Speedtest by Ookla

Hi ! I'm new here, i have been looking for a way to convert the app "Speedtest by Ookla" to a portable version, it's a useful app that i would like to add to my portable apps ♥ . I wanted to try with VMWare ThinApp, but since i have upgraded to Windows 1903, i have been unable to make it work. If you are kind enough to add it to the collection i would appreciate Wink

Thank you !

Hey Kimael87,

Hey Kimael87,

I created a portableapp format of the Speedtest by Ookla but the only problem is the EULA who said that I can't distribute the app itself. And because its in a msi installer I can't extract it into the folder like I wanted and I made a post about it for helping me https://portableapps.com/node/60512. All I need to do is finish with the installation process and maybe the registery cleanup if needed.

How I do it

When I tried to do Portableapps I checked how the "official app" where made (appinfo.ini, installer.in, AppNamePortable.ini, etc) and then do it on my own. After that I checked the how_to.txt in this file with the manual and I tried a lot of thing to make it work. Finally I found some way to help me trough the procees with a virtual machine of Windows (I use 7 Pro for my test) and Sanboxie for creating a box for the app and check what the setup is creating when installed. And there is this forum to get help if needed. I hope that what you wanted to know.
