Thanks for the tip Keith.
There appears to be a need for a truly portable version of CCleaner, Especially when it comes to using CCleaner on corporate computers that are typically locked down by the IT support. By this I mean the following (most of which I borrowed from wikipedia)
1. CCleaner would not require any kind of installation on a computer's permanent storage device to be executed, and can be stored on a removable storage device such as USB flash drive, enabling it to be used on multiple computers.
2. Settings are stored with, and can be carried around with, the software (i.e., they are written to the USB drive). If the registry is used to store settings, the application's configuration isn't portable, and must be set up on every PC it is used on
3. Leaves a zero (or near-zero) "footprint" on any PC it's run on after being used. i.e., All temporary files/registry settings should be removed once the program has exited, and files created by the user can be saved directly to the same removable media as the application is stored on.
4. Should not require admin privileges to run.
Would be truly great if we can start working on this.
Is something like this available? With CCleaner? Any other software that does the same thing that CCleaner, but comes closer to true portability.
I would gladly participate and contribute in any way that I can to its development and use.
