TeamViewer Portable Problem

Hi!

First: I'm not a developer...

There is a bug in the TeamViewer Portable. The settings don't get saved, but it is possible:

In the TeamViewer.ini file there is the option "nosave" that is set to 1 by default in the portable version. When this option is set to 0 TeamViewer saves the options in the registry in HKCU\Software\TeamViewer. So these options could be saved with the PortableApps.com Launcher...

Greetings

NOT bug

Your name the best :lol:
Don't be afraid using your real name or real account :lol:

This is NOT bug, ok. . .
By default nosave=0 will save settings on registry.
Now use importsettings=1

Example :
Set importsettings=1
Then create tv.ini (same directory) with contain :

Machine:General_DirectLAN=1
Machine:LanOnly=1

Save with Encoding UCS-2 Little Endian (use notepad++).
This is settings Incoming LAN connections to accept exclusively.

Regards

Really?

But when i "install" the TeamViewerPortable_7.0.13989.paf.exe found on portableapps.com the setting nosave is set to 1. So TeamViewer doesn't save any settings. is this really intended? Because in this case i don't need the portableApps.com Launcher, i can just install the Teamviewer Portable from their website and got the same.

TeamViewer by default is Portable

Many apps by default is Portable.
PortableApps.com Launcher only move file setting into folder Data directory.
It's simple to reset configuration by default, only delete Data directory.

Ok, maybe teamviewer.com not permit to save setting registry onto file .reg
It's just my mind.

Because, Launcher TeamViewerPortable.exe not build in PortableApps.com.
If you download from this site, you redirect on url
www.teamviewer.com/download/version_7x/TeamViewerPortable_7.0.13989.paf.exe
Name of signer file TeamViewerPortable_7.0.13989.paf.exe and TeamViewerPortable.exe is TeamViewer instead Rare Ideas, LLC

note:
Rare Ideas, LLC is Name of signer to official release PortableApps.com

possible solution for your problem

As you have mentioned, it's necessary to make some modifications after changing the value from 1 to 0 for the key "nosave" in the file TeamViewer.ini. Firstly must be created a folder named "Launcher" inside of the folder AppInfo. Afterwards must be created a file named "TeamViewerPortable.ini" inside of the folder Launcher. In the file TeamViewerPortable.ini must be pasted the following code:

[Activate]
Registry=true

[RegistryKeys]
teamviewer_settings=HKCU\Software\TeamViewer

With these alterations should now be recompiled a new installer TeamViewerPortable_x.x.xxxxx.paf.exe.

This is only a suggested solution, as I have not tested the whole thing practically.
