Portable version

|
The main difference between the portable version and regular version1 of WP Descriptive Name Explorer (WPDName) is that the portable version is designed to run from a portable usb drive (flash drive, memory stick, etc.,). The portable version:
| • | Contains only the zipped executable (.exe file) and a help file (no automatic setup); and |
| • | Saves user preferences as an .ini file to the folder that contains the exe file and assumes the user has read and write privileges for that folder. |
To install the portable version of WPDName, simply unzip WPDName <version>.zip to a folder of your choice on your portable drive.
| 1 | The regular version of WPDName follows Microsoft conventions for storing user preferences by saving its .ini file in the user's Documents and Settings folder in WinXP and in the user's account folder within the main Users folder in Vista. Under Vista, you can find the .ini file under C:\Users\<your user account name>\AppData\Roaming\Knowis\WPDName\. |
