Unlike U3, the PortableApps menu does not track running programs, and it doesn't issue shutdown commands. There are dozens of PortableApps, including the "PortableApps Suite TM", which includes OpenOffice, FireFox, ClamWin antivirus, e-mail, and even a good Sodoku game. These are programs which have a PortableApps-compliant "launcher", which ensures orderly startup/shutdown without contaminating the host PC. From there, you can launch your "Portable Apps". Just select "Start PortableApps" from the windows autorun dialog when you insert the drive (or start it manually from the top directory of the drive), and the menu will be accessible from an icon in your systray. Haller, PortableApps is a menu system that will "auto-run" on device insertion. But you can add the PortableApps framework for free! Developed by John T.

Unless you have a " U3 Smart" drive, your removable flash drive probably has no launcher software.
