Google Chrome PortableIf you are one of the hardcore Google Chrome fan and you are very much used to it then you will definitely want to carry it with you wherever you go.  Having a portable browser can make your life a lot easier. You can have your favorite bookmarks, your saved passwords and everything else with you at any point of time. You’ll only need to plug in your pen drive and start the browser.

All you have to do is download the compressed file from the link given below and extract it in your removable device. Then go to the folder named PortableGoogleChrome and run the ChromeLoader file to get started. No installation is required so you can use it on computers with limited rights as well.

The browser is having all the features which you get on your regular google chrome but you might see some minor difference in performance which is pretty much acceptable as you are running it from a portable device instead of your hdd. If at any time you feel like uninstalling it then just simply delete the folder and you are done.

You can download the latest version of portable Google Chrome from the link given below and if you want to update your portable browser you can simply go to the same site and download the newer version again.
