need more info

What specifically happens when you try to start it? Does nothing happen? Does it come up with an error? If so, what does the error say?

It has been the same for me

It has been the same for me since any of the older versions. No error message, nothing, simply no reaction.
Google Chrome simply doesn't start, and application shortcuts don't start either.
I could resolve the first issue by starting GoogleChromePortable.exe as Administrator. However, application shortcuts still don't work.

This is weird. I had to

This is weird. I had to reinstall Windows due to an SSD crash. Now I can start Google Chrome Portable without administrator rights. However, application shortcuts still don't work.

Not portable

Application shortcuts can't be portable; they're created by the browser and will point to chrome.exe, not GoogleChromePortable.exe. If you change such shortcuts from pointing to chrome.exe to GoogleChromePortable.exe, I think they should work.
