02:14:04 *** Cyan is now known as Guest94437
02:14:14 *** Guest94437 is now known as help
02:14:22 <help> Heh.
02:14:34 *** help is now known as CyanLights
02:15:12 <CyanLights> There we go. "help!", as the title bar so eloquently put it. I'm getting a runtime error 216 at address 00405EBA.
02:15:58 <Gizmokid2005> CyanLights: we need a bit more information than that.
02:16:05 <Gizmokid2005> An error in what, exactly?
02:16:13 <Gizmokid2005> what os are you using?
02:16:14 <Gizmokid2005> what are you doing?
02:16:15 <CyanLights> When launching PortableAppsPlatform.exe or starting from the root folder.
02:16:26 <CyanLights> Windows 8.1, just installed the latest stable version of PortableApps.
02:16:59 <Gizmokid2005> where are you running it from?
02:17:07 <CyanLights> 16GB flash drive.
02:17:20 <Gizmokid2005> if you run it from your desktop does the same happen?
02:17:33 <CyanLights> Haven't tried as I set the install path to the flash drive.
02:17:39 <Gizmokid2005> give a shot real quick
02:17:43 <Gizmokid2005> see if you get the same error
02:17:45 <CyanLights> Sure, hang on.
02:18:42 <CyanLights> No, but once I launched it it started the autoconfig thing that happens when you change directories on PortableApps.
02:19:15 <CyanLights> nvm that's it noticing my autoconf file, not different directories
02:19:16 <Gizmokid2005> did you just copy/paste?
02:19:35 <CyanLights> Yes
02:19:41 <Gizmokid2005> pa would also do that too
02:19:44 <Gizmokid2005> because it's install dir changed
02:20:02 <Gizmokid2005> It could be some kind of AV or windows 8 thing that's blocking some kind of access over the USB storage
02:20:09 <Gizmokid2005> if it works fine (especially copy/pasting) to the desktop
02:20:24 <Gizmokid2005> then it's probably an access issue somewhere. Whether it be "security" software or otherwise.
02:20:29 <CyanLights> This is a FAT32 drive, in case it matters.
02:20:35 <Gizmokid2005> It /shouldn't/
02:20:48 <CyanLights> As my main desktop drive is a 256GB SSD, that may be the cause of the problem, but who knows.
02:21:10 <CyanLights> Also, my security software doesn't do application restriction or stuff like that
02:21:23 <Gizmokid2005> It could be something win8.1 specific though.
02:21:31 <Gizmokid2005> I know I didn't have the issue on win8, but I never used 8.1 with PA
02:21:36 <Gizmokid2005> especially 8.1U1
02:21:59 <CyanLights> I've done this before on the same system, and even installed Arch Linux once.
02:22:39 <Gizmokid2005> if the copy/paste works from a local drive but it doesn't work from the attached storage, it leads to something blocking it or some kind of issue with that attached drive
02:22:44 <Gizmokid2005> the software is working as designed
02:22:54 <CyanLights> It's probably something with the flash drive, as I've never used this model before. Off-hand, do you know if PA supports EXT filesystems?
02:23:13 <Gizmokid2005> well, it's windows applications, so that might not work
02:23:23 <CyanLights> True. I'll try NFTS, then.
02:23:25 <Gizmokid2005> I know /most/ things will work via wine, but how that translates through to EXT access, I don't know.
02:23:37 <Gizmokid2005> NTFS or exFAT should be fine
