BigCheese Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 I just copied normal winrar to my flash drive and it worked fine. So what's the point of this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spindel Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 I just copied normal winrar to my flash drive and it worked fine. So what's the point of this? WinRAR Unplugged works as portable on all drives, e.g. normal USB-Sticks (Non U3), external hdds, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

verizon Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 WinRAR Unplugged works as portable on all drives, e.g. normal USB-Sticks (Non U3), external hdds, etc. But so does normal standalone WinRAR - I dont see the difference at all with Unplugged?

spindel Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 But so does normal standalone WinRAR - I dont see the difference at all with Unplugged? The normal WinRAR put all settings into the Windows Registry. Unplugged put the settings in in a file called 'winrar.rcf'! So, Unplugged don't create any registry entries inside windows, its complete portable! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
generalnewbie Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 maybe.. the reason its working on your PC is because you have winrar installed? If it wasnt installed and was only copied to a USB thumb drive it might not work.. but i dont know 100% Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks mate I understand now - but then, I thought they would just replace the original WinRAR with the Unplugged branch, its win-win! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
