Known issues:
CC 2019 Suite just came out and activation method completely changed from past years. First patched versions are out, but they still have some minor issues. (even install version, it's not a portable issue!) For InDesign CC 2019: •
welcome screen doesn't load (loads forever). Didn't find a way to disable it in settings, but just change Workspace in top-right corner to start working :)fixed in v14.0.3+ • a strange C++ Runtime library 'vulcan' error at startup (see comments for details), this is not experienced always, not sure what causes it and what are the consequences, such as bugs/crashes/problems when using software after that error. None so far! If you experience any, please let me know, thanks. Maybe fixed in 14.0.3/15.0, if you still experience it let me know.Portable features:
- No installation required
- No Admin rights needed
- Pre-activated

v2025 released (24H2 fixed) - new comments should refer to latest version
THANK You – you are the best!
welcome 😉
v2020 released - new comments should refer to latest version
Hi there – first of all thank you very very much for all the cool programs, all the cool and working portables and the super nice support on this site. I just installed the Setup 2020 for inDesign – but the program always closes short after launching (splashtop just building up and then the progam is closing and ending itself without any error or failure report. Do I need “Bridge”? I am using Windows 1903 – Running the program as admin. By the way your Setup 2020 for Photoshop is working fine on my computer. Keep up the good work.
thanks for notice I will test more, maybe you need the procedure included in illustrator with ACC installation and all
Did the latest win10 update break the 2019 portable? It runs if there is nothing in the sandbox. After the first run (something created in the sandbox folder), it gives me some sort of permission error and won’t load. Photoshop and Illustrator 2019 portable still work though
which update? 1909 just came out, but I guess you mean 1903. Read FAQ page point 7 for more info
I can’t download the portable version without downloading any apps for chrome i have to install than.
Pls help me because i need the portable version for my job education service.
thanks for help and thanks for this free version
you’re clicking some ads, click text links in middle of grey box
I also work with Win10. I only install a few programs – which I really need so that the system is not left with waste. I even uninstalled the program and reinstalled it, but the result remains. The 2018 version of Indesign works as well as the last portable version I downloaded here. Only this latest full install doesn’t work. But if it works for you and not for me, I see the problem on my PC.
contact by email for further help
Hello, super work, THANK YOU.
I have a problem – when I start the fully installed 2020 (v15.0) program, everything starts, but as soon as the program is on, it turns itself off. When I open a file, it starts and immediately after the start I get the message if I want to save the file before closing it. Looks like right after the start automatically the “X” in the upper right corner would be activated to close the program. No matter if I press yes / no / cancel, the program will stop.
That is super strange, works perfectly on a clean w10pro machine, what os are you on?
Hey, THOP,
thank you so much for your work. I downloaded ID 2019, when I open it it does nothing. The command tabs don´t open up, nothing is clickable in the program. I have already unzipped it several times and the same result. What can I do to make it work?
Thank again!
try running it from a usb stick
Why do you make many changes in the program system? What’s the need? I don’t understand…
what changes?
I want the english version, but my sistem is portuguese brazilian! I don’t use Indesign in my language, how do I change it?
Not sure sorry, can’t make anybody happy 😅 put your system in english…
Hi, I enjoy your work. For some reason the apps don’t work on my Windows 10 machine anymore. I get the loading screen with THOP, but after that the application crashes. I have already shut down all anti virus software. Anyone has an idea?
w10v1903 has some problems with older portables sorry I have to fix it
