Re: SABnzbd 1.0.0 (Win10) can not make into portable
This is ancient and problematic behaviour, which led to problems for read-only installations.
We removed it.
Use the -f parameter to force a specific folder. Even the program folder, should you want to.

I am dealing with the same problem.
"Use the -f parameter to force a specific folder. Even the program folder, should you want to."
Could some explain to me what "use the -f parameter ..." means or where to find further information?
Many thanks!

Re: SABnzbd 1.0.0 (Win10) can not make into portable
I had this trouble as well. The "How to make a portable installation" needs to have 2 additional instructions added to it. The portion that reads "Put the SABnzbd.ini file in the same directory as SABnzbd.exe" is no longer applicable as of 1.0.0.
1) The -f or --config-file is now a must and absolutely needs to be used in order to have a portable installation. The instructions can be found under Command Line Parameters. (Example shown below.)
2) In the unusual case that you are running multiple copies of SABnzbd, you will have to add the --new switch.
Example:
G:\Apps\SABnzbd\SABnzbd.exe -fG:\Apps\SABnzbd\
Example for multiple instances:
G:\Apps\SABnzbd\SABnzbd.exe -fG:\Apps\SABnzbd\ --new
