Hi, can someone explain how this works?
i've been looking at various "portable" software titles and i have been checking the registry to see if anything gets written.
Then I stumbled across MUICache, and I see in there everything.
for example:
D:\System Core Files\USB Key Files\USB Apps\PStart\PStart.exe
D:\System Core Files\USB Key Files\USB Apps\PortableOpenOffice\PortableOpenOfficeWriter.exe
and so on, now, does this stuff disappear after a reboot, or is it there forever, because that worries me in that anyone (who knows what they are doing) can see exactly what's been installed/run? on this PC, despite my wanting to make it portable and thus untraceable.
Or have I got it completely ass backwards, and have no need to worry.

That's something the operating system does by itself; it's not the portable application's fault. A chain is only as strong as its weakest link, and the weakest link in this case is Windows. If Windows wants to store the list of recently run programs, there's nothing you can do to stop it.
