13:34:20 <Tim_2844> I'm having trouble with Portable Apps updates of existing apps
13:34:55 <Tim_2844> I have a couple of Portable Apps that are the default Windows Apps
13:35:33 <Tim_2844> For example: Foxit Reader for Opening PDF files, Mozilla Firefox web browser
13:36:06 <Tim_2844> When these are updated via the Portable Apps updater, it sometimes fails to delete
13:36:31 <Tim_2844> the main app directories (the ones containing the actual EXE files).
13:37:20 <Tim_2844> Usually, the problem can be solved by a reboot, but then it is difficult to re-install the program
13:37:43 <Tim_2844> I usually have to download the program's PAF file and re-install manually.
13:38:34 <Tim_2844> Is it possible for Portable Apps to add a "re-install" option to the right-click menu
13:39:02 <Tim_2844> as well as the current "uninstall" option. This would help because I would be able to
13:39:31 <Tim_2844> keep the settings (preferences) I have established for these apps. Comments/
13:39:36 <Tim_2844> Comments??
13:40:37 <Tim_2844> Should I be posting this in the forums?
13:46:04 <Tim_2844> Oh well - Got to go ...

16:06:26 <BaronVonJackal> Hey there! I had a quick question. Is there a way to redirect my directories for PortableApps?
