[Mod note: the present is the official forum topic for TreeDBNotes; https://www.portablefreeware.com/?id=1293]

Few days ago (!) Nuno Leite wrote this name in a long list of apps he uses

http://www.portablefreeware.com/forums/ ... reedbnotes

the app is really portable, if uniextracted.

TreeDBNotes is a free powerful and easy-to-use personal database program, PIM and Word Processor with Tree Structure, advanced encryption and password protection. Features: Search, Replace, Case options, Insert file/ link/ image/ time/ date/ symbols/ table / html table. Import from txt, wri, rtf, Excell, Word, html and more. Export to txt, html, wri, doc and more.

TreeDBNotes stores and represents your information in a comfortable and clear tree-structured form. Each node in such 'tree' represents associated note, so you can store a lot of mostly independent notes in one notebook. With any note you can perform main Wordpad-like text-formatting functions (font and paragraph styles).

Indeed use the universal extrator method. Settings are saved in the application folder in a file called options.ini. I found no entries in the registry although i didn't use regshot or something like that :oops: . Also no entries in the user directory.
Application looks nice but the freeware version is no longer under development.

TreeDBNotes 3.3

TreeDBNotes Free is now at version 3.3. It is no longer compatible with 1.0's version of .tdb files, and I question its portability. Anyhow, the old method of installation is no longer applicable to the new version.

Edit: The application does allow you to import old database files from previous versions

It's a nice application, but it's no longer portable. There are folders created in the user directory (application data and my documents)
I could not find a workaround.

On the website you can also find a "free" registered version with more features, but you have to donate $ 19,95 :shock:
Free versus "free, but registered" : http://www.mytreedb.com/free_vs_pro.html

There is an option:" Tools -> Copy TreeDBNotes on a Flash drive".

Works fine, thanks :wink:

The program had a program update earlier this year:

v3.38

Given the complex setup process, I decided to just post to forums rather than test the update for portability.

Old topic update: TreeDBNotes last release was v4.50, dated 2015-09-15 (according to Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TreeDBNotes).

TreeDBNotes appears to have been abandoned and the webpage has fallen in dereliction (and SPAM) -- yet it still has the Pro version available for download.

The Internet Archive has plenty snapshots of the site but it seems the last version archived is the one posted to the database (v4.34.1). E.g., see:

web.archive.org/web/20160316211559/http://www.mytreedb.com /download/setup_treedbnotes_4_34_1.exe
