This section includes procedures for using Personal Knowbase on a portable drive.

 

 

Caveats

 

1.  Program Speed

 

Running from a removable drive is normally slower than running from a hard drive. In particular, please be patient upon exiting the program and wait a moment to allow Windows to finish writing the settings file before removing the device from the computer.

 

2.  Backup Your Data Files

 

Please remember to regularly backup the data files that you store on your portable drive to a safe place on another drive or disk. If a portable drive fails, you don't want it to contain the only copy of your data.
