A portable application can be run from a removable drive (USB flash drive, iPod, portable hard drive, etc) on any Windows computer without installation.
You will carry the program with settings on removable drive and don't modify settings on host computer.
On Vista and above turn off User Account Control (UAC) or run launcher as admin.

File manager for Windows without installation.
Download Portable TotalCommander 11.03 32-64 bit Online (0.8 MB)

Extract and run TotalCommanderPortable.
Your wincmd.key will be used if found in Data\TotalCommander.
Language set by launcher according UserDefaultLang (if you don't want: write UserDefaultLang=false in TotalCommanderPortable.ini): English, SimpChinese, Czech, Danish, German, Dutch, Spanish, French, Hungarian, Italian, Korean, Norwegian, Polish, Romanian, Russian, Slovak, Slovenian, Swedish, Ukrainian.
Settings of installed TotalCommander should be preserved.

If you need to run several instances change AllowMultipleInstances from false to true in TotalCommanderPortable.ini.
If you have Notepad++Portable or UltraEditPortable in the same foder as TotalCommanderPortable you can choose one of them as default editor (F4) by changing one (not two) false to true in TotalCommanderPortable.ini.

How do I add notepad++portable as the default editor to Total Commander Portable?

It doesn't work adding it to TotalCommanderPortable.ini.

Thanks

Bernat said...

If you write in
TotalCommanderPortable\TotalCommanderPortable.ini
NotepadppPortableEditor=true
UltraEditPortableEditor=false

You should have after launching in
TotalCommanderPortable\Data\TotalCommander\TotalCommander.ini
[Configuration]
Editor=%COMMANDER_PATH%\..\..\..\Notepad++Portable\Notepad++Portable.exe

Of course don't change name of folders.

Atolica said...

I already did that, but where do I install/copy the Notepad++ files from the Notepadpp_Portable_6.x_Multilingual_Online.exe? What path should I specify? I need to copy notepad++ somewhere.

Bernat said...

Just install both in default folder:
X:\PortableApps\TotalCommanderPortable\
X:\PortableApps\Notepad++Portable\

When i run setup extractor and enter 801x32_64 it says that tcm801x32_64.exe is not found, even so i have downloaded the file in the same folder.

Bernat said...

You have to click on "64-bit+32-bit combined" and you should download tcm801x32_64.exe.

Anonymous said...

Thanks, i got it.

Do i need to keep the file tcm801x32_64.exe after i download Total Commander?

Bernat said...

You can delete when files are extracted.

Your wincmd.key will be used if found in Data\TotalCommander.
For me it is not used and when i close totalcmd it is deleted.
I change the TotalCommanderPortable.ini value PersonalKey=true and i have the same issue

Bernat said...

Tested working.
When TC is closed copy you key:
TotalCommanderPortable\Data\TotalCommander\wincmd.key

Delete line
PersonalKey=false
in TotalCommanderPortable.ini

run TotalCommanderPortable.exe

Boos.be said...

Thanks this is the good solution

something is wrong cu final TotalCommanderPortable.exe. it doesn't allow multiple instances. latest working executable was 65.7k size.

Bernat said...

You are right.
Replace TotalCommanderPortable.exe (and delete ${APPDIR64} folder).

Will be updated in 9.0a final.

Unknown said...

I have problem with Total Commander, original totalcmd64.exe executes commands (/O /T /R=), but TotalCommanderPortable.exe don`t allow any commands. Any solutions ?

Bernat said...

Replace TotalCommanderPortable.exe with fixed launcher to pass parameters (exept /i and /F).
/O and /N not tested and should be necessary to write AllowMultipleInstances=true in TotalCommanderPortable.ini

Unknown said...

Bernat thanks a lot!!! It`s working now! Thanks for all of you doing!

Unknown said...

Total Commander 9.10ß1 -> doesn't work. when I enter on 1st screen "tc910x32_64_b1.exe" it says "file not found (404)". manually download "tc910x32_64_b1.exe" in same dir as installer gives the same error.

Bernat said...

Thanks for reporting bug.
You have to enter tc910x32_64_b1 (without .exe)

alekk84 said...

install with 64b option checked
don't start at 32bit win7, but work on 64bit win7 and 8
and regkey is blocked

Bernat said...

Tested working and registered 32 and 64 bit.
Problem should be your anti-virus : check if
version.dll
TC64.DLL
winspool.drv
are in App\TotalCommander

alekk84 said...

i dont have anti-virus.
all file are in folder.

i install both 32 and 64 (with checked 64bit)
when i try start tc on pc with win 7 32bit - nothing happens
when start tc on pc with win 7 64bit - tc work good

if i dont check 64bit install option - tc work on win 7 32 bit

and about regkey - with new version i have "please select 1|2|3" window at start

Bernat said...

Beta is registered with one of the several kind of unblacklister (depending of version of windows).
Tested:
Windows XP 32 bit: registered
Windows 7 64 bit: unregistered but registered with Force32=true in TotalCommanderPortable.ini
Windows 10 64 bit: registered in both case.

You should not have problem with 9.0a (valid key) and wait 9.10 final (if a valid key comes out)

You can also search on the web unblacklister or patches, delete the 3 added files and test what is good for you.

Hello,
When I choose French language and save configuration, it's always in English when I start TC. What's strange is that it's ok in the .ini file... Any solution?

Bernat said...

Change to UserDefaultLang=false in TotalCommanderPortable.ini

monk said...

Hello,
I use "TotalCommander_Portable_9.12_x32_64"
and the 32bits version is not registered !
Is there something to do ?

Bernat said...

Check if you have wincmd.keyd in Data\TotalCommander when TotalCommander Portable is running.

monk said...


that's it ! i haven't this file "wincmd.keyd" when i run the x32 version
but i have it with the x64 one
how can i do then ? just copy it ?
thx for return

Bernat said...

Yes this will work: backup wincmd.key from Data\TotalCommander when x64 is running, copy this key in Data\TotalCommander when closed and run x32.

monk said...

it's ok now
i understood how it works !
thanks for your stuff
have a good day

yoohyang said...

Hello.
Can I remove my name appeared in the main title in the front of the title "Total Commander 9.x".
I have a wincmd.key so my name is appeared at the end of the title "Total Commander 9.x" as well.
It looks messy.
Thank you in advance.

Bernat said...

you cannot hide the licence name

Unknown said...

Each time start ask me to press 1,2,3, why?

Bernat said...

No problem with 9.51 RC5

Daniel Ulman said...

Hi Bernat,

Any news about the final version 11.02?

TIA

Bernat said...

If you have a valid key, thanks in advance.

Daniel Ulman said...

Hi Bernat,

I only have this:

Артур Пирожков
264795 Новочепецк (RU)

#283766 Unlimited user licence


It's enough to generate a valid key?

Bernat said...

No, if you have read this in the About of an unpatched Total Commander you should found a 1024 bytes file wincmd.key.
You can test in this portable as explained above: "Your wincmd.key will be used if found in Data\TotalCommander"
