Portable App Compiler (Portablizer) v1.0

Hi! This is my second forum post here now.

Yesterday when I posted the Scratch Portable, I thought I would have to spend ages on turning tons of more softwares into portable ones. However, after thinking that, I had an idea. A piece of software that turns any program into a portable program. I named it the Portable App Compiler (or Portablizer for short). It is currently really basic, and might never get any updates, but it gets the job done.

Download the extractor from below, and set it to extract anywhere (e.g. your Desktop). Upon completion, open the newly made folder and follow the steps from there in the readme.txt file. It utilizes the command-line software png2ico for the software icon, so kudos to the developers who made that.

Lots of people have tried this and usually forget one thing or another and then end up looking at previous work and going, oh

Well...

It works fine, no problems apart from the registry but most programs will just use the main computer registry (if need be).

Thanks for reading my post. Biggrin

So why bother with an app,

So why bother with an app, that does not comply with the PA.c guidelines? Registry handling is one of the key principles.
