even though I've set another path installed (and in another drive/partition),
they aren't detected

I even restarted the app but still not detected

can somebody help with this?

I've got plenty of them, installed (the most of them at least) via the portableapps platform

Hi,

The portable app detection will only detect portable apps downloaded from Patch My PC initially.

well I tried, but as you said, using patchmypc, portable apps are only downloaded and not installed ???

What do you mean by installed? Portable apps don't install they are just binary files you can run without an installer.

I downloaded dos something from the app and when I tried to run it, it wanted to install itself

DosBox doesn't install, it just extract its portable files to a new folder!
