I just tried the same steps but without doing #3 (I kept it on the single hard drive I use) and the problem still existed.

I then deleted the zip and all the related files I had and downloaded the installer exe version

The installer exe version installed successfully and seems to work correctly in that I can see a GUI and there were no errors when I launched the program.

Hi, Thanks for pointing this out to me. It seems that I forgot to add Common Tools.dll to the portable edition. I have added the link to the working version below. Thanks!
