01:44:29 <EndymionM> Hi, can sPortable be used to update Skype Portable?
01:57:02 <Gizmokid2005> EndymionM: yes, they're the same app.
01:57:17 <Gizmokid2005> It's a rebranding that's largely inconsequential.
01:57:26 <EndymionM> Gizmokid2005: Awesome, thank you.
01:57:30 <Gizmokid2005> No problem.
01:57:55 * EndymionM wanders off to update Skype so it stops crabbing.

19:29:59 <pa_4769> hi Gizmo, thx... yes error like
19:30:03 <pa_4769> failed on http://downloads.sourceforge.net/portableapps/ProcessExplorerPortable_16.20_Rev3_online.paf.exe
19:30:32 <pa_4769> failed on https://downloads.sysinternals.com/files/ProcessMonitor.zip
19:30:54 <pa_4769> failed on Err404 (not found) http://portableapps.com/redirect/?xxxxsPortable_7.34.0.103_online.paf.exe
19:30:56 <Gizmokid2005> What errors did you get?
19:31:10 <Gizmokid2005> How are you updating the apps?
19:31:26 <pa_4769> failed on Err404 (not found) http://portableapps.com/redirect/?xxxxsPortable_7.34.0.103_online.paf.exe
19:31:39 <pa_4769> failed on error 302 (redir failed) on http://portableapps.com/redirect/?xxxxTeamViewwrPortable_12.0.75813.paf.exe
19:32:03 <pa_4769> please look: some no download one 404 and one 302
19:32:23 <Gizmokid2005> How are you trying to download/update the apps?
19:32:32 <pa_4769> and i have no idea how to replace wrong links with better one
19:32:54 <pa_4769> iam upload via upload manager which starts at beginning
19:33:34 <Gizmokid2005> You're using a download manager?
19:33:50 <Gizmokid2005> That's the fault of that then. If you go to Process Explorer's page and click the download button: https://portableapps.com/apps/utilities/process-explorer-portable it works just fine.
19:33:51 <pa_4769> no
19:34:02 <Gizmokid2005> Same with Process Monitor: https://portableapps.com/apps/utilities/process-monitor-portable
19:34:29 <Gizmokid2005> Same with sPortable: https://portableapps.com/apps/internet/sportable
19:34:37 <Gizmokid2005> And with TeamviewerPortable: https://portableapps.com/apps/utilities/teamviewer_portable
19:34:44 <Gizmokid2005> I just tested all of those download links and they work just fine.
19:37:06 <pa_4769> yes these direkt links looks very Ok however, all links build insyde Update manger seems to be wrong
19:37:23 <Gizmokid2005> In what update manager?
19:38:26 <pa_4769> and another issue: the failed update links changing from time to time, sometimes it was SQL manager, but novaday its sPortable, teamviewer and other...
19:39:44 <pa_4769> hmm . Portable Apps has an InBuilt Update Manger, right? And only about this is my beg for help
19:40:12 <Gizmokid2005> So you're using the Platform to do the updates?
19:42:42 <pa_4769> yeas, iam using the pltform update, bcause manual is too expensive....
19:43:52 <pa_4769> and this platform Updater produce sometimes redirection error, notfound errors or other
19:44:14 <Gizmokid2005> Those URLs are correct. Chances are you're having issues with the connection or security software interfering
19:44:18 <Gizmokid2005> given the redirect errors.
19:44:50 <pa_4769> can i send a screensh? if so: how to?
19:44:51 <Gizmokid2005> The 404s can be cause on occasion by a sourceforge mirror that isn't updated yet.
19:45:10 <pa_4769> aha... ok.
19:45:37 <pa_4769> scenshot ? the redirection text is too difficult to typewrite
19:46:39 <pa_4769> help

19:46:47 <Gizmokid2005> pa_4769: there's nothing to fix

19:47:00 <pa_4769> ;-) sorry...
19:51:48 <pa_4769> you mean there is no help?
19:56:16 <Gizmokid2005> pa_4769: no, try again. There's nothing wrong with the updater or any of the download links.
19:57:42 <pa_4769> ok, many thanks, hope you have a nice day... the redirected Links looks other as in error screenshot. may be i tell you in nwext few days, have a nice week
