Windows Live Mail Desktop Portable?

Hi there. I'm not asking for a download for a portable version of this, but I'm just simply asking how one would be able to make this application portable. Any ideas?

Quick google:

"Thinstall packs an entire application suite into a single EXE file that is able to run directly without decompressing to disk. Software Developers can use Thinstall to protect and hide their data files from prying eyes, prevent disassembly of their EXE or DLL files, and create “no installation required” distributions of their software applications."

Expensive, Commercial

It's very expensive commercial software (costs thousands) that can virtualize some apps. It is popular in the warez (stolen software) scene.

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

Luckily

I got here in time, you should really remove the link, as you are linking to illegal software. It is not allowed, and we do not need this site to get a reputation for its members givin links to illegal software.

Hey mick1155

In the future, please don't ask for links or an e-mail or an illegal software or other illegal materials in these forums. We only permit open source software and soon portable freeware will be allowed to be promoted.

Windows Live Mail is copyrighted software, and therefore portable packaging or modification is illegal. Also, it's best not to post your e-mail in a forum (or anywhere else on the net) as you will begin receiving much more spam than you can handle.

As for alternate choice, Thunderbird Portable with the webmail extension mentioned on the Thunderbird help pages works fine for downloading Hotmail e-mail.

Thanks, and Welcome to PortableApps.com

Heh.

Nicely done, but Windows Live Mail is an email program, the replacement for Outlook Express in Vista. Blum

Ahh, I thought so

"Windows Live Mail is an email program"

I was thinking that too, but I'm not a programmer Sad so I don't know these things Blum

Live "Suite"

The Windows Live "Suite," as Paul Thurrott calls it, is basically a suite of applications (Messenger, Mail, Writer (blogging), SkyDrive (online storage), Photo Gallery, and more) that are integrated with a web interface (web apps) and a mobile interface (for Windows Mobile, Blackberry, etc). Pretty cool, if only it were OpenSource. Wink

A minor quibble

As I understand it, virtually any software is copyrighted, even if it is only intrinsic.

The question is not whether it is copyrighted, but whether the license permits distribution.

... and soon portable freeware will be allowed to be promoted.

The freeware you mention is copyrighted, but the license permits free distribution and use. See the difference?

I'm pretty sure you are right, though, about the license to Windows Live Mail not permitting it to be redistributed by PortableApps (although IANAL and I haven't looked at it).

Maybe I'm just mentioning a distinction without a difference.

Not Here

As mentioned various times in this thread, repackaging this software is illegal. Please do not ask for links to illegal software in this forum. Thunderbird with the Hotmail webmail extension should do the trick.

Thanks.
