When I used to run Filezilla from my C: drive, it used to store personal informtaion in C:/users/Appdata folder.
Does PortableFilezilla do that too? Or does it only store my login usernames and passwords in its OWN PortableFilezilla folder?
Thanks

Oliver, I have accounts saved
Oliver, I have accounts saved in portablefilezilla, and it stores it in a file with my account address, login username and passwords.
So this information is only ever stored in the portablefilezila folder? It doesnt write a copy anywhere else?

It may leave some traces under a few circumstances
I migrated one computer from Filezilla (non portable) to Filezilla portable back when we were at version 2.x. At the same time, I started using it on another computer where the non portable version was NOT installed.
On the computer where a non-portable version was previously installed, Filezilla portable continued to use the Registry, whereas on the other one, I don't think there were any traces left behind. The behaviour remained the same even when I uninstalled the non-portable Filezilla; I solved the problem when I cleared the Registry of any entries left by Filezilla.
Not sure if the situation is different with version 3.
P.S. With Filezilla, I didn't mind the traces left on my computer; my main reason for using the portable version is to make sure all the contacts, ftp addresses... are configured properly anywhere.
