December 2nd, 2009 · 1 Comment · PortableApps, Programming, Windows
Another new Google Chrome Portable! I’ve been working on other stuff too, really! Just trying to get the bugs that people report to me out of the way… Biggest change is the Portable Passwords feature. It’s opt-in so you’ll need to use the INI to enable it since it creates a bit of a hassle [...]

EasyScreenshot.NET 1.6.2
July 6th, 2009 · 1 Comment · Windows
