Installing Visual Studio 2008 as a portable app

Hello everyone,

I am quite new to the portable apps platform. In fact I landed here while looking for a solution for installing a portable version of Visual Studio 2008. I am not even sure if this is possible, but it would be very helpful for me to have that.

Especially when I have to go to the customers with different machine setups and look at the problems they are encountering, I could use the portable VS to actually go through and debug the code on the clients machine itself.

If anyone of you has any idea how this can be done, I would be very thankful for any suggestions provided by you.

Regards,

Harpreet

Not Possible

It would take a lot of recoding at Microsoft's end to make Visual Studio portable.
However, if you're not too bummed out by the lack of UI design, I would suggest maybe Eclipse Portable (still in development, but nonetheless solid).

Insert original signature here with Greasemonkey Script.
