Today software has become very accesible with the popularity of subscriptions. And with the Adobe elearning community the softare rewards are great. But a training developer needs a big software toolbox, that contains a large set of tools that are only used spordically. Unfortunately this can come with a hefty price tag, but it doesn’t have to. Did you ever consider using open source software? The open source alternatives have the basic needs of the commercial packages so do not expect the extended functionality. Free tools do add the opportunity to build your own portable toolbox as most open source programs directly run from a USB stick using portable apps. Placing portable applications on a USB memory stick makes it possible to do your work on any PC running windows. And when you need to swap for a new PC there is no hassle of reinstalling all the applications.
But some application are not featured on PortableApps.com, so you need to make the app portable yourself. This could be as easy as copying the installed application to a USB memory stick. But then the application may not be using the windows registry or shared libraries.
To make sure that your application gets packed safely for portable use you should use Cameyo. Cameyo can package your application for portable use and even run it in the cloud if linked with a dropbox account. Cameyo is making your windows application available on every browser and on any platform through a cloud service called worspace-as-a-service.
How does Cameyo work?
- Run the Cameyo App, and chose “Capture an installation”.
- Wait until a system snapshot has been taken.
- Install the application you want make portable.
- Click Install done.
