I read a message from 2009 or 2010 where it mentioned the availability of R for Windows in a zip file, no installation required. It would be very useful for me. Is this still available somewhere? Thanks [[alternative HTML version deleted]]
I have never used it, but Google sez look here [1]. You should learn to speak Google also. [1] https://sourceforge.net/projects/rportable/ -- Sent from my phone. Please excuse my brevity.

Im already aware of that. Needs the portable apps framework to work.

I have not done this is years, but I think that I just installed R on a USB stick and it was fine. But that was probably 10 years ago so things may have changed completely since then.

Yes, that works, but I can't use USB sticks. It has to be a downloadable zip file On Thu, Jan 25, 2018, 09:37 John Kane <jrkrideau at yahoo.ca> wrote:> I have not done this is years, but I think that I just installed R on a > USB stick and it was fine.

I believe that the ordinary Windows installer for R can produce a portable result by choosing the appropriate configuration options from the offered screens when you run the installer Be sure to enter the desired path in the Select Destination Location screen, choose Yes on the Startup options screen and ensure that all boxes are unchecked on the Select additional tasks screen.

What is wrong with you guys? I asked for a zip, like R Studio has for example. Totally clear. I cant execute exes. But I can unzip files. Thanks Gabor, I had that in mind, but can't execute the exe due to security restrictions. Geez, really, treating people who ask questions this way just makes you don't want to ask a single one.
