The Salamander is still not portable, but you can do it easily with an Autoit script:

#NoTrayIcon
RunWait("regedit.exe /E " & @ScriptDir & "\temp.reg HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Altap")
RunWait("regedit.exe /S " & @ScriptDir & "\config_.reg")
RunWait(@ScriptDir & "/salamand.exe", "", @SW_MAXIMIZE)
RegDelete("HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Altap")
If FileExists(@ScriptDir & "\temp.reg") Then
RunWait("regedit.exe /S " & @ScriptDir & "\temp.reg")
FileDelete(@ScriptDir & "\temp.reg")
EndIf

Compile (Autoit) that script (Salrun.au3) and run it in the root directory of Salamander on USB-stick. It works well and fast also if on the host PC is another Salamander installed. (Script and EXE is attached)

Will be possible to describe whole install procedure with more details pls?

(something like: Make AS directory on USB stick. Copy Salrun + as254.exe there..)

I do not understand your question. do the following:

1. download salrun.zip
2. copy the "salrun.exe" into an installed Salamander-directory
3. export under Salamander the configuration (config_.reg)
4. copy the complete directory to you USB-stick
5. run "Salrun.exe instead of salamand.exe

that is all ...
