how to make every app portable?

<< < (4/4)

Ath:
Both Novell ZEN Application Virtualization and VMWare's ThinApp Wikipedia offer application 'portabilization', by packaging an entire application and it's required environment into a single exe. At a tradeshow (2009) I got an USB key holding a ZEN packaged OpenOffice installation (it sure was not the Portable OpenOffice!) to try, and it works just fine. Nothing to install, nothing to clear if you need to get rid of it, just run it.

That's a whole lot lighter then running a portable VBox instance.

Nope,
Nothing to install, nothing to clear if you need to get rid of it, just run it.

Re-phrase: Nothing to install, and nothing to clear if you need to get rid of it, you can just run it whenever you need it.
