11:44:35 <pa_5823> Hi. I made a new installation of PA on my USB-Stick and it worked fine. But today when i tried to start, it didn't. The launch process stopped after a while. Can you help?

16:37:42 <Azaziah_Second> Hi! So I'm using OpenLP portable and I'm receiving portable errors in English instead of my native language Finnish Hi! So I'm using OpenLP portable and I'm receiving portable errors in English instead of my native language Finnish
16:38:23 <Azaziah_Second> http://portableapps.com/node/22997 this list claims that Finnish is missing the last 6 translation strings
16:39:01 *** Azaziah_2 has quit (Ping timeout: 246 seconds)
16:39:31 <Azaziah_Second> So I thought I could translate the missing ones if the list is still accurate

17:13:49 <Azaziah_Second> http://sourceforge.net/p/portableapps/launcher/ci/default/tree/Other/Source/Languages/ I picked the Finnish file from there and added the missing translations there..

20:04:02 <zoom> hellu
20:04:41 <zoom> I have a question that is difficult to search for, due to the perspective of all search terms...
20:06:15 <zoom> I'd like to create a couple of portable apps out of ones that I have on my computer. I could've swore I found an automated generic way to do this years ago, but I don't know what it was. Basically I want to make 2 programs that are already "portable" such that they are loadable into the portableapps launcher
20:08:14 <zoom> help!

23:52:11 <zer> hey guys
23:52:25 <zer> I am trying to pin PChatPortable to my windows task bar
23:52:37 <zer> but when you launch it, it runs the wrong EXE file and says all the configuration isn't found and it's messed up
23:53:14 <zer> Is there a portable IRC client that works like a regular program without a second wrapper EXE so it can actually be pinned to the taskbar?
23:56:51 <Gizmokid2005> zer: not that's portable. Any portable app needs the launcher to setup the environment for the program to run.
23:57:20 <zer> Well, it works for ProcessExplorer which is portable
23:57:33 <zer> you can pin that one, and it extracts a 64 bit process explorer from within its own EXE
23:58:25 <zer> also if I use VMWare Thinapp to make the PChat portable then it works and can be pinned
23:58:40 <zer> so you just need a better environment
23:59:39 <zer> Why can't PChatPortable.exe contain PChat.exe inside it, and extract it, then load that thing's base address and execute?
