<![CDATA[[Implemented] Show updates for Portable Applications]]>VulnDetect should also list Portable Applications (applications that can be executed without installation) and also offer updated for Portable Applications.

I have many Portable Applications, like:

  • Mozilla Firefox
  • Google Chrome
  • Opera
  • System Explorer
  • Notepad++
  • … (many other smaller tools)

  • Firefox (Portable)
  • VLC media player (Portable)

This way users see what applications are portable and what applications are installed.
