Note that ChromeStandaloneSetup.exe is the name of the file downloaded from either of the above links, but they are different binaries.
#Portable google chrome without installation install
GoogleChromePortable_XX.X.XXXX.XX_ sees that ChromeStandaloneSetup.exe is already there in the same folder, switches to offline install mode. If it's not possible to create an automated all-in-one install package, then please consider restoring the functionality that used to work. The stable links for Chrome that I've found require an EULA ack-click, not sure if this can be hacked to automate a self-contained package install. I realize from a Portability point of view Firefox may be superior, but in this case I don't have a choice, the users I'm supporting are wedded to Chrome extensions, off-line app in development etc.Įven when they do have a reliable connection, most of my users are paying per-MB and the download can take so long they run it overnight. Use case is a multi-remote-user environment (third-world NGO) widely implementing PA.com's Chrome, non-technical end users only occasionally connected, often with very sketchy net access, want to distribute updates so they can upgrade-in-place keeping their profiles intact. If not, then please let me know what I'm doing wrong. If so, please consider this a request to have it restored, or (even better) to make the PA.com installer self-contained if possible (I'm thinking licensing issue? Is there an existing issue report at we could +1?)
Is this functionality is no longer possible? It used to be the case that if you had the "alternative" standalone installer EXE - don't remember if it was the system-wide or the per-user version - in the same folder as the PA.com installer, the latter would automagically detect the former and go ahead and install even if there were no connection to the Internet available. The PortableApps Chrome installer by default requires a robust Internet connection to download the actual binaries from.
