This is great.
There is just one problem, for some reason the option "Use WebKit Renderer" is disabled (Which means MathJaX support is disabled).
Any chance taking care of that?
Thank You.
Update
It seem to be ReText which requires PyQt5.
2 issues I still found:
1. It doesn't save the preference of the Live Preview set to On.
2. Could it be configured that the Documents folder in Save As will be PortableApss' Documents folder?
Thank You.
Fix WebKit renderer
The MD5 is still from DT1

The QtWebEngine is perfect!
Now, this is the MarkDown editor PortableApps suite needs.
There is one issue though, it I enable Live Preview close the program and restart it it doesn't remember to use Live Preview.
Seems like some settings are cleared.
Thank You.
You have to activate "Use live preview by default" in preferences.
ReText 7.0.1 has been released. I like how you enabled MathJax support in 7.0.0. Great job. Thanks.
Hello,
Any chance this becomes signed official release?
At the way it is many AV's just prevents this from running because it is not signed.
Thank You.
Hi mwayne,
There are small bugs in ReText 7.0.0.
Some solved in 7.0.1.
Any chance for update?
At least if they still there I will be able to contact the creators of ReText.
Thank You.

mwayne, Thank You.
When setting options in preferences, the settings are saved on the local PC.

Thank You for your hard work.
The PortableApps model allows the program to use files in those directories.
The trick is it removes it when the application is closed.
In reality it just copy the files there on launch and remove it from there on closing.
I wonder if it wasn't easier bu just using "Environment Variables" to change the location of those folders.
It goes away when it closed. Thanks for letting me know.
