Running a Virtural Machine Player Anywhere?
I figured virtual machine can run on any computer since its just a file, but I wondered if I can run the player without installing it making it portable is that passable? I thought of using portable apps but I don't know where to start. I use Virtual Box but what ever player I can use I want to make it portable to run it.
Please don't mention Live CD unless it in some way it can help me with this task. |

Running a Virtural Machine Player Anywhere?
I was asking that is it possable because I don't know if it installs in just the 'program files' when installed or does it also install in other parts of the computer like /system32 and such? I am trying to do this because the host computer I'll be using will be will prevent installation of anything but I am allowed to run things from flash drive.

I'm pretty sure that it doesn't use system32 or anything, as it'd defeat the point a bit...
Don't hold me to that though, surely you don't really hav anything to lose by just trying it out though?
