Kanri Portable?

Seems like Kanri portable is anything but portable:
AppData/Local/tech.trobonox.kanri/*

Stores loads of files (electron?) in the appdata folder. Nice app, but need to avoid as it's really not very portable.

Moves Back and Forth

It moves those files back and forth on open and close, backing up and restoring anything that was already there. It's not an Electron app.

Thanks John, It doesn't work

Thanks John, It doesn't work for me I'm afraid, on close all the data is still in the appData folder. Tried it several times. I have Kanri on a removeable drive, computer is win11, 64bit.

How Starting?

How are you launching the app? Running KanriPortable.exe directly? Via the PA.c Platform?

Working Here

I just fired up a fresh install of Kanri Portable on an updated Windows 11 virtual machine. It ran as expected. tech.trobonox.kanri was there while running and removed as soon as I exited. Is the app fully closing when you close it? (check Task Manager) Do you have something blocking the folder from being removed like having it open in an Explorer window?

No, I don't have anything

No, I don't have anything causing it not to close properly. Nothing in task manager. Doesn't matter how many times I try it, the folder remains in appData. I have also now tested it on my laptop (also Win 11) and that is the same. No problem, looks like this one won't work for me.

KanriPortable.exe Running?

Does KanriPortable.exe stay running in Task Manager until you close Kanri?
