PortableApp versions are OK, but useless if a program is already portable, such as ccleaner.
Well ... I for one would prefer a PortableApps.com version of CCleaner over Piriform's Portable version.
Why? Oh, there's nothing wrong with Piriform's version. But, since I do use the PortableApps.com platform on my Flash Drives, a PortableApps.com version of CCleaner would be much easier / much faster to install. Just Bada Bing Bada Bang ... BAMM! DONE!
For that reason I always prefer the PortableApps.com version of whatever portable apps I use over whatever other versions might be available.

How about replacing the CCleaner portable with a PAF version?
... that and UPX compression will remove the signed digital signature of CCleaner.exe, and Piriform doesn't allow repacking/redistribution.
I think it's possible to skip the compression for the CCleaner.exe. Other companies also don't allow repacking, but they give PA.c a permission to do so.
Also there used to be a PA version, it may have been pulled if they (PA) were distributing without Piriform's concent.
I've linked it in the first post, but I got removed.
A dead cause I'd think that will go absolutely nowhere, since it's already been explained that Piriform have their own official portable edition available.

The Piriform version works fne, tried it when this topic started and just now again.
Easily done, just extract the zip file on the USB stick & run the exe, 32 or 64 bit.
Whats wrong with that?
Just saying, not arguing, whats wrong with the Piriform version?

Software integrated into the PortableApps.com Platform auto-updates. Does Piriform portable software too?
Piriform products only auto-update if you have the Pro version, pretty sure that still applies to the portable editions if you are still within the yearly subscription.
Personally, I'm a big fan of manual updates, I like to see how others 'test in the real world' a new release before opting in.
