The problem was that it is not possible to use the word 'Stereo' to create a shorcut so I deleted that word and now it is only (G:) (E:) don't know why there is two direction but the computers drive have a partition so it uses C: and D: is the reason I named them Work and Stereoīoth have the same content as I copy the finished music to 'Stereo' but now the 'Stereo' have a portable install.

To know what drive I use at the moment when both are connected to the same computer for copying etc. and the other is used for my Hifi system to play music. Anyway, the problem was this: I use two HDDs one wich I named Work and the other one Stereo so they backup each other, one at my office P.C to rip, tag etc. I found out what was wrong I don't know what version of Windows you use I'm on win 8.1 so the image you provided do not look the same as mine. Once you have a shortcut you will run the portable version of MC by opening the external drive with Windows Explorer, and double-clicking on the new shortcut.Īctually, I wouldn't be surprised if there is already a shortcut on the external drive to run the portable version. But if you change Windows Explorer to view files as thumbnails for the root directory of the external drive, or where you copied the shortcut to, it will look and work like an icon.

Use that copied shortcut, or make another one, move it to the root directory of your external drive, then right-click on it and select Properties, then edit the information in the Target field so that it points to the Portable MC executable on the external drive. That is the file that the shortcut needs to point to.īut simply, you copied a shortcut earlier, but it pointed to the wrong place. Search the external drive for the file 'Media Center 24.exe'. I haven't installed a portable version and I'm not going to, so I don't know exactly where the MC executable for the Portable version is on the external drive to advise where to point a shortcut.
