Description: WinBoard Portable is the popular WinBoard packaged with a PortableApps.com Launcher as a portable app, so you can take your chessboard with you. It has all the same great features as WinBoard including a graphical frontend for the GNU Chess and XBoard chess engines, loading and saving of PGN formatted games and more. Plus, it leaves no personal information behind on the machine you run it on, so you can take your chessboard with you wherever you go.

Release Notes:

Development Test 1 (2009-07-27): Initial release

Notes:
Following on from Ryan McCue's previous release, I have added the following...

  • Launcher and packaging updated to the latest PortableApps.com Format specs.
  • Drive letter switching (for custom sound files).
  • Registry clean-up of references (if created) to file extensions used by the game (PGN and GAM).

Install Notes:
If you are updating Ryan's previous release and are using any custom sound files you may have to re-locate them.

Tested with:
XP Home SP2 (Admin)
