PhpStorm as portable?

I have a licence to PhpStorm and I want to use it at work. But I don't have any administrator rights on my computer.

Can I install the program as a portable to any directory without installation wizard?

Re: PhpStorm as portable?

Hi Marina,

You should be able to do this:

1) Download ZIP instead of EXE

2) Unpack it to a desired path

3) Edit bin/idea.properties if necessary (to point to a custom profile location).
