I have installed portable KeePass on my USB drive. When trying to access it on a remote pc it will say that the file is ot recognized and ask me to list a program to open it with. I must have botched the installation. help?

What file are you talking about? The KeepassPortable.exe or your database?
Most likely reinstalling will fix the problem. All your data will be preserved on upgrade (unless you have put your database inside the KeepassPortable/App folder).

You need to open KeePass Portable and then use file open to open your database. You can set it to automatically open your last opened file. The KeePassPortable.exe launcher will adjust this selection as your drive letter changes so it will keep opening.
Sometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!
You say "When trying to access it on a remote pc …", you're not trying to use it from a UNC path (e.g.
\\Server\path\to\share\KeePassPortable) are you? UNC paths are unsupported, if you need to use it over a network, map the Network Share to a Drive Letter.~3D1T0R
