NoteTab Light V4.95 must be rejected from database

#1 Post by Ennovy »

NotaTab Light is a very good editor, but I'am sorry to say that it is NOT portable. (http://www.portablefreeware.com/?q=notetab+light)

I tested it with Sandboxie and noticed that all settings are stored in the user profile folder. In the options I could not find anything to change that behaviour. I moved the settings to the application folder but the next time I started it, the settings were again restored in the user profile folder.
I could not find any traces in the registry.

So imho it must be removed from TPFC database, although it's a very good app. :cry:

I now see that I used version 5.4 and the database mentions version 4.95. So at some point this application has changed the way to store the settings.
I suppose it should be mentioned in the database that the current version is no longer portable :!:

You need to use the "/usb" switch. It's stated in the documentation.

Code: Select all

notetab.exe /usb
