Consequently, they should run OOTB in Ubuntu "derivatives" like Lupu and precise. They are not developed for Puppy, but are generic builds tested in Ubuntu and two other major distributions. its use will not conflict with any libs or applications you installed or SFSes you loaded. By self-contained I mean that all their necessary libs and dependencies are included. Originally discovered by Stu90, and explored by Lobster and myself, portable linux apps are like portable XP apps, except for Linux: portable because they aren't installed but rather run as a Self-contained, external Program Folder. Of course, by manual, I don't mean 100% manual.I don't think portable linux apps otherwise show up in the Additional Software subforum. Any tutorial links on how to manually make an application portable and the tools required would be great. If there aren't any packager, then I also don't mind manually copying and packaging the portable app. Maybe there is also a way to run a Linux image capture application on Windows. Maybe my Linux OS can do an image capture of my Windows 7 disk partition before and after installation, but I prefer to use a Windows packager software to keep things simple. Is there any download link to "Portable App Creator" application?
I will be doing this on my Windows 7 that is dual booted with Linux. It is an open-source applicatioĪs for the second application, it can only run on my Vista, it is powered by VMWare and its exe file is too compiled. I just discovered that this app was made portable with an application called "Portable App Creator". Another interesting feature on this app is that is it seperated into two subfolder: App and Data. I consider this app to be truly portable since I never had any issue with it. Its exe file is small and it actually has a portable registry file(.reg). I just need to copy and paste the folder (no rar or zip required) on a USB to another computer. The first application can run on my Windows Vista, 7 desktop and 8 computers. They are both portable in the sense that they don't require installation. I have two versions of "portable" application, which I have downloaded a long time ago.
ThinApp VMWare compiles the whole application into one exe file, which doesn't always run on other computer.Ĭameyo also compiles it too much and acts as a "middleware" whenever you want to open. I found that apps like Cameyo and ThinApp VMWare, but they are not really portable. I did some research on how I can make an application portable and they all require an image capture of the installation before and after. So, I figured I would find more software experienced response here. I know this is a Linux forum, but on Software subreddit, I've seen response such as "(Linux) is for non-tech people (.) and people who don't need high quality and/or industry-standard software".
