There might be an already portable version but usually it can get even smaller so download it and continue to the next step. Download the program that you want to make portable.It will compress any exe, dll or other executable (even Playstation executables!) If you didn't already know executable packers create compressed applications that can still be run just like the uncompressed ones. UPX (which stands for Universal Packer for eXecutables) is probably one of the best executable packers. I though I had previeusly written about it but I haven't. This is a great open source executable packer. I also avoided using any commercial tools such as Thinstall. When I say portable I only mean small in size, without unnecessary files and without the need to be installed. Also different people understand the meaning of the word portable differently. Note that many applications cannot be turned into portable ones.
I will try, though, to write some headlines for you. I can't teach you how to make one exactly because this depends on which application you choose.
The purpose of this (late-night) post is to show the the possibility of creating portable applications and to encourage you into doing so. I've written a much better one which you can find here.
