Portable Firefox is Windows only.
It would be truer to say that PortableApps itself is Windows only. The menu, the other apps, all targeted solely at Windows.
Does openVMS Alpha offer the ability to run any other Windows application, similar to the use of the wine non-emulator on Linux or BSD? If so, Firefox portable and similar applications from this site MAY work. Many of them are usable under Linux (my particular choice) and some don't work. The problems don't seem to be because of the launchers (the program that makes it portable) or the installers; rather whether the original application does something the OS doesn't support.
