Portable Updates
HexChat is natively portable. This package adds path portablization and automatically places the settings in a location compatible with the PortableApps.com Platform's update and backup features. It also adds in the appropriate VC runtime libraries so that it can run on any Vista and later Windows machine regardless of whether the library is installed locally.
Note that there was a quite old test release of HexChat Portable in the forums but that it did not conform to PortableApps.com Format. If you upgrade from that version to this official release, your older settings will not be saved or used.
