I've been working on this project for a large part of my life, it's been over 18 years - and I won't let myself and the Total Commander Ultima Prime project be blamed! However, the real blow to the project was the Windows Defender antivirus program, which, about 2 months after the release of version 8.6, for some unknown reason, started blocking and FALSELY accusing the tcup86.exe file of containing a Trojan.ĭefender is part of Windows 10 and 11, which started to result in it, that for the average user, not very familiar with computers, it was practically impossible to install TC UP in the system, who uses Defender, as the default antivirus program, additionally, some users have started reporting the download link to tcup86.exe, as dangerous in Microsoft Edge browser, through the Microsoft Defender SmartScreen filter, which caused additional problems… Practically in the first week, the Przelewy24 service (on the Stipe platform) blocked the possibility of making donations via transfers in Polish Banks, so I am asking TC UP users to make donations directly to given account number.Īnother thing that took some time was adapting the site to Google's requirements, otherwise the ability to display ads would be blocked (I know that most of you don't like ads, but displaying them on this site allows you to collect at least a few euros each month, and without money, there is nothing to think about further development of TC UP). The description will be long, but please read the whole thing so that everything is understandable:Īfter the release of version 8.6 at the beginning of this year, a few strange things happened. since 2005, there has been no situation as for this version - Total Commander Ultima Prime 8.7. Since Bat-To-EXE-Converter worked so well, I also added it to a sub-menu of PA, so that I could make more in the future, should I so choose.Since the beginning of the Total Commander Ultima Prime project, i.e. Well, except for those of you reading this thread, of course. Now I have a Total Commander Portable menu item in PA and it runs my pre-configured Total Commander within the Portable Apps menu, with all my dozens of pre-configured plug-ins installed and nobody is any the wiser! I erased the ICO and BAT file and I was done. I then used BAT-To-EXE-Converter to change it into an EXE file (ghost mode) and gave it the TC icon, so that it would look pretty on the menu. Next I created a BAT file to run TC from it's new directory using notepad: The icon is fully available anywhere and free to share, so don't even start. Oh, and before all you wannabe lawyers get all up in arms, this isn't illegal. I used my favorite image editor IrfanView ( to grab an icon from TC so that I could add it to the menu, as well. I moved the full TC program into a directory like this: \PortableApps\TotalCommanderPortable\App\TotalCommander So, I went on the hunt for a BAT to EXE converter. While this works for most programs that are fully portable to begin with, I wasn't satisfied with having an irrelevant menu item in PA due to the extra EXE file. The challenge was that TC has 2 exe files in it's root directory, so I couldn't simply add a TOTALCOMMANDERPORTABLE directory within PA, because it would add both EXE files, assuming they would both work. It's the only Shareware program I will ever use.Īnyway, once I had TC configured to run on a USB key, I wanted to add it to the PA menu, so I needed to find an easy way of doing this. However, I already have one program I live and die by, that I had on my USB key: Total Commander ( ). I don't want to add dozens of applications to the already full suite of PortableApps.
