They're still portable - downloaded and launched every time you select them - but it's easier to access them. There's also support for desktop integration, which adds entries for selected programs to your Start Menu.

A bug in the latest LibreOffice means you can't do something important? No problem, Zero Install can download and run any available earlier version, instead. More control is available, if you need it. Close the program later and it's entirely removed from the system.

Zero Install then downloads a portable version, unpacks it to a new folder so it won't interfere with existing installations, and launches it for you. If you need to run any of these programs, all you need to do is click its Run button. (Other programs are available, with a little searching, or you can add your own.)

Getting started is as easy as unzipping the download and running ZeroInstall.exe.Ī straightforward interface lists 80+ applications: Audacity, Blender, DOSBox, Gimp, KeePass, LibreOffice, Firefox, Media Player Classic Home Cinema, Nmap, PDF Split and Merge, 7-Zip, TightVNC, UltraVNC, CDBurnerXP, Clementine, DVDStyler, Eclipse, FileZilla, Notepad++, VirtualDub, VLC Media Player, WinSCP and more. The program doesn't need installing itself, either. Zero Install is a simple platform which allows users to find and run some popular applications without installing them.
