Comments on: Turn almost any app into a portable app

When you gotta go, advanced users should strongly consider using AppCompactor to stay on the go.

I have released some apps "still in beta" and used the AppCompactor on them and i myself was surprised to see the level of compression. the average compression rate is 40~50%. i would recommend compressing a backup copy of the app just in case it fails and renders the app unless. That will only occur if the app was previously compresses by this method. I must say it does increase the speed of apps launching from a flash drive.; Like this Reply to this comment
