This topic has already been mentioned several times in other threads here in the forum. I use also for many years now regularly TeamViewer Portable and am of the opinion that this is a real lack. Therefore I have been searching for some time for a solution, which I have now found.

This solution has two minor limitations:

After closing of TeamViewer an advertising window will appear. Personally, I consider this to be rather insignificant. Also I want to inform myself further, how I possibly can prevent the emergence of this advertising window.
This version requires administrative privileges, because the app writes the registry key HKLM\software\TeamViewer during its running.

For my modified version I have made the following alterations:

Adapting of the file TeamViewer.ini in the folder DefaultData\settings
The file TeamViewer.ini has the following content:
```
[Settings]
nosave=0
importsettings=0
LogIncomingConnections=0
LogOutgoingConnections=0
[License]
code=00-00000-000000-000000
```
Especially with the entry "nosave=0" it is possible, that changes to the settings can be saved in TeamViewer.

Creation of the folder Launcher within the folder AppInfo

I have created the folder Launcher within the folder AppInfo. Then I have pasted the file TeamViewerPortable.ini in the folder Launcher. The file TeamViewerPortable.ini has the following content:

[Launch]
ProgramExecutable=teamviewer\TeamViewer.exe
[FilesMove]
settings\TeamViewer.ini=%PAL:AppDir%\teamviewer
[DirectoriesMove]
settings\TeamViewer=%APPDATA%\TeamViewer
[Activate]
Registry=true
[RegistryKeys]
TeamViewer_HKCU=HKCU\Software\TeamViewer
TeamViewer_HKLM=HKLM\Software\TeamViewer

Elimination of the file TeamViewer.ini from the folder teamviewer
Before the creation of the launcher and installer I have eliminated the file TeamViewer.ini from the folder teamviewer.

Finally I would like to offer my modified version of TeamViewer for download: [Download removed by mod JTH]
