I updated System Informer Portable to 3.2.25011 and now every time I close it or try to modify options, the error occurs and "Unable to save application settings" windows pops up. How to fix it and where can I download older version of System Informer Portable?

I downgraded System Informer to version 3.0.7578, now no errors when closing window or modifying options. I found older versions of PortableApps installers here: https://sourceforge.net/projects/portableapps/files/
Please let me know if you know how to fix this error on new version.
Try a fresh installation, somewhere else. Another computer/OS, etc.
Also, you may provide more details about the concerned PC: OS, Antivirus/Firewalls, Network, etc.

I already tried fresh installation (on the same PC and on the virtual machine), when I installed it on the PC's hard drive, it was working normally, but when I tried to install it to the USB drive (I tried two different USB drives), the error occurs.
Similar topic. Try another brand.

I tried two different drives from different brands, also a lot of other portable apps work perfectly on one of them, not likely it's drive issue. More likely System Informer have problem saving data to drive that is "mounted" as USB drive.
It's a bug in the base app. It apparently has issues with specific paths. At the moment, it may be tied to external drives. This happens whether or not it's packaged in PA.c Format or the publisher's own portable copy.
Sometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!
Thanks for your response. Now I'm using older version, I will wait for a new update.
