dbForge Studio for PostgreSQL

(thinking…)

Create a Portable version of dbForge Studio

Our company does not grant us the admin privileges needed to install or update programs on our computers. I would love to have a 'portable' option where the program is installed in our user folders and does not require 'elevation' (admin privileges) to run.

    Dear User,

    Thank you for your suggestion. Currently, we do not offer a portable version of our product, but we plan to explore installation options that won’t require administrator rights in the future.

    In the meantime, as a workaround, you can use third-party tools such as InnoExtract https://constexpr.org/innoextract/. For example, if you download it and run the following command in the Command Line:

    innoextract dbforgepostgresql.exe

    (where dbforgepostgresql.exe is the downloaded installer for dbForge Studio for PostgreSQL), you will obtain a portable version of the product.

    Please note that activation is still required, and it can be done in the same way as with the standard installation.

    Best regards,
    Devart Team
