It supports upgrades by installing right over an existing copy, preserving all settings. And it's in PortableApps.com Format, so it automatically works with the PortableApps.com Suite including the Menu and Backup Utility.

I just tried to update to this, and it doesn't work:

 File Info
Name: GoogleChromePortableBeta_16.0.912.21_online.paf.exe
Size: 216 KB (221,184 bytes)
MD5 : 43c7250bdb7677f63e6fe660e3f751c4

Note: According to the UpdaterDB the proper MD5 should be 4f956a369b867ee8b42866f1a17186db

So either my Network connection is messing up the DownLoad (I doubt this, as I tested several mirrors, and always got the same [incorrect] MD5 [& bad CRC check warning when run]), or the UpLoad got messed up, which TTBOMR is fairly easy to fix once you know it should be done :).

P.S.: Why is the <u>Underline</u> tag not allowed?

One of the first rules I was taught about web design: underline should be saved for links only.

Basically it stops people getting confused and frustrated when they click something and nothing happens.

The upload only partially succeeded for some reason. I have replaced the file and it is mirroring around the download servers now. It should be fully available in about 10 minutes or so. Sorry for any inconvenience.

Sometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!
