Subject: Portable CygWin version for Windows?
Date: Sun, 14 Nov 2021 08:37:50 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1ab88470-74c9-49d7-3c42-281927dee218@yahoo.ca> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1ab88470-74c9-49d7-3c42-281927dee218.ref@yahoo.ca>

On webpage

https://cygwin.com/

I found only a CgyWin Installer to download.

I prefer to put CygWin on an USB flash drive and run it on various computers without leaving installation traces.

Is there really no portable version to download?

What if I install it once one computer and copy all the files to my USB flash drive?
Are there any disadvantages?

Peter
