Any downside to going portable over installed, esp. with browsers or email like Thunderbird?

[QUOTE="conceptualclarity, post: 828491, member: 11916"] For me the biggest upside for portable apps is that PortableApps.com, LiberKey, and SyMenu will find which programs have an update available and do the updating themselves. Saves me a lot of trouble. Would be glad to hear more details about these points. So I should expect not to be able to make portable programs my defaults for particular purposes? It that were the case I'd be better off with doing Maxthon, Thunderbird, and VLC Player as installed. [/QUOTE]
