Errr,
What's the point of a portable (USB) replacement for the Windows Scheduler? And if there would be a point, doesn't this disqualify itself for writing to the Windows Registry?

Hey, nice to see other PowerPro users.

I got rid of Windows Scheduler and use nnCron instead. Very simple, flexible, and it uses the unix crontab format.

@Shadeclan: Maybe your virus scanner software makes a full scan of all exe files when the menu is displayed, although the files are just opened to pick the icon. (I had the same problem when I used "MS Essentials" for a while.)

I'm having the same problem with another launcher, and horst explanation seems pretty accurate to me...

michel: copying something into a file with a proprietary format will corrupt the file; use the provided functions!

You no longer have to use Universal Extractor.
The Regular installer now has a compact option.
http://www.theword.gr/index.php?article.portable&l=english
While installing it will ask you what type
of installation.
Pick compact.
Now the "portable" check-mark
should become avalible.
Click it.
Now just point it to your portable drive,
and you are good to go.
