Chrome Portable docs inc. limitations

Can anyone point me to the user docs for Chrome Portable, esp. the list of differences/limitations compared to the standard version? Thanks.

There aren't many differences

There aren't many differences to document, honestly, as Chrome Portable IS the standard Chrome in a PortableApps.com wrapper.

The only real differences to concern anyone are under the Features section of the official Chrome Portable page.

As with all PortableApps it

As with all PortableApps it cannot be installed to any of the Program Files equivalent locations (Chrome is one of the reasons this restriction was put in place - it is hardcoded to run in local mode from Program Files).

I also seem to remember reading somewhere around here that Chrome (and thus Chrome Portable) uses whatever proxy settings are set for the local copy of IE. Generally this won't be an issue, but has the potential to be on some PCs.

Otherwise I don't know of any issues specific to Chrome Portable that wouldn't also be obvious in Chrome itself.
