QuiteRSS Portable allows you to read your RSS feeds from a USB drive or cloud folder on any Windows computer without installing software or losing your settings. Setting Up QuiteRSS Portable

Download: Get the official portable .zip file from the QuiteRSS website or PortableApps.

Extract: Unzip the folder directly onto your flash drive, external hard drive, or cloud folder (like OneDrive or Dropbox).

Launch: Open the extracted folder and double-click QuiteRSS.exe to run the program. Key Configuration for Portability

Keep Data Local: Ensure the QuiteRSS.ini configuration file remains in the same folder as the executable so your feed history travels with you.

Relative Paths: If you link to external tools or browser executables in the settings, use relative file paths so they do not break when your drive letter changes on a new computer. Basic Usage Tips

Add Feeds: Click the + (Plus) icon or press Ctrl + N to paste a website URL or RSS feed link.

Import/Export: Use the File > Import/Export Feeds menu to bring in your existing subscriptions via an OPML file.

Clean Up: Set up automatic cleanup options in Tools > Options > Feeds to delete old articles and keep the portable database file small and fast. To help you set this up perfectly, let me know:
