The root directory should be called FooPortable and have a file called FooPortable.exe as the launcher.
App/ should contain the application, Data/ should have the data, and Other/ should have anything else. Installing the same software to work faster would need you to carry it wherever you are or download huge files and pay for multiple licenses. If you want it in Platform format, the only difference is that you need to stick to a certain set of naming. Well, the software is usually installed on individual PCs and when you are using another PC, be it in office, college, a friend’s home or elsewhere, you cannot expect the same software to be installed. A simple string replacement of $OLDDIRECTORY with $NEWDIRECTORY should work. We also need to make some adjustments in the data, since there are file paths stored there. VLC doesn't seem to touch the registry, so we should be fine there. VLC uses AppData\Roaming\vlc for most of its data, so we need to set that up before running it, and move it back to the USB drive afterwards (assuming we want to carry our data around). Run the application and do the same as beforeĬreate a launcher to create the relevant files before running the program, and remove them afterwardsįor example, let's say I was going to make a portable version of VLC.
Most of the relevant ones will be in HKLM/HKCU There is a bunch of stuff you can ignore, such as the most-recently used application list in the registry. Occasionally, it'll be in weirder places. Install the application and find out what data it creates - This is usually in AppData and/or the registry. Set up an application monitor (such as ProcMon) If the application you just installed requires a PC reboot, go ahead but don’t click on the ‘Install Done’ button.I used to create launchers for. Once the software is installed, click on the ‘Install Done’ button in the Cameyo window. Once it completes, you will be asked to install your desired software as usual while the Cameyo utility is running in the background, recording a log of all the changes the new software makes to the PC. This will take a while and depends on how fast your PC is and how many programs are already installed on the PC. Now the utility starts working in the background and takes a complete screenshot of your computer’s operating system in the present state. The interface will change to a new page with three icons. But if what you want is not listed, you will need to create it.
You can simply browse through the apps and if they are already there, simply download them and avoid the trouble of making them yourself. Start Cameyo and you will be greeted with a huge listing of all the portable apps that have already been made and distributed for free. Method 1: Creating portable apps on your own PC
