Important information:
As of the time of Apr 14, 2022, 12:06 AM GMT+10, the Github repository has been archived and I am officially discontinuing this portable app. It may still work as is, but there will never be an update. If it returns under a different user with suspicious "updates", do NOT download/install.
To whoever it is that owns the UGOTTROLLED github account:
Sick troll mate, you targeted something that was slated for deletion. The other repositories that you have (along with the account name itself) make it obvious your intentions, any pull requests would of been rejected. I have enough programmer knowledge to ascertain whether any coding was potentially suspicious, anything that I would need a debugger/decompiler to read the source for would also have been rejected.
Application: Minecraft
Category: Games
Licence: Closed Source [See license page of installer]
Description: [from website]
Minecraft is a game about breaking and placing blocks. At first, people built structures to protect against nocturnal monsters, but as the game grew players worked together to create wonderful, imaginative things.
It can also be about adventuring with friends or watching the sun rise over a blocky ocean. It’s pretty. Brave players battle terrible things in The Nether, which is more scary than pretty. You can also visit a land of mushrooms if it sounds more like your cup of tea.
Please note that this is not officially endorsed by Mojang and that it is simply a custom bootstrapper built using the PortableApps.com Launcher to make the Minecraft Launcher and Minecraft work within the PortableApps.com Platform. It is not Minecraft itself.

Notes:
This release was compiled with a modified PAL setup that detects jPortable64 before trying to detect jPortable. Below is a plugininstaller for PortableApps.com Launcher v2.2.1 for others to try. Note that this is not fully supported, otherwise the official package would already have this code. It installs a modified Java segment file and the ini used to generate the plugininstaller.
