Updating GoogleChromePortableSubmitted by Devo on October 29, 2009 - 2:10pm
This is probably bring up an old topic, but I think it has some merit now that GoogleChrome is official. Chrome is a quick browser, but still includes tracking features. There have been many forks (i.e., Iron) that have modified chromium to meet different needs. When GoogleChromePortable is installed, it completely removes the /GoogleChromePortable/App/ folder taking with it any fork that was installed there forcing the user to install it again. I think this should be optional, the user should be able to disable completely removing the App folder if there is a fork installed. Or better yet why not give the user the option of downloading and installing one of the many available forks? I just found this annoying when updating GoogleChromePortable to the latest revision with Iron installed. Any thoughts on this? ( categories: )

You can always use a extraction tool like 7zip to extract only the launcher (and help and source and appinfo or whatever bits you want) from the GoogleChromePortable*.paf.exe file to bypass the installer entirely, if you want.
