Hi,
Excuse my english 
For my school, I would like to run ChromePortable from a network folder : The folder is "read only", and Chrome ask of course to "temporaly copy it to the local drive and tun it from there".
My question :
- Can I force the path of this temp folder in a command line ?
In exemple : ...\apps\GoogleChromePortable.exe -t "U:\User\Chrome-Temp"
...and in a 'silent' (invisible) mode.
Thank you.

That's different. It's not a Chrome TEMP directory, it's a matter of the whole directory Chrome is in being read-only. Take a look at Other\Source\Readme.txt; I think Chrome supports "live mode" (RunLocally). But if you do this, your settings will not be saved. What you should do is get the permissions correct so that you can modify the directory Chrome is in.

Thanks.
I don't have Readme.txt in Other\Source
and... I didn't find how to execute chrome in "live mode"
but
I'm trying another solution with the GoogleChromePortable.ini file.
It allow to add command line arguments : With "user-data-dir" it could be possible, but : Chrome doesn't "understand" the path "%username%" or another network drive as "U:" ... It creates a "U" folder...
.. I have almost found !
(In french :"j'y suis presque !")
Thanks for your help !
Ok, It's my fault.
I did write a wrong argument line. (forgot the first minus...)
Now, With -user-data-dir="the_good_network_path", it works !
Thanks for help !
bye.
