CDex

  1. The latest version CDex 2.24 cannot be downloaded. Continue to use v2.23, and modify file X:\PortableApps\CDExPortable\App\AppInfo\appinfo.ini to 2.24 to avoid upgrade notices when PortableApps starts.

Update SSH and SCP

  1. Replace folders PortableApps\PuTTYPortable and PortableApps\WinSCPPortable from the latest updated installation
  2. Replace folders PortableApps\BcoSSH and PortableApps\BcoSCP from the latest updated installation
  3. Run Apps –> Refresh App Icons within the PortableApps Platform
  4. Open X:\PortableApps\PuTTYPortable\Data\settings\putty.reg and modify all references to the private key file to match the client you're updating the installation on (reference is from “master”). Be careful not to run the registry file, but to load it in your editor, the registry values are managed by the PortableApps loader. Note that back slashes need to be escaped in registry files.
    "PublicKeyFile"="\\Security\\SSH\\master_id_ecdsa.ppk"
    "PublicKeyFile"="\\Security\\SSH\\client_id_ecdsa.ppk"
  5. Open X:\PortableApps\WinSCPPortable\Data\settings\winscp.ini and modify all references to the private key file to match the client you're updating the installation on (reference is from “master”). Note that back slashes and spaces need to be entered with their hex char representation in the ini file.
    PublicKeyFile=%5CSecurity%5CSSH%5Cmaster_id_ecdsa.ppk
    PublicKeyFile=%5CSecurity%5CSSH%5Cclient_id_ecdsa.ppk
