            Bug ID: 100217
           Summary: RFE : portable Windows client
           Product: Spice
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: Other
                OS: Windows (All)
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: virt-viewer
          Assignee: spice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: alexis.hauser at imt-atlantique.fr

Hi, currently, remove-viewer on Windows isn't a "portable version".
What I mean by this : if you copy/paste the directory of installed
remote-viewer on another PC, it won't be able to run because of access required
to registry keys.
One typicall case of use : Citrix sessions. In a citrix session, you can't
install a program normally, like you would do on any windows client. However
you can start some "portable" softwares. 
It can also be very usefull when you are using a Windows client without being
logged in as admin : having a portable version on a USB stick would let the
user start remote-viewer from the portable version without having to install
anything.

Thank you for considering my request.
