Opera now has a provision for installing the regular version as a portable version. It works perfectly. So why would anyone want to use Opera USB?

I just checked to make sure and it does put one entry into HKCU:

Value Name: Last CommandLine v2 (Value Data: D:\OperaPortable\opera.exe)

That's it. Nothing anywhere else and nothing in Documents & Settings. I can certainly live with that.

I only posted this because I've been using Opera portable this way for sometime and have been wondering why it's still offered on other sites.

Edit: Just for fun I installed the latest version of PortableApps Opera. It doesn't put anything in the registry. The only difference I can see is that Opera portable (from Opera) does not have any subfolders, i.e. app and data. It puts everything in one folder, which I kind of like.

Thanks ltsnow. Do you know if CCleaner works with it?

Not per se, but you can include anything you want in the custom files and folders. Of course, I don't use any cache and I have Opera delete all cookies on exit (except the ones I need) so there really is nothing to clean.
