Josh - I added in portablization of the clearing directory for the portable drive as well as updated the language switching to work properly. So, please base your next version on this build. Note that it will not work as the Windows build ignores the LANG environment variable and just goes based on what the base OS is set to language-wise. Could you drop the BleachBit folks a note about enabling the environment variable in Windows builds? Thanks for your work on this.

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

Sure, I'll send them a note and see if they can get LANG working for the next build. Thanks for making those changes, I'll be sure to keep them in my next release.
