Hello,

I cannot seem to get the -Portable switch to work. In the past when i did it the files and folders that usually went to the application data folder was saved in the mIRC folder instead but now I cannot get it working at all.

I'm using the latest version, Installing it on my portable device and not opening after installation. I then make a short cut of the .exe then i open the shortcuts properties then I proceed to General then add -portable to mirc.exe.

Maybe thats not you're supposed to do? Its worked in past releases. I do not have Hide extension types deselected.

Thanks for any help.

I nevers used this but have you look at the http://www.mirc.co.uk/versions.txt ?
In particular this change in mIRC 6.3 :
Quote:
38.Changed -portable command line switch behaviour. Now makes mIRC
both 1) avoid use of the registry and 2) use the executable folder
as the mirc.ini folder.
