Title: PMPC downloads unwanted portable apps
Post by: MK Wales on August 08, 2024, 01:00:02 AM
Hi
Apologies if this has been covered elsewhere, but I couldn't find the solution.
PMPC does a great job finding updates for my apps, but also automatically downloads unwanted portable apps, such as TOR browser.
I can't find a way to prevent it doing so.
Thanks
Mike

It seems to me that when you download, there are checkboxes that need to be disabled

Thanks - but all the boxes are unchecked.

Sorted - right click on the app, and select option not to scan for it.

Right click and "Reset portable's app status" actually! This will remove it from detection and it will not update anymore! unless you select it again :)
