19:15:39 <Aerok> I still hadn't the chance to test it. I need to setup a VM to install it first.

20:17:23 <RG_> Hello All
20:17:56 <RG_> I'm working on a project and I havent used portable apps before but I have heard alot of great things from friends and I have a question and I'm wondering if anyone has any expereince
20:18:54 <RG_> I'd like to build a webpage and load it and Chrome Portable onto a USB stick and give it to some people. Some people have locked down systems (at work for example).
20:19:15 <RG_> my Question is, does any one have any experience with this, ie using Chrome Portable on locked down workstations?
20:19:31 <RG_> is it possible or will the locked down part block it? Any suggestions?
20:20:53 <Gizmokid2005> RG_: it depends on how they're locked down
20:21:28 <RG_> Ok, what kind of lock down would or wouldn't work? or what I should ask to figure it out in advance?
20:22:26 <Gizmokid2005> well if they lock down USB ports in general, or block exes from "untrusted" locations
20:22:30 <Gizmokid2005> or if they use process blocking
20:22:34 <Gizmokid2005> those would all render it useless.
20:23:14 <RG_> Gottcha. USB shouldnt be locked as they use thumb drives right now, they just dont have permission to install software on the systems
20:23:32 <Gizmokid2005> if that's the only blocking thing atm, they should be ok to run it
20:23:46 <Gizmokid2005> but it really depends. and may/may not be against their company's policy.
20:24:18 <RG_> Is there any type of test I can ask them to perform?
20:24:21 <Gizmokid2005> so you want to be sure, because doing that may be reason for disciplinary action.
20:24:30 <Gizmokid2005> nothing that will be definitive.
20:24:46 <RG_> haha well i'm not worried about disiplinary action
20:24:59 <RG_> I know what you're saying though :)
20:25:29 <Gizmokid2005> well, it's one of those "CYA" things.
20:26:15 <RG_> This would be used by some government workers, so I doubt they would get axed over it
20:27:06 <RG_> Atleast in Canada, its hard to get rid of government workers lol
20:29:03 <Gizmokid2005> I was going to say, not in the US! haha
20:30:04 <RG_> Are you familiar with Chrome portable?
20:30:44 <RG_> I'm just wondering, if i install chrome portable to a USB drive, is it just a matter of replicating that USB drive?
20:30:51 <Gizmokid2005> should be.,
20:31:01 <RG_> for example, id like to set the home page in the chrome profile and stuff to make it easy
20:31:21 <Gizmokid2005> yeah, everything for the app will be contained in the 'GoogleChromePortable' folder
20:31:48 <RG_> so then its just a matter of them running a shortcut to it and they're set
20:31:50 <RG_> that would be awesome
20:32:10 <Gizmokid2005> sounds right to me.
20:35:53 <RG_> Here's a question for you. If i set my homepage in chrome to be a file on that thumb drive with the portable app, and i put it into another computer and the drive letter changes, what happens?
20:36:04 <RG_> is there anyway to feed in a variable for that or anything?
20:47:55 <Gizmokid2005> Ohhh...that's a good question
20:48:07 <Gizmokid2005> I don't think it'll iterate through that pref and change the drive letter
20:48:11 <Gizmokid2005> it's something worth trying at least
20:50:50 <RG_> i was hoping i could just put the .html file in the same folder at the executable to get around that
20:50:54 <RG_> but it forces you to have the full path i think
20:52:14 <Gizmokid2005> yeah, I don't think you can use dynamic paths in the url bar in a browser.
20:57:02 <RG_> hmmm here's something though, in that preferences file it has "path" variables for various DLL's, and they reference the drive letter of where chrome portable is installed, which could change ...
20:57:34 <RG_> so i wonder if it will break or get replaced ...
21:24:01 <Gizmokid2005> those get replaced
21:24:04 <Gizmokid2005> by the launcher.
21:24:10 <Gizmokid2005> they'd have to or they'd break.
