Hi Michael,

i was wondering if it is possible to install MoI on an USB stick and write protect the stick?
Or does MoI needs internally write to some files, while working with it?

Best regards
Stefan

The MoI v3 Mac version (the one based on Wineskin) needs to run from a writable volume since Wineskin does modify an internal file (info.plist) as part of how it runs.

But all other versions - v3 Windows and v4 for both Mac and Windows, do not need that and so can run from a read-only volume.

Super Michael, thanks!

I need that for Win v3 and later then for Win v4.

Best regards
Stefan
