrickPOwell> best bet would be to note them in the forum
20:55:22 <HighMan> True for the app store.
20:55:26 <HighMan> And Will do! :)
20:55:50 <PatrickPOwell> In fact I got crazy one night and downloaded every available official release
20:56:10 <HighMan> ... I'm not that in to it...
20:56:14 <HighMan> PatrickPOwell, Where in the form?
20:56:43 <PatrickPOwell> forum

20:57:37 <sar3th> remain visible might be what you want
20:57:51 <HighMan> Oh! I never new that... I'd reckon it would be in the options XD
20:59:33 <sar3th> :)
21:03:59 <HighMan> Still won't be on top? If I drag a window over it... It disappears
21:10:22 <HighMan> I also tested if I set "RemainVisible=False" And click somewhere, the app minimizes. If it's true it stays on and doesn't minimize but a window still covers it
21:11:27 <HighMan> Now it just gets covered
21:11:49 <HighMan> Nope now it minimizes!
21:11:53 <HighMan> If set to false.
21:12:44 <HighMan> It ain't working right. It be borked.
21:19:10 <PatrickPOwell> bbl
21:19:27 <HighMan> Ok... cya

23:33:47 <HighMan> Can someone help me with file associations? Expresso and Portable associations is crashing my explorer
23:36:26 <kAlug> HighMan: hold on.
23:36:56 <HighMan> Thanks.... lol
23:37:06 <kAlug> PatrickPowell: WRT Rednotebook, what is slow? The launcher or the app itself?
23:38:09 <PatrickPowell> Launcher BUT I think I just discovered a work around
23:38:18 <kAlug> HighMan: I have no idea of how this can happen. Does it happen with other apps?
23:39:02 <PatrickPowell> kAlug: it has to do with the cleantemp setting
23:39:05 <HighMan> I don't know, but after running expresso and failing and then portable associations... I can't do right clicks on zips?
23:39:26 <PatrickPowell> kAlug: just running a few more tests and will no for sure if I got it
23:39:41 <kAlug> Wait, right-click? You're trying to open the context menu?
23:39:48 <HighMan> Yes...
23:40:05 <kAlug> Hm.. are you sure it's not something else?
23:40:20 <HighMan> I could of sworn before running them I could right click on zips
23:40:25 <HighMan> I even tried resetting associations
23:40:41 <HighMan> Wait I discoverd someting... let me test it
23:42:22 <HighMan> That's weird... Only this file crashes XD
23:42:58 <HighMan> Ok... Looks like it's window's fault.
23:43:04 <HighMan> But now, how do I use expresso?
23:45:27 <kAlug> Open it, right-click its icon in the system tray, then Preferences->Extension Settings.
23:46:45 <HighMan> Ok
23:48:27 <HighMan> Do I have to associate all the files manually.
23:50:13 <kAlug> Not exactly.
23:50:30 <HighMan> The only thing I really need are 7-zip and VLC
23:50:37 <kAlug> Just let me find the option...
23:51:04 <HighMan> laYou are the savior of the world!
23:53:22 <PatrickPowell> HighMan: did you read the comments on the forum about auto associatiopns?
23:54:23 <PatrickPowell> HighMan: http://portableapps.com/node/27101#comment-172572
23:54:30 <kAlug> PatrickPowell: I think that it's what I'm looking for. You double-click any yet-unknown file and it asks what to do, right?
23:54:46 <HighMan> I'll look in to it
23:54:47 <PatrickPowell> look a little lower I think
23:55:06 <PatrickPowell> eXpresso already has the "normal" mode you mentioned. You just have to check "Auto Associate New To Host" in Preferences -> Association Config.
23:55:28 <PatrickPowell> it is within those 3 or 4 comments
