Arduino IDE 2.2.1 portable?

I tried to install Arduino IDE 2.2.1portable
I used the compressed version of the zip file for Windows
I created a folder called Portable in the main folder
But by running the program, no document was placed in this folder
The installed libraries were placed in the document folder
Can't version 2.2.1 be installed portable?
Or have I done the wrong steps?
I will be grateful for your answer

Your topic has been moved to the IDE 2.x category of the forum

I'm new, I don't know what you say, what should I do?

You don't need to do anything

What you did was to post in the Uncategorised category of the forum where it may, or may not have been responded too. I moved it to the IDE 2.x category where it is more likely to be noticed and replied too

Thank you

Indeed. IDE 2.x currently does not support a portable installation. There are workarounds by copying files around.

I run IDE 2.x for the official Arduino boards and have portable installs for other boards.

Thank you for your guidance
Can you tell me the latest version that supports portable and how to download it?

Hi @DavidNr. The latest version of Arduino IDE with a "portable" mode is Arduino IDE 1.8.19.

The 1.8.19 download links are listed here:

You can learn about the Arduino IDE 1.x portable mode from this tutorial:

Unfortunately , for some reason this isnt high on the devs priority list , there is an open issue for portable mode on 2.x from 2020 . They also closed commenting on that issue.

All issues with the same request are closed immediately.
