What is a portable app?

Portable App Definition

A portable app is a computer software that does not require installation in Windows like standard apps, allowing you to carry it around on a portable device or cloud drive and use it on any Windows machine. When you plug in your USB flash drive, portable hard drive, or other portable device, or sync your cloud drive, you have access to your software and personal data just like on your own PC. When you unplug the gadget, no personal information is left behind.

No special hardware is required - any USB flash drive, portable hard disk, or other similar device would suffice.

There is no need for any additional software - Simply download the portable installer, launch it, and go.

It's not a joke - it's that simple.
