I have been using TeXnicCenter for a while now, and think it is a great interface. I want to use TeXnicCenter on the computers in the Library, as they have larger monitors, better computers, and faster internet connections. I have my USB 3.0 drive loaded with Miktex Portable, and it works fine. Really, though, I prefer to use TeXnicCenter.

When I read through other posts [here](https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/135012/portable-ps-viewer-with-forward-and-inverse-search) and [here](https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/176227/is-there-a-placeholder-for-the-drive-letter-of-the-texniccenter-installation) and [here](https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/4814/latex-portable-editing-environment) they mention that it is possible to install portable TexnicCenter, but I can't find installation instructions. This [post](http://www.latex-community.org/know-how/latex-editors/76-latex-editors-texniccenter/354-how-to-make-texniccenter-portable) gives some ideas how to do it, but I am concerned it may be outdated.

Has anyone installed TeXnicCenter on a USB drive? Does it work well? How did you do it?

If it isn't possible, what portable platform should I use? Should I stick with MiKtex as my back end? What front end should I use?

For now I'm using TexWorks editor, which is ok, but I'd prefer something with more snazz.

Thanks!
