Allegedly, it is portable, but being a DotNET app and the process is a bit convoluted, so I found "Resources & Links" a better place to post about it. Let it be noted that the standard version is freeware, but there's also a paying Pro version -- originally marketed by Quest Software, before it was acquired by Dell.
I couldn't find minimum requirements, besides mentions to DotNET and Powershell.
1. Before you do anything, you'll have to open a Powershell command window and issue the following command:
Code: Select all
Set-ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted
2. Then you'll have to download the PowerGUI latest version (currently v3.2.0.2237) from http://powergui.org/downloads.jspa. It's a MSI file, double click to install; it takes a while and it maxed my CPU a couple of times.
3. Next, go to http://www.powergui.org/entry.jspa?exte ... goryID=387 and download the 'Add-on.InstallPortable.zip'.
4. There are instructions there, but it is enough to extract the addon anywhere, open the PowerGUI Script Editor, choose menu "File | PowerShell Libraries" and browse for the unpacked addon location to install it and activate it. Following this, a button will appear in the PowerGUI SE toolbar that will allow (fast) copying of the installation to USB or any other folder.
5. You can then uninstall PowerGUI. Whew!
PowerGUI portable will depend on DotNET and Powershell being installed, but supposedly it will work everywhere... it sure seems a lot to do just to replace the ever-present Windows command console and humble Notepad.
