15:04:49 <PhaseV> hello
15:08:44 <PhaseV> i am a german, sorry for my english. i have a problem with the PortableApps.com Installer. he show me an info because there multiple exe file in a directoy and i can fix this error with a config file, but on the website i dont find anything about this topic.
15:12:30 <PhaseV> im short afk
15:14:07 <AluisioASG> PhaseV: What exactly do you mean by "multiple exes in a directory"? Can you screenshot the error?
15:17:33 <PhaseV> yes that can i do. how i can paste it here?
15:22:10 <PhaseV> here i the screenshot placed http://snag.gy/At8wT.jpg
15:25:23 <AluisioASG> oh, I see. Just to be sure, you are trying to create a new portable app, right?
15:25:44 <PhaseV> yes, that is right
15:27:59 <AluisioASG> hm. Can you take a screenshot of the directory you are running it on? Better yet, a file listing?
15:29:44 <AluisioASG> Wait, I think I've found the problem.
15:30:51 <AluisioASG> If I'm reading this correctly, you likely are not following the PortableApps.com Format. Take a look here for details: http://portableapps.com/development/portableapps.com_format
15:31:16 <PhaseV> http://snag.gy/lZwOU.jpg
15:31:31 <PhaseV> that is the screenshot from the files
15:33:36 <AluisioASG> Yep. That was the problem. Please check the page I linked to.
15:33:45 <PhaseV> ok
15:34:23 <PhaseV> do you know if it is also available in German?
15:39:39 <AluisioASG> I don't think so.
15:40:36 <AluisioASG> Anyway, I have to go now for lunch. If you need further assistance, please ask in the forums ( there is a German forum at http://portableapps.com/forums/languages/german ).
15:42:16 <PhaseV> okay, I'll google it after that time. but I thank you for your help
16:33:30 <PhaseV> bye

22:12:13 <Likeasumbooooody> How do i remove write-protection on my USB?
22:12:14 <sar3th> Likeasumbooooody: please describe your problem
22:12:29 <sar3th> well, probably there is a hardware switch
22:12:55 <Likeasumbooooody> No, there def isn't.
22:13:30 <Likeasumbooooody> I have a non brand type USB all it says on the whole thing is USB 2.0 and 256gb
22:13:46 <AluisioASG> How much did you pay for 256GB?
22:14:01 <Likeasumbooooody> oh like 90bucks NZD
22:14:07 <Likeasumbooooody> which is about $65USD
22:14:17 <Likeasumbooooody> no actually 80NZ
22:14:41 <AluisioASG> No brand?
22:14:48 <Likeasumbooooody> yeah, no brand.
22:15:15 <Likeasumbooooody> but it CAN function, albeit inconsistent
22:17:03 <Likeasumbooooody> hello?
22:17:23 <AluisioASG> Likeasumbooooody: hold on
22:18:06 <AluisioASG> Likeasumbooooody: how much space is being used? Also, can you delete something from it?
22:18:17 <AluisioASG> Also, try checking it for errors.
22:20:09 <Likeasumbooooody> Space being used isn't much
22:22:15 <Likeasumbooooody> I honestly think it's faulty eh...now i can't even open the bastard!
22:22:45 <Likeasumbooooody> grrrrrrrrr
22:24:22 <Likeasumbooooody> It won't respond now when i try to open files in it
22:24:44 <sar3th> seems like you have some issues with your hardware
22:28:32 <Likeasumbooooody> yeah, anything that can be sorted out?
22:28:59 <Likeasumbooooody> I'll never buy a USB stick again (or at least one w/o a brand!) lesson learned.
22:29:37 *** pa_6728 has quit (Ping timeout: 245 seconds)
22:31:59 <sar3th> not sure about that actually
22:32:05 <sar3th> maybe you can try running checkdisk
22:32:26 <Gizmokid2005> Sounds like you got cheap-o bad hardware Likeasumbooooody
22:32:29 <Likeasumbooooody> what is checkdisk?
22:32:36 <Gizmokid2005> there's no way a $65 USB drive is 256GB and legitimate
22:32:38 <Gizmokid2005> not yet at least.
22:32:47 <Gizmokid2005> not if it's an actual thumbdrive size disk.
22:33:00 <Likeasumbooooody> dude i won it on a auction site here down under...
22:33:09 <Likeasumbooooody> they can go even cheaper thesedays
22:33:40 <Gizmokid2005> yeah, not for one that's going to be working: https://www.google.com/search?q=256gb+usb+flash+drive&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a#q=256gb+usb+flash+drive&hl=en&safe=off&client=firefox-a&hs=IfS&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&source=univ&tbm=shop&tbo=u&sa=X&ei=seYrUcSvAZD09gSl4YHIAw&ved=0CPgBELMY&bav=on.2,or.r_gc.r_pw.r_cp.r_qf.&bvm=bv.42768644,d.eWU&fp=412af
22:33:51 <Gizmokid2005> they're pushing ~$200+ for a name brand one.
22:34:14 <Gizmokid2005> besides, first you said you paid 90NZD, but now you won it?
22:34:24 <AluisioASG> Likeasumbooooody: go to My Computer, right-click the drive, 'Properties', 'Tools', 'Check for errors' (or something like that).
22:34:33 <AluisioASG> Gizmokid2005: on an auction
22:36:42 <Likeasumbooooody> I "won the auction" and paid 80NZD YES!
22:36:55 <Likeasumbooooody> ok i'll check that out aluisio
22:38:55 <Likeasumbooooody> It's prolly got a virus on it or sumting
22:39:04 <Likeasumbooooody> Cheap chinese shit...
