  1. Hi Lucas, congratulations for the excellent program! It was recommended to me but i don't know what to install: the Instalable version or the portable version? I have a notebook with windows 7. What is the diference?

  2. They are the same,
    Instalable is more easy to install, you don´t need to think where to install, and it creates the links to the program, and inform to windows which is the way to uninstall.
    Portable, only ask for a folder to save the program, and nothing more, it less intrusive,
    Installable is best choice for most users.
