Use the PortableApps.com
Use the PortableApps.com Launcher.
It allows you to easily create PortableApps by defining the registry key it uses and the location of other settings.

Hi,
thanks for direction.
I did:
Install PortableApps.comLauncher
Install NSIS portable
run NSIS script F:\PortableApps\PortableApps.comLauncher\Other\Source\GeneratorWizard.nsi
I got error on line 181 but PortableApps.comLauncherGenerator.exe is generated.
Then I created folder structure on my USB key
PortableApps\ProcessExplorerPortable
procexp.chm
+App
++AppInfo
appinfo.inf
appicon.ico
++ProcessExplorer
procexp.exe
eula.txt
+Data
+Other
++Help
++Source
Run PortableApps.comLauncherGenerator.exe and point to PortableApps\ProcessExplorerPortable and then run it and everything finished OK.
But when I tried to start ProcessExplorerPortable I got error.
Process Explorer Portable cannot be started. You my wish to re-install to fix this issue. (Error: c:\users\darko\Local\Temp\nsoC732.tmp\launcher.ini could not be found)
Can someone help beacuse I'm doing something wrog but don't know what
before
you run the GeneratorWizard.nsi script you have to make sure your application is set up correctly. It should follow the file and directory layout outline here and you have to adapt/create the ProcessExplorerPortable.ini file inside the /App/AppInfo/Launcher folder. This file is application-specific and tells the Launcher what to do to make the application run portable.
