Portable Abiword on a CD

Hi, I would like to know if this application will work from a CD.

Thanks

If you mean if it'll run off a CD directly, that's highly unlikely. Most of the applications available here require write access on the drive they're running from.

Re:

Thanks. Then, all these portable applications only work from a read and write media??

Most do

Most apps require the ability to write to the media they run from.

That said, I think Portable AbiWord works from a read-only drive.

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