This is not portable by default; it needs an extra step. From the readme:

Version 5 available as digital_clock_5-x64.msi (only 64 bit), use link to website. Universal Extractor will extract. Seems to work fine on windows 11. Similar to version 4. Only difference found is 4 is in taskbar when running, 5 is not. Both are in system tray. |

Neat little app. Uses around 1.0 - 1.5MB RAM. GUI is a little ugly like all SoftwareOK apps, but you'll probably want to start this in the system tray and forget it! :) |

Been using this a lot in screen sharing meetings and demonstrations. Works well, but often get a "didn't shut down properly" message and have to restart on Win7x64. Very lucky to have it. |
7+ Taskbar Tweaker allows you to configure various aspects of the Windows taskbar including mouse configuration, thumbnail handling, pinned items and button combining.

The stable version (as linked here) doesn't work after the latest Windows update. The beta version (available from the website) works fine, though.

Hi, the link downloads the latest version (v5.11.3) and it didn't prompt for portable install. Also, Windows stopped the file running and I had to manually allow it.
