Minecraft Portable is a wrapper application for the Minecraft Launcher that essentially makes it store all of Minecraft’s data in the same directory as the application, instead of the AppData folder. This is especially helpful for portability, but also if you just want to keep all the Minecraft data in one spot. It also does some other things, such as automatic integration with Java portable and drag-and-drop compatibility with mapping tools.

Features:

• Keeps all of the Minecraft data in one, easy to manage folder.
• Makes it super easy to run multiple copies of Minecraft at the same time. All you need to do is create a separate folder for each Minecraft Portable installation and you’re good to go!
• Automatically downloads the launcher, so there’s no need to download/update them manually yourself from the site.
• Easy to use – no complicated DLLs or multiple files. Just download the zip, extract the executable, and run it.
• Auto-login support. Add your username, password, and server URL (optional) to the configuration file, and Minecraft Portable will automatically pass it to the Minecraft Launcher. For safeguarding, it erases the username and password from the configuration and instead stores it in an encrypted data file for future access.
• Drag-and-drop feature so you can use mapping tools – drop the .exe onto ‘minecraftp.exe’ and it will direct the tool to the correct save location.
• Support for Java Portable. Install Java Portable (provided below) to the ‘mcp_data’ folder (can be found in the same directory as Minecraft Portable after first launch).
• Ability to run a portable Minecraft server using Java Portable
• Extremely easy to add custom Java arguments (to increase memory, for example) – all you need to do is edit the configuration file in ‘mcp_data’

Installation:

Regular installation:

• 1. Download the appropriate version of Minecraft Portable above.
• 2. Once downloaded, open the .zip file and extract the executable to any folder you want (you can use WinRAR, WinZIP, etc, but I recommend 7-zip).
• 3. Run the program!

Regular installation + Java Portable:

• 1. Download the appropriate version of Minecraft Portable above.
• 2. Once downloaded, open the .zip file and extract the executable to any folder you want (you can use WinRAR, WinZIP, etc, but I recommend 7-zip).
• 3. Run Minecraft Portable (‘minecraftp.exe’) once. It doesn’t matter if Java isn’t installed, this is only to create the correct folders.
• 4. A folder called ‘mcp_data’ should have been created in the same directory as Minecraft Portable.
• 5. Now, download the Java Portable binaries (download above).
• 6. Extract the files inside to the ‘mcp_data’ folder. The ‘java’ folder should now be in the ‘mcp_data’ folder.
• 7. Run the program! Minecraft Portable will automatically detect Java Portable and run accordingly.
