Portable not supported #777

It will not search for exe from the program directory.

All the required binaries need to be added to Windows' PATH.

It does not support custom paths and configuration files

trixoniisama commented 10 months ago

I'm unsure I understand what you mean. Windows' PATH supports any path. What config file are we even talking about?

he852100 commented 10 months ago

Depending on system variables, you need to upgrade the default version of the dependent program to the version supported by anav1. Why should I do this, it will break the dependencies of other programs, need a configuration file or special variables to configure separately

Use Docker or Sandboxie.

Or just launch the process with a custom path, you can do that by editing the shortcut, or with a batch file, or however you like to launch the main process.

Then you can keep your old apps and use the new side-by-side with all the same names.

Granted a cleaner solution would always be nice, like a command-line exe folder option, but at least it's possible now.
