Netdiver: Help - Can't make this run portable

The app writes entries to the registry - cannot locate any config options to write to the app folder. Also, could not find info on the website.

If there is a way, please post.

Thanks,

Nick

If you run Freeraser.exe from removable media it writes (and reads) all settings to INI file in same folder.
Works just fine for me....
Check if your portable device recognized as "removable" by Windaz. If it is "fixed" app will use registry for settings

Update: there is native Portable version. May be downloaded here: http://www.codyssey.com/downloads/sw/fr ... _Setup.exe
or ZIP archive: http://www.codyssey.com/downloads/sw/fr ... eraser.zip
Links in post fixed as well...
