Local Version Warning

The local version installer uses what is considered a malicious bundleware add-on that will be detected as such by several antivirus engines. The portable version downloads the local version installer but extracts the files from it without running the installer, protecting you from bundleware. The download may trigger a detection in your antivirus, however. The files extracted by the portable release are clean and a scan of them is linked to the from portable version's homepage.

PortableApps.com Installer / PortableApps.com Format

CDex Portable is packaged in a PortableApps.com Installer so it will automatically detect an existing PortableApps.com installation when your drive is plugged in. It supports upgrades by installing right over an existing copy, preserving all settings. And it's in PortableApps.com Format, so it automatically works with the PortableApps.com Platform including the Menu and Backup Utility.

The base app's installer has bundleware in it that is blocked by many antivirus packages. The PA.c Installer bypasses these but still needs to be able to download the installer from the publisher to function.
