I don't know why, though I suspect it was my fault it didn't work as I don't think I compiled and saved after making changes. Which file from the source folder would need editing and what line do I need to change?

How do I change the text that appears in either menu? Rather than have to rename apps within menu's, I'd like to know how to change the default name - 'winPenPack X-Launcher' - to the $AppName$. So I tried changing my X-KnobMan X-Launcher icon but if I rename or move the exe it changes to the default wPP icon? I will however try out your instructions at a more appropriate time and let you know how I get on. Though I have very basic knowledge on how to use it!!! But it saves most apps that use AppData so that's pretty much solved the issues I have with apps such as PartitionWizard, WinRAR, MacriumReflect, KnobMan and a few others.

I also found useful the X-Launcher for creating portable versions of my favourite semi-portable apps. So I have both menu's, though I'm trying to rid myself of PA.com menu. Recently I came across SyMenu, which has an amazing concept, add any app to the database and it can be auto-updated!

Though I have searched for a replacement due to it's slow progress and few apps, plus you can't just add your own. As my interest and knowledge grew, as well as my app collection, I realised the importance of auto-updates, hence I stuck with this menu to this day. I started my portable venture with PortableAppsMenu around 2008, purely for portability. I am using the latest versions of these apps:Ī little background info so you may understand my purpose: Sorry for my inadequate posts lacking information! That's a great help, thanks for the detailed reply P.S.: if you run into issues using old Windows OS with the latest AutoIt 3.3.x version, try with the 3.2.12.1 -Link. \graphics, by default it's wPP iconĦ) in SciTe click on Tools\Compile (Ctrl+F7)\Compile Scriptħ) your brand new X-launcher.exe is created in the main directory X-Launcher_source having icon = x.icon.icoīy playing with the lines of the code in 3 you may choose icon, product name, product version, etc. Please, tell me exactly which app-icon are you trying to change using Resource Hacker (is it an X-launcher or winPenPackNet.exe?), I will try to reproduce your case.Ībout AutoIt3, I write in few steps how to compile an X-launcher:ġ) download AutoIt3 -Link-, unpack it, it should already contain SciTe subfolder (can't remember), if not get it from -Link- ( SciTE4AutoIt3_Portable.zip)Ģ) download -Link- and unpack into a folder named X-Launcher_sourceĤ) open 3 from X-Launcher_sourceĥ) move your x-icon.ico into subfolder.
