Today, Opera developers
announced a new nice feature. The ability to install Opera as a portable
app was added to its installer. Portable apps have the benefit that
they do not store settings in the Registry so the same set of settings
can be used across different Windows PC or different Windows
installations on the same PC. Once downloaded, you can simply run the
portable app's EXE. The app does not need to be installed.
The revamped version of
the Opera Installer now supports a portable installation mode. When you
run the portable installer, it extracts a standalone version of Opera to
a location specified by the user. By default, it detects removable
drives connected to your PC and suggests to use one of them as the
destination location. See the following screenshot:
Interested users can try the new installer by downloading it from the following location:
As of this writing, this
new installer is an experimental feature, so it has arrived only on the
developer channel. Once it is polished, it will be rolled out for stable
and beta channel users.
