Google app created from Portable Chrome wont run after first activation

Problem:
Run GooglePortableChrome, open webpage and use tools to create an application shortcut on desktop.
Double click the shortcut - runs okay.
Double click again - nothing!

In the App\Chrome-bin directory is debug.log. Content is
[1018/115504:ERROR:client_util.cc(228)] Failed to load Chrome DLL from 0012FEA4
[1018/115504:ERROR:client_util.cc(269)] Could not find exported function RelaunchChromeBrowserWithNewCommandLineIfNeeded

Chrome.exe

The shortcut is pointing to the base app, not the launcher. Of course it won't work.

Unsupported

Chrome apps and any apps from their app store are completely unsupported portably.

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

Side effects?

Are you aware of anything that can compromise portability?
Related: last time I checked, the LastPass for Chrome Portable extension does include NPAPI plugin that uses %LOCALAPPDATA%\LastPass. You could contact them, or we could add something in the user config like BackupLocalDirectoryN.
