    Keymaster

    So Im a little behind the times and recently picked up one of the PNY micro attache USB drives for my keychain (after browsing throughthe keychain pic thread). Does anyone use the PortableApps Suite. I love the idea and the fact that it keeps everything on one “launcher” but have one problem.

    Say I copy a WMV to the thumb drive. I have a media player within the Suite, but when I click the file it will still try to play from Windows Media on whatever computer I am on. Same with other file types as well. Is there a generic setting to make EVERYTHING stay within the USB drive. Most of the time it really doesn’t matter, but the whole point of this thing is to have my own mini computer with me at all times. Id rather not leave a trail or I would just use the computer Im at and ignore all of these cool apps.

    Hopefully that made sense :shrug:

    edit-I also realize you can right click…”open with”. Thats what Ive been doing. Or even going through and selecting which program opens each file. But that could be a lot of work on a 4GB card.
